image.jpeg image.jpeg And she's home!!

Handover done and dusted. No issues during delivery, everything switches on and works well, though have since discovered a slight water leak underneath the van to be further investigated. Kept "The Toy Shop" in business whilst there, stocking up on sun busters, matting etc. The Cruiser towed it home fabulously, though may push for a suspension raise sooner rather than later.

Overall we are super pumped about how the van looks and with our colour/fabric choices. We elected for the TL pack but ditched the leatherette as we didn't like the colours. The larger wheels also look great and the extended draw bar is just itching for a box!

Can't wait to get stuck in to setting the van up and sneaking away for a weekend!

Let the fun begin!

Awesome! Very happy for you. Ours is packed out the front waiting for a trip to S.A. (From Brisbane). Leaving Thursday.
Can you list all the weights of your van for comparison. Tare. Towball. (And Max towball). ATM....?
Interested what extra weight the fibreglass walls add. (Looks fabulous).

If you don't mind me asking, what did it end up costing ??
Still struggling on deciding on what the next van is going to be & love the idea of a Full van just wasn't sure on the combined Shower/Toilet?

Hi @DLT have a look here for some show pricing. Mine was about $53k two and half years ago with a few extras and customisations. Love the full van and have never looked back.

Our van came in at-
TARE: 2472
BALL: 226
ATM: 3047

No max tow ball weight was specified. We increased our payload to 575kg as we added an extra tank, extra battery and extra solar panel amongst other options.

We went with this model as we wanted to stick to a size around 20ft, plus we extended the drawer bar. Overall it is around 8.5m in travel length. The combined ensuite is great for us as it allowed us to keep to the 20ft and is more for nighttime use (we also had an external shower fitted).

That looks great - Thanks Keze
We would try to use the Toilet as little as possible - so i am not that worried about having a combined now.
Love the idea of a Full height /Fully enclosed van
cheers

How does our van compare in weight to yours @twscoot?
Ours is:
Tare 2200 kg
ATM 2675 kg
Towball 170 kg.
Max towball 300 kg (a useless measure really and was much lower when we purchased and after some discussion was increased to 300 kg - which is about what the van is fully loaded - I have weighed it).
