Escape Offroad was a small business located in Adelaide, South Australia which
had available for hire two styles of camper trailers designed to be towed
mostly by Four Wheel Drive vehicles to remote, out of the way places.
Here is the story of how they had become hooked on the camper trailer experience.
After years of camping in a dome tent and all of their
gear stowed under a tarp on the back of a 4WD Rodeo
Diesel tray top ute they upgraded to a Jackaroo and Spirit
camper trailer in early 2001.
What a difference!!! No more sleeping on the ground,
hoping air beds didn’t fail and having an area to sit at
a table undercover in poor weather.
The greater storage facilities and being able to set up
an awning to give protection from the sun were huge
benefits which made camper trailer holidays so much
better than tent holidays.
And what sort of places had they visited in their camper
trailer you ask?
They had long weekend trips to Roxby Downs/Andamooka,
Yorke Peninsula, South Australia’s Riverland (Barmera –
Renmark), Flinders Ranges & Arkaroola, Little Desert
National Park(Western Victoria), Robe on the Limestone
Coast, Goolwa (Horseshoe Bay) and The Grampians in
Victoria.
Longer trips have included Central Australia (Ayers
Rock, Alice Springs & Chambers Pillar), Eyre Peninsula &
Nullabor Plain for Whale watching, Sydney & the New
South Wales South coast, The Victorian High country and
The Murray River in Victoria from Yarrawonga to Mildura.
Their set up gave them all the comforts of home:-
Carrying a porta potti and a 12volt shower, which gave hot showers in the privacy of a change tent
when camping with others.
In mid 2003 they started to think about upgrading camper
trailers and after much investigation decided on the
Tvan available from Track Trailers in Melbourne.
Once this decision was made they thought they would hire one
for a long weekend to check it out however the closest
hire Tvan was in Melbourne with a 2 week minimum hire.
They proceeded with their purchase without hiring.
However they realised that in Adelaide there was a need
for a quality unit such as the Tvan to be available for
hire for periods of less than 2 weeks.
They had for HIRE – the new Tvan, Spirit camper
trailer and 4WD accessories such as GPS, recovery gear,
engel fridge, change tent & 12v shower, and a winter
campfire kit which included an open fire hotplate/grill
BBQ, camp oven, billy & jaffle iron.
