Am researching on-line all the time so when I can get on the road I will have an idea on what type of rig I want. Like the reviews on the Baily Caravans (UK Brand) that are selling in Australia and made here for our conditions. I'd be solo so would need only the smallest model and then would have a vehicle to...

I love it, yes it is cold, but...

Not at all convenient so we d...
