Hi. New member, just saying g’day


Hi to everyone.  This is Andy and Marti.  We are new to the forum.  We have just bought our second caravan after about 10 years between the 1st and this one.  We have finally been able to pick-up our new Crusader.  We ordered in Feb 21, paid the building deposit in Mar 21 and collected in May 22.  Delays due to Covid restrictions on the production line and supply chain issues.  So this caravan is a Crusader Excalibur Kingsman.  Our intent is to use the next 12 months or maybe a bite less and set it up so that we can escape to the road.  We want to be able to be on the road for as long as our health holds up and we are able to see this great country and experience as much as we can, whilst we can.  This van will certainly let us live with space and comfort.  Our tug is a Ford Ranger Wildtrack.

So although we have caravaned before, man things and technology have certainly changed, so I have much new to learn and a lot to re-learn.  Browsing through the forum threads, there is certainly a wealth of knowledge and tricks and hacks.  Between this and YouTube, probably not much that isnt covered, but hey, I really hope that folks here have patience with what I am sure will be some dumb questions to come.  Pictures to come.

Welcome to the gang Andy and Marti, enjoy here and out in the playground.

No question is stupid, if you know the answer you wouldn't ask the question. The bigger problem is, some answers could be long winded and confusing you even further or from Xspurts.




Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

I hope that it is not too late for me to say, welcome to the forum, Andy and Marti

In my opinion, there is no such thing as a dumb question, and I have found, that there are plenty of friendly and helpful people, on this forum

Hope that there are many happy and enjoyable road trips ahead of you
