Welcome “Adventurers”, this site can open a world of excitement and discovery for you.

We, Stewart & Pamela Pinney, like many others, designed our original ‘Camperback' to meet our own needs. We were then convinced by others to fabricate these for the open market and hence launched our original P 190 ‘Camperback' early in 2003 .

The P 190 ‘Camperback' has proven to be the ideal practical companion for a utility vehicle with a flat top trayback. It opens the way for intrepid travellers to go to places others with trailers, caravans and buses can only dream of.

We are constantly reminded of people's desire to prepare for their forthcoming retirement. Using a ute for one of their primary vehicles, if not the only one, can reduce registration, insurance and maintenance costs, which is most attractive. Being able to simply convert your ute into an off-road leisure vehicle with all conveniences is very smart! Then simply revert back to your every day workhorse – what better? Similarly, this can convert your everyday 6' x 8' trailer into a multi purpose unit in the same way. Allowing you to use the trailer for general home/farm duties and simply convert it to a leisure trailer.

Storage of our ‘Camperback' is simple and takes up little space either whilst travelling or for long term breaks at home.

We continually strive to produce the best ‘Camperback' to meet the needs of our fellow travelers. Each product is hand built with extreme care and each delivery is treated as the birth of a new child – one to be proud of and enjoyed. We listen to the comments of our clients and have incorporated many of their ideas to enhance unit functionality. The whole design process is an ongoing evolution that just gets better and better!

We have delivered ‘Camperback' s to most States of Australia and they are happily trekking around, many to the most remote locations. This proves that they have been built to withstand the rugged outback tracks and water crossings and meet all challenges head on with no fuss.

Our customers have chosen different options to suit their own particular needs and we have worked closely with each of them to meet their requirements.

Transition to the Ultra Lightweight ‘Camperback'

Over the last two years we have developed a totally new style of construction in our ultra lightweight ‘Camperback' which uses aerospace technology. The use of composite sandwich technology introduces strength and rigidity with minimum weight, much lighter than most popular comparable trayback units available today.

It is the little things that make a difference, and it is all the unseen items that make our ‘Camperback' the most sought after ‘off road' trayback available. We demand the highest quality products for inclusion in our ‘Camperback' and will not accept anything less. Our 5 year product guarantee is evidence of this (conditions apply).

We at Utility Campers are proud to introduce our new ultra lightweight 'C 190 ' ‘Camperback' design which has allowed us to reduce our range of models.

The 'C 190 ' will replace our popular ‘ P 190 ' and ‘P 210 ' ‘Camperback' .

This ‘Camperback' has upward folding doors supported by gas struts which allows it to fit any flat tray size, 6' ( 1830 mm) wide or more and 6' 10 ” ( 2070 mm) or longer .

The advanced attributes of composite sandwich panels give the new C 190 ‘Camperback' the edge . See our C 190 Facts tab for more detailed information.

Each page of this web site has a collection of ‘Camperback' and landscape images on the right hand side. Once clicked they enlarge, so be sure to have a look to get a feel for what the ‘Camperback' can bring to you.

Our “Gallery” tab is a photo gallery displaying even more of the landscape images and ‘Camperback' situations that we, or our customers, have been privileged to enjoy.

See our “2 nd hand” tab for superseded models available for sale.

Testimonial

1. Extracts from a letter from Maureen Lapsley and Kevin Gargan, Meredith, Victoria
• Maureen calls the ‘Camperback' 'our 5 star camper' as it takes less than 5 minutes to set up and is as comfortable as any 5 star accommodation. The other major advantage is the fact we could go anywhere without the restriction of towing a trailer or caravan and could park anywhere in towns
• We were able to customise the ‘Camperback' to our specs which personalises it to our needs - a great bonus
• We congratulate them on an excellent product in design, engineering and finish as well as ease of operation
• We will continue to recommend your ‘Camperbacks' to any interested parties.
2. Extracts from a letter from Jack Weerts & Marja Bouman, Nilma North, Victoria
• After driving a van for more than 15 years we decided to change over to a 4WD ute.
• After a year of tenting and tieing our stuff on the tray we decided it was time to find something more comfortable without the need to tow and go bush
• The ‘Camperback' from Utility Campers stood out from the beginning.
• The kitchen that can be used both inside and outside,
• The hard floor and the ease of use made it the winner on our shortlist.
• Utility Campers goes a long way to make a customer happy. Stewart and Pamela are very passionate about their product and love to share their travel stories.
• We have been using our camper for over a year now and are very pleased about it.
• It's great to have access to nearly everything while you are travelling.
• We hardly ever spend two nights at the same spot as it just takes a few minutes to get the tent up or down. Only now we realise how much thought has gone into this camper.
3. Stuart Kostera and Meg Carty from Kalamunda, WA
• Meg & Stuart have been travelling the outback with their P190 ‘Camperback' for almost 4 years. They have travelled more than 100,000 kms over some of the most difficult terrain, and he says, “he can’t break it!!“

These are only two of our happy customer stories - not everyone has the time to put the pen to paper, but the verbals are never ending.
