WE SAY: It ticks every box I can think of, and some I hadn’t considered. Now I need to find a spare 60-odd thousand tucked in the lounge and I’m home free.
I AM going to start this yarn with a quick little disclaimer: I’m going to be biased. Not because Lifestyle Campers has lined my pocket; hell they’re probably going to charge me for cleaning out the empty beer cans I left in the fridge. No, instead I’m biased because this is the camper I’d buy right now if I had the money in my pocket, and I don’t, due in no small part to the beer I just mentioned. Ain’t life poetic sometimes?
You see, campers of any description fit a reasonably small part of our life. If you camped every weekend of every month of every year of your life, your camper would still spend more than 70 per cent of the time parked in your driveway. To me, that means a camper needs to make life a lot easier so I can maximise my time kicking back drinking the previously mentioned beer and watching the sunset over the water somewhere far beyond the nonsense the other five days of the week bring. I’m not overly fussed on how many comforts I’m bringing, I just don’t want to have to wrestle a tent and collapsible table just to be away from it all. Camping should be about camping, ya know? Building campfires, cooking up a good feed, exploring the tracks nearby; and to that extent the Lifestyle Campers Reconn R2 Elite knocks off-grid living out of the park.
