Buying a Camper Trailer

For many campers the decision over the 'living quarters' poses the greatest quandary in the pre-trip planning. Other than a wide range of trailers,

I've been looking CT's comparing I've been googling and market direct keep appealing to me. Powder or gal, electric brakes or not, I've priced a set of off road, the cost of them and difference between powder and gal is pointing me towards powder, gal is obvious Pro but really, good sealing and maintenance is it worth the extra $$$. If anyone knows of a bargain or simply a better place don't hesitate in letting me know.

Mate
Do not just buy one.
There are places that hire them, and if I was you, I would do 8 or 10 weekend hire trips, over 12 or 18 months, with a different camper each time.

At least you will decide if you really want one, after that, and be able to check them out, all first hand

Cheers

What bucky says is a great way to start the other way is to attend some of the camping and outdoor shows that are happening around the country.
Then write down what you would like, also waht you really need as a minimum.
Also remember where you want to go. Its no use buying a top of the line off road camper if you only intend going to the nearest van park.
Try not to rush you may regret wot you get

Yes, I'd concur with Bucky. We hired a Challenge offroad from the mob at Rydalmere. We ended up buying the unit we hired. Done 100+ nights in the thing since we bought it. Love it!!
