Thats a pretty nice set-up. I have a ton of friends in Australia and almost all of them have some sort of caravan, its funny they can have this tiny thing that folds out into a darn superdome. My friend Jody just moved from one caravan park right on the beach because everytime she would walk out the annex there would be a snake, 3 foot lizard or dingos hangin out sniffin the bbq. Guess that beats when she was in Northern territory with the 15+ foot salties. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice! I was especially impressed with how the kitchen can be accessed from inside or outside

I wonder what that company could fit in a full size truck model! A shopping mall?

Pretty neat.

Wow that setup is amazing but looking at the website $40,000 is a little steep for something I will haul on the back of my truck lol but its an amazing piece of equipment.

Something else to add to my lottery list. I think a diesel Ranger from South America would also be on that list, be the perfect vehicle to mount that camper on.

The south american 3.2 powerstroke is coming to america in 2014 in the ford van. The ugly short one. Not a ranger, but if it might make its way here in a ranger soon if the people will buy them.

Is it Australia dollars? A few years ago US bucks were worth half of Aussie duckets. The US dollar being down is good. But it makes foreign stuff pricey. Which protects US stuff, because it makes foreign stuff pricey.

So start a US company which makes that product.

Wow, that's amazing. I want one...just because. My simple $30 4-man Coleman dome is more than enough for my needs and camping. What I need are more places where I can drive into wilderness and not have to pay for a turn-key campsite.
