[QUOTE=hunty;1234655]Hi guyz
I thought some of you needed a little help maintaining your Jeeps so I thoughtfully provided this little flow chart to help youz all out! LoL

That will cut down on weight and spares / tools to have in vehicle. just add 2 shifters 1 small 1 large. LOL.

Smile My New Camper Trailer - mid 80's

Hi Guyz
I have just recently dumped the Roof Top Tent in favour of a light weight camper trailer, I really loved the roof top tent for the following reasons;


1. Jeep is shorter LoL.
2. Easier to reverse.
3. Great breeze up in the tent.
4. Doesnt take much toll on my Jeeps 4x4 ability.
5. Cost under $1k - Ebay.


Why did I ditch it for an old second hand camper trailer?...;
1. I like to setup camp and then go wheelin!
2. I hate zipping up the dust proof / water proof bag. Hate is probably not a strong enough term. It just pissed me off and $h!t3d me to tears!
3. I almost fell down the ladder a couple of times trying to stagger out for a leak in the middle of the night. LoL
4. I like the extra space (and my old 42inch plasma fits nicely on the mattress).
5. It only weighs 210kg's and doesn't require checking to register.
6. loads of storage space.
7. Doesnt take much off my GVM (21kg).
8. I get better fuel economy towing it than than I got with the Roof Top Tent.


Just went camping with my 4 kids + 1 extra boy friend & 1 sons best friend, I piled on top of the camper trailer;
2x Tents.
3 swags.
1 BBQ & gas bottle.
1 waeco fridge.
tarps.
folding chairs.
Plasma TV inside on the queen size bed.
6 fishing rods & tackle.
camp furniture inc table, cooking surface and sink.
microwave, toaster & Cappuccino maker.
Sleeping bags pillows and bags of personal fx / clothing


I had a great weekend with my kids and love my new camper.
cheers Hunty

Hahaha love the plasma now that's getting away from it!! Lol I have a little 19" LCD DVD that stays in the camper... Camping seems about the only time I get free nights to chill and catch up on movies!!
Love the new setup, more my style!
