Think I will go out Friday. I am sure there is a few things I don't need if I look hard enough.

I tried using "Fathers Day" as justification, but was reminded that I'd already used that excuse! Might have to draw down early on Christmas.....
I'd even take the kids, and spend quality time with them. Hmmmmm the ideas are brewing.

I came, I saw and I spent some money.
Picked up a pop top cover, privacy screen both from Camec and mirror extensions from another vendor. Camec had genuine specials, it is a shame Coast to Coast didn't.
Got there about 10.30 and left a bit after 12.30. Got rained on a little bit and it flogged down whilst driving home.

I didn't spend any money.
Was good to check out what's out there and walked away still happy with my Discovery 17.55.5SH.
Only other layout which i liked was the Starcraft pop top 17ft with double bunk and shower.
Helped my friend with finding a van and watched as a $85K van turned into a $110K. Interesting seeing a salesman explain why their van is $30K dearer than a Jayco. Those are real expensive hinges? Does an overhead cupboard need to support my weight when it will only being holding a couple of jars of vegemite?
I was surprised to see that a lot of the high end vans don't have hot dipped gal chassis. I gather Jayco can do it because of the number they are producing.
Oh well your chassis is completely rusted out, but hey you can still swing off your cupboards.
