17' Series MY NEW VAN

[MBC004]

Hi ALL,

I have been lurking in the shadows for a couple of weeks now and thought it best to introduce myself

I have 4 children and of course the "fun police " officer, and because of this the time has come to upgrade from our GIC camper to a 2014 1726.2OB

the standard inclusions for the 2014 OB are awesome, so I have only added the below item

A-FRAME increase
fusion 800 pack with external speakers
external shower
extra gas bottle
extra bayonet fitting to rear
shelves to robes
tv antenna -wind up
extra water tank
light over shower
drifta panel

please feel free to offer any suggestions on anything I may have missed

thanks

Welcome @MBC004 . The 17-56-2 has 2 gas bottles and water tank as standard , drop down picnic table is very handy and extra power and 12v outlets.
Great van there enjoy!

Welcome, I take it that's your order for a new van, your correct the standard inclusion list is great as is that model van you have chosen.
My only concern to your order is I'm sure the the second gas bottle & second water tanks are standard on that model, so I hope the Jayco dealer isn't charging you extra for them

Gday and welcome to the forum. 1726-2? Do you mean the 17.56-2? If so, then being a family of 6 ourselves, you'll all enjoy it. Pace.

yep sorry guys the correct model is 1756.1OB, I wanted the 2 but my wife and kids and not want the shower/ toilet in the van

Why not?

That explains the extra gas bottle and water tank then.

Well shower or not you certainly chose the right model (IMO) now go and vote someone smarter than me will post the link

Agree with @DRW .... Only 11 sleeps before we pick ours up. Not excited MUCH!!!

You'll have to find someone with a 17 to post the link for the size poll because as a 16 owner it wouldn't be fair to my fellow 16'ers to help out the enemy :baby:
Haha Welcome to forum @MBC004

 

[MBC004]

thanks guys,

the shower/toilet was wanted due the fact it was beside the kitchen area, plus as we came from soft floor camping I already have the aqua cube gas hot water shower and portable toilet so I can have them on the out side.

the Brisbane Jayco delaer has told me I should see it by the end of May, this is going to be the longest 4 months.....

Welcome @MBC004, sounds great....agree with the outside drop down table...very handy and works well with the telly for the footy!

 

[MBC004]

OH and as been said before.... It isn't true without pics
