One thing I do really like about the Aussie campers is the side entry. It seems very common there as flat beds seem very common as well. You have to go so big to get the side entry in North America. I have had a side entry in the past and loved it. Just too heavy for the truck I had at the time.

One thing Americans miss is the donor vehicle for the one with a slideout. I have just posted in the 5th Wheelers forum about it

And yeah I’d say it looks LESS top-heavy than many American campers on tall 4x4 American pickups!

Right on both counts! For work vehicles flatbeds very common

No. about the same as others. COG is fairly low. ALL Conventional TC’s are saiboats
