Pioneer Camper Trailers

Hi Beemer,
We bought a Pioneer "onyx" last year and are really pleased with it. They modified the tracking and wheels so it was the same as our 100 series, it is functional, rides well, holds a swag of gear, well balanced, no problem with dust and easy to setup. We did the gibb river road,the track from Balladonia to Israelite bay (a shocker in places) and most of the holland track.
There was a challenge with one of the hubs but this was traced to the improper fitting of the bearings and is no longer a problem.
We found their after sales service excellent and will recommend them, and no, we are not associated with them.
Regards, Jeff

Hi Beemer, we have an Odyssey ZR from AORC. We find it really good. We had some minor issues at first due to them making some changes just for us. The after sales service of Steve and Rhonda is great. They now have a good service agent here in Melbourne.
I would recommend one!

Have a look at Aussie Swag as well. Made in Brisbane. Rugged construction, and a great kitchen arrangement.

highly recomend them...we have no affliation with them whatsoever....

Beemer,

We have owned an Onyx for 2 years now. A few teething problems but well supported by the Pioneer people. Certainly no dust problems and I can operate the opening/closing by myself. It has travelled about 15000k's, mostly roads and fencelines or bushtracks.

It's capable of going anywhere a standard Patrol will go.

We've found it good to be able to deal directly with the manufacturers also.

Take a good look around though,

For chassis & suspension design you won't beat a Tvan, the rest is just personal choice.

Hi Beemer

We have just returned from our first trip away in our new Pioneer Argyle SE, heaps of storage on board, now dust or water ingress and very easy on the road. Very easy to setup and we got better as we went along. We have had very few problems since we purchased in June.

G'day everyone,

Thankyou for your imput, We have been so use to camping with tents that the descison to look at camper trailers has become quite interesting. Thoughts go through my mind of being stuck in the Alpine somewhere due to poor judgment with a trailer on the back. For us it is a new education, It will be a hard choice of what type to purchase. My wife certainly loves the idea of an easy set up kitchen and I like the idea of just pulling up somewhere and having a simple set up. Although we work very well together as a team on each trip and we have managed to usually set up quickly it would be nice to have a few of the creature comforts. Price versus fitout and durability will be the next factor to look at.
Thanks
