New Camper Project...

Here is my first post on this forum....

After being a FG 434 owner for the past 4 years, I have just taken the plunge and bought another (ex-tour-bus) to seriously deck out....

I'll pick it up tomorrow and so the fun will begin....

Will try to get some pics up asap...

Cool. What year is it? What's the market for used FG's like down under. In the US they keep their value pretty well, hard to find used ones for under about $15k.

Beautiful! Keep us posted!

How many fg's do you guys have down under? Also if you dont mind me asking how much was it?

And almost forgot... Welcome!

Hmmm. Why does that look familiar???

Welcome to ExPo.

How many fg's do you guys have down under?

FGs and NPS > ALOT.

I think NSW Rural Fire service alone had 600 FGs at one point. That's the figure I heard anyway. Hopefully someone knows the total figure.

As for 2wd FEs, NPRs, Toyota Dynas, Nissan Cabstars. They are like ants.

Sweet If I ever take a trip to australia I am going to see all the different cabovers you got their. Their is something that I just love about cabovers. Anyway do you guys have many hino 4x4s like this one

They look so heavy duty and well built!

Yep, but Isuzu make up about 40% of the market, Fuso about 20% and Hino is about 10% so the Isuzu 4x4 550s and 750s are far more common in that size. I saw a Hino 4x4 Tour bus in victoria the other day a couple of months back . Very nice and there is a new one running over to Moreton Island I think.

Every Hino I've ever driven has had power in abundance. Definitely their strong point. The 5oo 4x4's are a very nice trucks allround.
