I am planning to travel along the West Coast during the winter months (June - September) next year and some people tell me it is not necessary to book Caravan Parks in advance.

I am looking for a hard body slide-on camper to suit a 2.5 turbo diesel cab/chassis crew cab. My budget is a maximum of $18,000 for the slide-on unit. Is this budget a realistic spend for something up to 15 years old and can any of the Nomads comment on recommendations. Any advice would be appreciated.

Yes, the grossly overweight old guy, desperately in need of a shave, wearing a red suit is on his way soon. Have YOU been good this year & what would you like him to bring YOU on the big day?
