Dont get me started on weight take yours over a weighbridge and see if it matches the plate my moneys on it dosntThanks all. I guess the reality is that i bought a Jayco as i wanted something light weight as I live on the east coast and towing over and along the GDR is par for the course. we also hit the beach so lightweight is ideal. I considered something like a Bushtracker in great detail but opted for the Jayco for weight and the fact i did not expect to take it too far from home.
Of course, now that the family has been introduced and love it, we are looking to spread our wings more and are coming up on the limits of what the Jayco was designed to do and was purchased for.
Given i don't really have the time to reinforce the van, we might limit the van driving to the blacktop and just use the vehicle to access more remote places. We can always stay in pubs etc o'night if we want to get some range away for the van...
They tow very well and dont be shy drag it anywhere you think is safe dirt or not i think mines very robust and so far has taken all i have draged it through very well for that i give it 5 stars out of 5
