WINNER “2009″ OFF ROAD Camper trailer of the year
The Exodus Kingston has just taken out 2009 “off road” camper trailer of the year award (best crossover camper). These prestigous industry awards were conducted by Camper Trailer Australia magazine. A panel of five judges assessed each camper over a period of days and terrain to rate the best.
Campers were categorised into four sections, soft floor, hard floor, trayback and crossover. As well as taking out best crossover camper, Exodus Campers were runner up in the overall point score. Complete Campsite “Uluru Extreme” (soft floor) www.completecampsite.com.au took out overall points with the Exodus Kingston only one point behind.
Full details of “Off Road” Camper of the year 2009 is in the current issue of Campertrailer Australia on sale in newsagent from 28th Ocrober 2009.

Off Road Camper Trailer testing
During the past week, we have been undergoing serious off road camper trailer testing.
These trials were an organised industry session involving Exodus campers along with a number of other manufacturers.
We had on hand 5 well known camper trailer identities to assess the capabilities of each manufacturer. A team of photographers and a TV crew also covered the event.
All testing was conducted at the Werribee 4×4 off road proving grounds in Victoria. The experience and feed back gained from these testing sessions will no doubt be used to further fine tune our off road camper trailer capabilities.
Video footage and photos will be available towards the end of October. If you would like to receive more information on these trials & our range of camper trailers, please contact us via our contact page and we will include you on the mail out list.
New Camper Trailer owners
I would like to welcome two new camper trailer owners to Exodus campers.
Rob & Kerry with their Exodus Kingston
Last week Rob & Kerry took delivery of their new Exodus Kingston. We met up at the Queanbeyan show in 2008 and have had many discussions since. Working with Rob & Kerry has been an enjoyable experience, taking theExodus camper to a new level of interior design.
Hopefully Rob & Kerry will share some pictures with us when they return from their planned three month trip around Australia.
Kevin & Mary with their Exodus Barrington
This week, Kevin & Mary hooked up their new Exodus Barrington. Kevin and Mary had been interested in the Exodus Campers for some time, meeting up with us at several shows.
Having seen some pictures of Kevin & Mary’s past trips, I look forward to viewing some future photos of their new Barrington in action.
Congratualations to both couples and welcome to the exodus crew.
Camper Trailer D’n'A
Keep watching for updates on the D’n'A camper trailer project.
I was fortunate enough to meet up with a couple at the 2009 Rosehill camping show with very specific camper trailer needs.
Extensive research in the camper industry had failed to satisfy their requirements. After a few emails and several visits to the factory we all agreed to embark on the journey of building an extensively customised Exodus ‘Barrington’.
The owners are very keen to document the build of their camper along with their future travels. Their story will hopefully bring you a little closer to experiencing the nuts and bolts of working closely with us at Exodus Campers.
NSW Caravan and Camping Industry recognition
Exodus Campers has recently received industry recognition with a finalist position in the NSW Caravan and Camping Industry annual awards.
This achievement confirms that Exodus Campers is at the leading edge of Australian campers. Our products were also recognised at the 2008 Hunter Manufacturing excellence awards.
On a local level this positioned us ahead of all other Newcastle camper trailers.
