Hi Pat,

I know they recently won a Camper Trailer magazine award and they have all the gizmos (diesel heater!) but they're expensive for a soft floor.
The Complete Campsite

I looked at the 'new' Trak Shak but I couldn't see anything 'new' to make me update my 2003 model to the current one with $15,000 out of pocket!

Cheers,

We had a look at some hard floors as well (Kimberley etc) but they seem to be restricted in area by the length of the trailer. Sure they have all the gismos as well and cost around the same amount(40 large) for the top of the range. No ropes or tent pegs are a great thing.

Some nice touches but looks a little heavy and not overly robust for heavy work. Nonetheless there are some ideas I might incorporate in mine.

I must agree with Wayne B they are only a box trailer and a tent. I have never owned one and do not feel inclined to do so.
When I first started camping we had four kids, two dogs, a Hi Ace van and a 6'x4' trailer. In the trailer was a removable cage where the dogs travelled but the cage was constructed with a "roof rack" Most of our camping gear was carried on the trailer roof rack including cooking stove and gas bottles. We had two reasonably sized tents,one for mum & dad and one for the kids and it was the kids responsibility to erect their own tent. Both tents were Canadian made canvas tents and not cheep at the time but each less than $300.00.
I believe that the cost of these camper trailers is exorbarant and getting close to the cost of a good used caravan.

We had a look and were a bit stunned at the price but they do have all the bells and whistles. Funnily enough we ended up buying the display model of the Mountain Trail Extended Escape model and are very happy with it. Very well built and optioned the price
