hi Lex The hilux is a SR5 08 3ltr turbo.I thought towing a ton of camper trailer on road no probs but some of the sandy tracks here in WA would surely be a workout.regards Phil

I have a 3ltr turbo dual cab. Tows a Tvan, about the same weight, without a problem.

Hi Dave and Michelle,so what was ur prefrence an inside kitchen on the ultimate or outside on the camprite.there are only 2 of us so yea the ultimate is probably the go though there is about a 20 k price difference, we just want to make the right choice.we travelled for 7 months on the east coast a year ago and with a slide on camper but found that cooking outside wasn't always practical especially in southern states.I still have the slide on camper if anyone is in the market for one.It is a trackdata with a poptop roof 2 berth suitable for an ex or single cab ute.regards Lucky phil

Phil - its such a tough decision isn't it. For me as cook, personally I think I would prefer the outside kitchen as it's more what I consider "camping". I find the Ultimate much more suited to people that like/need to be indoors when camped so this may be something to consider. I like cooking but don't like to be "indoors" when everyone else is having the fun "outside" and found this an issue with the Ultimate setup. Often, with the indoors kitchen you have to lock yourself in - I also find the upstairs bit a bit annoying during the hectic cooking/serving hour. But in bad weather, it wins as you can cook, clean teeth and go to bed without going outdoors. Some prefer the more refined kitchen setup of the Ultimate - its nicely done, and works well as a kitchen but for me it takes the roughness out of camping (which is some of the appeal I think). For us as a family of 4, we wouldn't consider the Ultimate being right for us due to bedding limitations but for two it is very opulent - massive bigger than King bed - and has a nicer indoor lounge/table setup than you get in the Camprite and it has lots of clever hiddy-holes for packing things. You can even access the fridge (small upright) in the Ultimate (gas/12v) by crawling in the door when packed up eg. for lunch which is convenient but then if you drive away from camp for the day you haven't got the fridge with you unless you store a second fridge in your vehicle - the alternative is also a drawback in the Camprite (as with any other option) in that if the main fridge is in the vehicle then you need to ensure you park the vehicle when camped near the camper kitchen to avoid running back and forth - or have a good cooks assistant! It's these day to day logistics that you need to think through to make the right decision - oh and the $$ of course! For our family situation the choice would be camprite - we just haven't taken the step to order one yet - maybe after we get the next CSR trip done and we're over the swags!! in the meantime we park our swags alongside our friends camprite and watch them with envy.
best of luck with your choice - there is an Ultimate owners group website with a forum which I hear is very good if you want to find out more from other owners but it sounds to me like this is a budget/personal decision for you.
Regards Michelle
