Piggyback camper

The Piggyback campers were manufactured in Bundaberg up until last year, they were probably the best quality and best designed of the tray backs campers.

I don't have one myself but have looked over them quite thoroughly. They ceased trading due to ill health.

Julian d Do you have some photos of your setup would love to see them if possible

Wats the north star like mate.. They are more of a on road camper arnt they?

"defiantly the best slide on camper on the market"
Not totally convinced there Julian. Doesn't look to be a fast errect/packup unit, wet canvas folds onto bedding, wasted space around plastic tubs & a bit heavy. Have been researching several new one's that have some very interesting features doing the shows lately for a future purchase.
I'm finding the trayback concept though is certainly the best way to travel the remote areas of Oz.
Cheers Craig..............

Mate i can have this thing folded out and ready to cook/sleep in 2 mins. as for the wasted space? i was up the cape for 8 weeks and still had empty draws... i weighed it up the cape and it was 860kg fully loaded with a 20hp outboard in the back.. best feature if ya hungry you can pull over and have ya outside stove cookin away instantly..

Wow impressive, the canopy must be built far lighter than they look with nearly 400kg of equipment on board & all that canvas. What's it weigh dry do you know?
While 2 minutes setup is ok, you're still 4 times slower than the fastest canves/alloy trayback ;-)
Cheers Craig............

Image Could Not Be FoundImage Could Not Be FoundHi Guys, we own a true Piggyback Camper, built by Craig & Michelle in Bundy,
after searching for 2years, finally found a unit that was not too heavy, only 480kg empty, obvoiusly they ary slightly with options fitted etc, as for storage they have more usable space than anything I have seen before or since. I have had it 5years now, one of the first alluminium units built, it has never missed a beat, can set up in 2 -5mins, & cooking dinner or ready for bed, quickest setup I have ever come across. We have done lots of exploring with it, the Simpson, CSR, Kimberleys, Cape York, Tassie & more, it has always allowed us to go where ever we have wanted to go, have travelled in convoy a few times, we were always first set up & first packed up each night & morning.

Sadly the time has come to part company with Miss Piggy, she has served us really well, ours is a series1, a couple of pics attached

cheers Peter
