Hi Sparky,
Thats exactly what we used to do, have all the gear stored in the shed and everytime we went camping we had to lug it all out, double
check we had everything, load it all into & on the Patrol, then on our return do the reverse.
It was a major exercise to go anywhere, now we can decide at the drop of a hat that we will go away and its only the time it takes me to decide what food to buy and which clothes we need, and then we can be driving out the drive.
Since we bought the CT at the end of Sept 05, we have been averaging two weekends a month away. That was unheard of before. The kids are getting to the beach all the time and loving it, and we're getting some
bush camping as
well.
I truly believe its the best investment we could have made for our lifestyle.
Currently planning on a 4 week trip around central oz and the
simpson desert mid year so this has necessitated our staying
home a little more at present to do some mods to both the camper and Patrol, but as freezer mentioned above its now a matter of planning which weekends we will stay at
home rather than when we can get away.
Do your research, and get exactly what you want, their not cheap but from my observation, they seem to hold their value.
Good Luck
Kerrie
