Camping trailers

Hi Lloyd
We had a track soft floor camper trailer which we sold and brought a Kimberley. We have found the Kimberley fantastic to use and no operation problems. It is fast to set up and pack away and practical. The only thing we have noticed is a lot less storage room in the Kimberley than the Track but other than that no other faults we have travelled around 10,000 k's in the Kimberley.
Cheers Lee & Nicole

Lloyd Mac,

Following a lot of research, we purchased an Aussie Swag Rover LX two years ago. The decision was based on solid construction, top quality components, attention to detail, the kitchen design and plenty of stowage space. We have now travelled over 20,000 km including some very rough country with the AS and no problems at all. It takes a few set ups and pack ups to become familiar with the unit. We are really happy with the AS.

In that level of camper I might suggest you take a look at Australian Off Road Campers Odyssey models.

I've no affiliation, just a happy customer who looked at the two you mention before we bought ours.

G'day Lloyd,

I too looked at the KK's however, after a recommendation from this site also went and looked at the Pioneer C/T. I hadn't looked at the Pioneer C/T so I decided to wander off and check them out. I was very impressed with them so ended up ordering the Pioneer Onyx camper and must say I have been very pleased with it. It is very well engineered and built extremely tough to handle severe off road travel. I think what changed my mind about purchasing a KK (and I must admit KK's are a very nice camper) was the weight and the $$$$$ differences.

The Pioneer is worth a look. There was an Onyx for sale in the trader section however, I've noticed that someone has snapped it up because it was a bargain at the price the owner was asking.

Good luck in your search. There are heaps of very helpful threads on this site on what to look for and how to make a decision when purchasing a camper trailer and well worth a read.

Cheers.

I am also a VERY happy owner of a Pioneer Argyle SE camper trailer.Very well built and very quick to put up---3 minutes without the annexe.I have been across the top and up to Cape York and recently around Tassie with no problems---definately one to look at.

I try to avoid giving brand recommendations as its horses for courses... but in our personal opinin the best hardfloor offroad camper that suits a family that we've seen in all our travels is the Camprite TL8 - made in WA, so not sure if you've seen one. We don't currently own a camper trailer but if we ever do it would would be the Camprite (we regularly do trips with friends that have one so very familiar with it as our kids are in it all the time!). The Ultimate on the other hand looks like a very good CT for a couple but too much extra canvas to setup for more people. Good luck!

We have an Aussieswag - fantastic camper. The slideout swing around kitchen is their main unique feature. A strong off road camper.

We took ours across the Simpson in 2004.

Would thoroughly recommend them.
