Thanks John,

Yes caravans have come a long way in the last few years and they don't come much better than this model :)

Very comfortable indeed! But we will need to sell it :(

Come say hello if your planing the Gold Coast beach parks this Xmas & new year

Cheers John & Louise

Thanks for the reply John. I am a solo traveller these days due to losing my bride to cancer 5 years ago but you were not to know that. I would get lost in something that size so no I am not interested in buying. Nothing was actually said about it being for sale in your original post and if just showing to us would have been suited to 'Show us your rig'. Lovely set up though and agree, a good buy for someone out there.



Keep safe on the roads and out there.

Hi John and Louise
My partner and I are about to embark on a 5.5 month trip to Canada and the US (with our 3 kids) and we plan to do what you guys have done. We plan to by a travel trailer and truck or SUV in Vancouver and hopefully sell it again in Vancouver at the end. By the look of your trailer, our budget will be significantly smaller but just the same we'd be keen to hear any tips you might have regarding buying, selling and travelling around (crossing borders) etc.. We did a 3 month RV (rental) trip in 2015 around various parts of the US and Canada so we're not complete novices!

Where did you buy your trailer and SUV? The van was clearly new but what about the SUV?

Look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers Chris

Hi Chris,

Sounds like fun, you will have a ball.

The #1 rule if your going in peak season do your homework and book book book............the best parks are where you want to stay as does every 400 mil Canadians & Americans....you have no doubt herd about the free state parks but there fist come basis and usually only 2 / 3 days ....sometimes no hook ups

You have a choice in buying and selling in Canada or across the border in say Seattle Washington where is is a larger choice.

If your planing on shipping the trailer to Aust its best to buy new and an Aust known brand,if not used is ok.

I have a couple of contacts in Washington state for a used SUV and a good trailer dealership [family] in Fresno CA who will deliver to say Vancouver.

Might be best to give us a call as there is soooow much to know, especially if your traveling in May - Aug
