Not just the Gall Boys go Off Road : SLR Caravans

[RobertRyan]

SLR normally make Off Road Motorhomes . In this case they are using a 6.7litre Ford Diesel to tow their smallish off Road Caravan


Normal tow vehicle

Vehicles very well built with clean looking interiors

Super jealous of all the great trailers in Australia. I'm looking for something just like that here in the US, but we don't have anything that even comes close.

We have Adak and VMI, but they're still not even close.

Is the duct tape in the SLR photo #2 an extra-cost option?

But seriously, thanks for sharing the cool stuff from OZ.

Just spotted it myself, around the vent on that one photo.

Duct tape, fixes anything.

Ranking within the latest top ten of Off Road Caravans is the Trakmaster, at No 3 the SLR is No 2, but others think different


This start up Company New Age with their Commando is supposed to be very good, but it's interior is too antiseptic, great for cleaning, but not looking at

Kedron the Gall Boys are now ranked 6th, so it is a tough market

Now there's an adventure I could go for.

Looks like fun, and neat looking rigs!

Love the interiors! sure wish there was a variety here. We are looking at future replacement and the 4 seasons are nice but blah as far as I'm concerned in interior décor. Also heavy and floor layout for small is not so good. Thanks for posting these

[RobertRyan]

Meanwhile the Gall Boys Kedron Caravans also from Queensland like SLR have gone for a contemporary interior look

Nice looking set up.

You could use a Japanese truck tow these when they start wandering north of 10,000lbs, but that would be like using a sledgehammer to crush a walnut.

An example , vast overkill. Not that manoeuvrablbut a 4x4, great if your Caravan weighs 70,000lbs

Beautiful! Those are some serious tires on that trailer -- the next level up has tank treads, I guess. It's a pity that the lovely interior is going to get all muddy and dusty from the occupants' boots, but the price of boondocking is eternal sweeping.

Throw in red dust as fine as talcum powder.All of these Off Roaders have a negative pressure system to keep that out

The eastern Sierra service which places a trailer on the site of your choice for the duration of your vacation could use one of these!
