Does anyone have an opinion on what is better? Storm covers or just bed flys?
I assume you can't fit both at the same time.

I have both and they are both good. The storm covers are really good, obvious weather protection, darker mornings, better for the aircon and the lack of thermal resistance from the canvas ... but traveling for a long time and short stays the storm cover never comes out. To put that into perspective, the nuisance is limited to taking out the bag, sliding the cover into the track (which is easy) and pushing in the press studs. Then unclipping, unsliding, folding up putting in the bag and putting bag away. Not much of a nuisance really; very much a precious first world issueDoes anyone have an opinion on what is better?

yes you an have them both on / there / attached at the same time
I'd be interested to know the price currently being touted for both. Our storm ones cost about $750 and the privacy screens were included as a freebie so I have no idea of the 'listed' price.
http://www.campsmart.net.au/caravan-awnings/bed-end-flys/expanda-storm-covers has them listed as $440. I find them normally pretty reasonably priced from campsmart.

I'm pretty confident you meant that in the nice wayUnless you're @Crusty181 .....and we all know he's different!
A few people have advised they leave their black privacy screens fitted; is there a trick to folding away the bed ends with these still fitted. I had some difficulty so have ben taking them off each time we fold away the beds.
Van down the "road" from us in the caravan park has Kakadu storm covers on a new lid'ed 17ft Expanda poptop and they are very neat and well fitted
Easy there @bigcol. You know how creepy it looks getting caught trying to take photos of someone elses van, when they have a lot of little kids ... especially the way I dress !!!!
