Our new 18.57-9 have arrived finally at the dealer, been a long wait since ordering in January. For those who were wondering about two gas bayonets, our van has arrived with two as ordered. One at the front and the other behind just behind the mudflaps.

Just waiting for the annex to be finished and the dealer to arrange a delivary date, hopefully next week.

Hi Thanks for the comments. We have noticed that Jayco have improved the build quality over our 2010 17.56-1. The lighting is half and half with down lights, range hood and outdoor all LED, but the main lights, ensuite and fan/light combo still bulbs. Got the annex up in betwwen the rain, it is a kakadu in portsea (dark blue/grey stripe) with black screens for windows and door flys. Privacy screens are also kakadu, they are lot heavier than the Jayco screens. 008.JPG009.JPG010.JPG

Cuey,
No the bunk mattresses are still foam but Jayco have changed the cover material. Kids and wife have tried them out and found them very comfortable, they seem softer than last years models that we looked at.

Awesome TT - If the 18" series would have fit under our carport, then I would have got one! Cost to lift the carport too expensive and could not justify. :smile:
