I'm on the maybe list.
Depends on doc visits and stuff.

Even though it's not a camping trip,
I'd like to bring the camper trailer for a shake down run.
If thats ok.

Add me to the Maybe List. Going wheeling with Andrew Wale and Jeep club on the 3rd in the Yarra State Forest so I might just turn it into a camping weekend as well.

I think the trip will be rated 'wet'. How well does the camper float? Some of the river crossing might be up a bit.

Camper has a better fording depth than the Vitara.
I happy to put it into anything I'd put the Vit through.
Anything fast flowing could be a problem for all cars.
I take all responsibility for it.
Is ok to say no, if you rather I didn't bring it.
