    New is up to $67k list :eek:

    Towed a Kimberley Kamper around Australia 5 years ago - was a pig to tow, but pretty nice accommodation. Took it into the Bungle Bungles, along the Gibb and up to Cape Leveque amongst other places.

    Bloody heavy though.

    A lot of Kimberley kampers out there but they are bloody expensive! Something like $80K I have been told! You can get a decent off road dual axel van for that.

    I wonder how much an Oka would be to rent, or if you could rent them.

    I know my wife's argument without even asking...

    "How many hotels could we stay in for $67,000?"

    There's another option for those DIY'ers
    Build your own box trailer set-up with a roof top tent...

    Not a big fan of cramped tents. Need something I can stand-up in these days. Often these days I find myself doing 'paperwork' on the edge of a camp-bed...a little difficult sitting cross-legged in a small tent :(
