My recent back injury changed my life more than I could have imagined. First was the realization that I would have to sell the camper trailer and find a substitute. Then some worry about work.
Over the last couple of months I’ve Google, and probably made over a hundred phone calls to manufacturers, dealers and acquaintances. In the end it always comes back to:
1. What will it be used for, and
2. Am I capable moving it, setting it up etc.
At the end of the day, it’s give and take. You get benefits from one design over the other, but in doing so, loose something in the process.
The final decision came down to the Pioneer Argyle SE or the Goldstream Crown. The latter has more features than my house!
For the life of me I couldn’t make a decision, then sat down one night and concentrated on what I enjoy, rather than fit for purpose. That’s when the decision was made in favour of the Pioneer.
There is a bit of misery attach to this I might add. Once you start adding options, the eyeballs start to
rock around in their sockets as the price goes through the bloody roof!!!
The deal will be done early next week and I’ll revert to something resembling a balanced human being.
Another couple of points I’d like to make for those thinking about the purchase of a camper trailer:
1. Purchase the highest quality product you can afford. I can’t stress this enough.
2. If you don’t have confidence in the dealer to support the guarantee, walk away.
3. Only select the options you really need.
4.
Check those small things: will it fit in the garage, can I open the rear door of the car with the trailer attached.
5. Ask the dealer or seller to stand back and allow you to open up the trailer and repack it.
Hope this helps some folks with their buying decisions.
