Hi there from a newbie.

[billykidd]

Greetings,

We have a 2009 16 49-1 outback we have had since new, that takes us and our two kids, 6 and 9 around. Standard van with the 150l fridge and Kakadu walls for the annex on longer stays. Is perfect while the kids will sleep next to each other, before one ends up in a swag outside ! We started out with a Jayco Hawk and then graduated after a couple of years setting it up. So have been with Jayco for a while now.
Van is mostly used on holidays at the Coast, and some short bush trips like Easter, but we are considering a longer NT trip, so I thought this would be a good site to watch for some upgrades to the van.

Billykidd,

:welcome:

Welcome to the forum. You will find a heap of information about preparing for that NT trip, and with your experience with different Jayco models, I am sure you will be able to provide other with valuable info too.

Cheers,

Rohan

Welcome BillyKid,
Gotta love the 16.49-1. You've found the right place for mod inspiration!
Where abouts are you from?

Welcome to the forum, Billykid. I'm sure you will find lots of info here on upgrades. Tell us a bit about yourself and tow vehicle and we do love photos.

Welcome Billykid. This is a great site for ideas and mods. I have learnt so much from reading this forum.
Looking forward to hearing some stories of your travels.

Cheers,

Welcome Billykid. This is the only caravan site you (and Mrs Billykid) need IMHO. Look forward to your contributions.

Welcome to the forum billykidd, we're waiting to get our new panda 18-57.6, look forward to seeing some pics.

Thanks all. Home is Brisbane, and we are second generation of vanners, although neither the wife or I grew up with anything as flash as an Expanda !
Our tow vehicle is an 05 Pajero. I'll get some pics up later.
