Sold our 2016 Swan Outback after a year - awesome camper trailer but found we are overdoing the set up and pack down thing when moving frequently.
We had an Eagle years ago and absolutely loved it, never saw ourselves with a 'van' back then.
Pickup 16.49-3 OB today, probably would have preferred the 17ft but have a Pajero (2016) and it just wont tow the 17ft OB legally.
Got the Paj as it was a good buy to tow the Swan!!, you live and learn. Really pleased with it but just a shame on the towing weight capability, still, the16.49-3 coupled with the Paj should be a good combination – I’ll know when we pick up.
Been reading this forum for 2 weeks, loads of awesome discussions and info, have more to discuss on solar etc - but will do that after reading the manuals that come tomorrow.
First up will be adding 'portable' solar panels, comes standard with one 120W on the roof (I think), need to figure out if I can just wire additional portables in parallel into the existing regulator or not, from reading so far I think so.
Oh yeah, also need to look at dropping the table and installing a bed converter or similar so we can 'spread' a bit more on rainy days - brand new van and the list has started - that's half the fun though.
