20' Series Well we have decided to upgrade to a 20.63-1 OB

[Flossymk1]

After much deliberating we have decided to sell our 17.56-2 that we purchased earlier this year, and upgrade to a 20.63-1. Sounds a bit crazy I know, but having done a few short trips in the 17 (our first ever van), we have realised that the 20.63 would suit us a lot better!

So if anyone is interested in buying a 2013 17.56-2 that is practically brand new, I have posted an ad in the 'for sale' section - van is located in Townsville North QLD

So now we have to wait until October for the new van - exciting times ahead!

Just had a look at them online aswell....... HMMMMMMM so tempting but as there are only 2 of us most of the time the 17'er will do us for a while (Maybe when the grandkids get a bit older I may be able to convince the "Boss" )

 

[Flossymk1]

With your gas bayonets, if you are getting one at the rear, check that they put it on the outside of the chassis.

They mounted ours on the inside, so I need to crawl down under the van on my back to find it and plug it in.

I'm asking them to relocate it at the first service.

I might be guessing, but I think there might be a new reg for that. Most of the new ones ive seen are tucked away behind the chassis rail

Won't be long before the Williams family and the @Flossymk1 family can go camping together with our matching 20.63.1 and Navaras lol

Lol now that would be a funny pic @Ren77 !

I asked the Jayco dealer about the 2nd gas bayonet location, and got the same answer.. Guess I will have to wait and see where it actually ends up when we get the van!

I reckon you're right @relgate because mine is under the van too on my 20.63, but the three other's I had were all on the chassis rail.

 

[Flossymk1]

The most frustrating part about ordering a new van is the waiting!! I'm back to browsing the net for pics and drooling over the brochure ugh! (just went through this a few months ago with the 17 lol)
