Just found this forum. We currently own a Jayco 15.48 Discovery. Purchased new in Sept 2010. Our last trip up thru Bourke NSW and across to the coast we encountered night temperatures of 0 to 4 degrees. The one thing that I noticed was the air vent over the bed let in cold drafts. Otherwise the van handled the cold well as we used a small electric heater at night.
SWMBO feels the cold and likes the idea of a full caravan with ensuite. She has her eye on the StarCraft 16.51. I like the pop top for towing (less wind resistance and better fuel consumption). I am still considering the StarCraft 16.67 or a bigger Discovery.
Question: Why do so many of you like pop tops??? I realise young families go for the Expanda for its volume and kid capacity. But why are couples without kids going for pop tops vs a full caravan.
I will probably do a trade in next month but have not yet really decided on the full van or a bigger pop top.
I would appreciate any thoughts on this subject.
