20' Series What Else ?? - 21.63 Outback Expanda

[Melanie and Gavin Cockran]

Yeah, will just have to work it out with Jayco and thanks for the info.

After much deliberation we have decide we love the Isuzu MUX and want hassle free caravanning so think we are going to try and swap to a 17.56 pop up. Smaller but as hubby works Saturday mornings (self employed) we only get weekend getaways in anyway and not planning on to many big trips until late next year. We definitely wanted the Outback and they seem to have better resale value so time for compromise. Still think we will have many happy years in the 17 as we did in our smaller camper.

I think the resale of an outback is relative to the initial purchase price.

My brother just sold his Swan and got a great price for it but the majority of calls wanted an Outback model so I guess I meant more about buyer interest.

You'll love the 17.52 @Melanie and Gavin Cockran ... But then again I'm a little biased
Most trips just the two of us and plenty of room when the daughter and her young bloke tag along!

We were a bit worried that having such a big van, we would eventually not be bothered with popping away at least once a month like we have been and we only travel an hour (Mandurah) away. My mum likes to come with us and we have a special needs 18 year old. Five kids in total (4 married/partnered) and 2 grandkids so plenty of bodies. Bugger it, they can all bring a tent. All we have to do is see what Nick from Caravanland says tomorrow. We have paid a deposit and we haven't drawn up any plans/specs so hopefully it will be OK as the 21 wasn't going to be here until the end of February.
:eagerness:

As long as you two are comfortable that's the main thing
When you see Nick tell him David and Greer say Hi!!!!! And if he gives you a hard time I'll go talk to him LOL

and if Nick is not all that helpful, grab hold of Ken - seems to be the man to see.........

 

[dagree]

Or Jim.... OMG It's a worry when we are all on first name basis with salesmen

Our dealer says ours will come in at approx 2900kg. Not sure if that's the ATM or not, and not sure which is heavier, the ensuite or our cupboards.

An ATM of 2900kg makes your 21xxxx lighter than my 20xxxx, and i dont have the slide out .....

 

[bigcol]

even funnier when your "browsing" the Jayco's at the 4x4 show, and your salesman - Ken, comes up and asks hows the Van and family etc.......

 

[bigcol]

he also wanted to know if & when we were thinking of up dating...............
