I would like to apologise to you all for the time it has taken me to design, test, develop and continually strive to improve my Roller Drawer System, 327 different models to date, to suit 4WDs, Soft Roaders, Utes, Vans etc, while other people seem to be able to do similar things overnight. Dumb!

The original design and testing period back in 1988 took me over 18 months, so how dumb am I! My first prototypes included trying and testing a number of different bearing runners commercially available, none of which were any good off road. It took another six months to design and build my own Bearing Runner System and another six months pounding it over some of the toughest terrain Australia has to offer (wish I was an overnight wonder back in those days). It then took me another three years to design, test and develop the Fridge Roller System and our Roller Drawer and Fridge Roller Anti Rattle Stop/Guides to prevent any vertical or lateral movement, squeaks, rattles or wear whilst travelling rough roads, five years all told, dumb, dumb, dumb! "Oh well that's what you get for leaving school early in life." All of this combined to manufacture a product that won the 1993 4x4 Australia Magazine Best Aftermarket Product Award.

I apologise for thinking of your safety back in 1991, too. For putting in 'acres' of effort and design work, along with Milford Industries, to bring you a certified half-height cargo barrier. This of course gives you protection from unrestrained cargo (VB Tinnies, Baked Beans etc.) whilst allowing you optimum length drawers right to the back seat.

I would also like to apologise to prospective buyers for the extra work they have to do to evaluate the many different storage systems that are now available, some systems appearing so similar to my original design that you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference. I have been led to believe that there is one company bringing them into Australia from Taiwan 'by the container load'. Do you think an Aussie Battler, like myself, 'the kid from down the road, born on the wrong side of the street' would feel bitter? Hell no. It's one of the greatest compliments I've had in over 20 years of hard work and travelling over a million 'thirsty' kilometres around Australia exhibiting and promoting my products. Geez, I've started a bloody industry in the recreational 4WD market that could be bigger than camper trailers and fridges.

Yep, I apologise to you all, for the confusion over choice, but you'll have peace of mind if you purchase one of our Outback Roller Drawer Systems, backed by our three year, world wide guarantee and more than 20 years of hands on experience!

Finally, I apologise for any confusion you may also have over our advertisements. I have noticed a surprising similarity here too. Geez, seems I'm not only a good engineering ideas man, I'm a bloody advertising genius too! I think I'm gonna walk on some water soon.

Anyway, enough apologising. See ya 'round Oz with your Outback Roller Drawer System.
