Thats like using a spade to stir your tea in a dainty cup. The Bush Lapa is made especially light so that it is easy to manouver ..Guess folks can do what they like with their moneyWe saw people at Stormsriver with a bush lapa trailor parking it with his remote control.

Re: Caravan or Trailer Camping
We went to Gauteng Pretoria last Week and took delivery of Our Summit Everest Off Road Trailer from the Factory in Pretoria and then had 4 nights as the only campers at Willemsrus Rest Camp in Dinokeng Game Reserve North of Pretoria to see if there were any problems before the long trek back to PE . Verdict ..Happy Wife = Happy me !!
