Flat Out Blog — Flat Out Journey

Hi everyone! Welcome again to Flat Out Monthly, thank you for all your feedback from recent editions of this or YouTube/Facebook/Instagram. We love hearing from you and sharing our journey with you. I have been doing Caravan expos for 8 years now, early days we would often have customers pop over just to tell us how much they love our products, and many say they've had them for multiple years "Still going strong don't need a new one yet!", it's the best! But lately we have just as many people pop over to talk about recent videos we've published, and...

It's been a busy few weeks at Flat Out. We've survived our first National Conference, spent time with customers at shows around the country, filmed more educational content, and taken a moment to reflect on where things stand six months after the Zone RV collapse.

Through his time at ARB, he worked closely with customers to equip their vehicles for the road ahead. Over time, that passion turned into something more personal: he wanted to create...

While many of our Flat Out products are made right here in Australia, not all of them are. We’ve made some changes over the last couple of years that have caused a bit of confusion, and it has never been our intention to mislead anyone. We're sharing this now so people can understand the "why" behind our decisions. We know many companies move production overseas just to increase profit margins, often resulting in a drop in quality. That is not who we are. If our goal was simply to make more money, we would have handled this very differently.  ...
