Seems like we have made the progression like a lot of others. We went from a soft floor to the jayco dove and love it, however we find the constant dance every morning to reshuffle the bed setup and suitcases a bit much with the amount of time that we use the van and decided to look at the options whilst on holidays at Christmas. A second hand 17-56.2 came up with everything added in the for sale section of this forum and we ended up setting up to meet them in a couple of days once we got back from holidays. Got a call the night before to say it had sold.
Well that planted the seed and set about the list of what we wanted and the best time to buy - Melbourne caravan show. Had the list of options with the dealer and told them to call with the show special and best price on all our selected options. Very happy indeed with the result and we commited over the phone with the offer.
Made our decisions based on extensive reading on this forum, so thanks to all the help spending my money.
