I think they are hand rails for the grey nomads.Rock sliders all round
New model leaked

I see they are still using cable tie to hold the plumbing in, somethings are timeless!
Now theyve decided to fit a toolbox and somewhere for the weber.. youd think they would have listened to their customers over the last few years and looked at the different mods people have made to their vans and added these as standard or atleast to the options list.. i wonder if theyll ever listen to our needs
I like how they upgraded hinges, draw runners, cupboard frames although I see they still have the table attached to the wall that will pull out
Our first one lasted to we got home 20ks on black top

Still doesnt have a bumper bar as good as the one mario @mfexpanda built for the silverlinedavemc said:I like how they upgraded hinges, draw runners, cupboard frames although I see they still have the table attached to the wall that will pull out

I think they should stick to the white and not the cliche 'grey and black' combo.
Pricing is $85k wow there backing themselves? starting to see the influence of the ex car companies execs on Jayco. This is classic MVI several models built on similar floor plans but at premium pricing... Think comodore, Calais , statesmen. By the time you get to a statesmen their making $35-40k more for probably $3-5k cost. Same with this off-roader same don't be rude ply floor same chassis same cabinets but with $10 more in alloy brackets rather than the plastic ones all round costs them $5k more and punters pay $30k more
After having a good look in, under and through this today I don't think anything is the same as the current line of vans, very nicely made and some good design features, after comaring it to a lot of the other brands similare vans I would say it's priced about where it should be.

your starting to sound cynical like me there @achjimmy
we will have to wait, over here in Wait Awhile, until the next show, to have a look, feel, see, touch (not inappropriately @Drover )

This is very interesting as we are sourcing our expanda upgrade and the specs we want are remarkably similar.
It ticks most of the boxes, apart from the price!
We think we've come pretty close but still a bit more checking to do.
Our spec requirement:
It will be interesting to see the reviews

We think we've come pretty close but still a bit more checking to do.
Our spec requirement:
- Robust without being over the top and thus too heavy
- Not a palace but comfortable
- Single axle preferred with poptop but open to change if we can justify it
- Comfortable beds
- Separate shower and toilet
- Outdoor kitchen if possible
- Weber box with slide for weber so we don't have to set it up before a drink is required
- The usual picnic table, ESC etc etc
- Good sized fridge

Yeah maybe but after three Jayco's I guess Iam wise or wary. I can tell you those stone guards on the water tanks will get damaged and the ply floor also from bouncing rocks. The ply also loses a bit of its veneer after a blast from a gerni to clean the dust away. And as @Bushman said cable tying the flexiable hose up? And those wheels they are the same as we have now, the paint chips off very easily from rocks but not on the painted csa rims on the cruiser whys that Jayco??? But I guess through here marketing and dealer network people will pay same for a jayco as they could of a well known manufacturer of off-road vans ?
For the pricing it would want to be a darn site better quality than Jayco normally serves up. I have been willing to accept a few quality issues in the past, based on Jaycos pricing, at post $80k, I doubt I'd buy a Jayco
Lets hope that with this being a "one off" prototype the build quality improves during builds and the price is adjusted to suit!
If not, hopefully their warranty services stay as they are
