Hi all, my partner and I have just bought and are picking up today, a brand new (to us), 1999 Prado petrol. Next weekend we are picking and even brand newer aussie jay crusher camper. We are obviously very excited to start a new chapter in our lives.
So hello to fellow aussie campers.

Welcome to The Show guys, hope you enjoy the ride.

If you are new to the 4WD & CT world, you might consider a 4WD driver training course, most 4WD clubs will run them, check you local yellow pages for info.

Buying new stuff is always fun, hope to see you out & about some time & don't forget,  :worthles:

Regards

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?  (Homer J Simpson).
