What about a quadcopter with a webcam so I can watch them miss screwing things into walls 
Be good to just have a tracking website so you can see what it is up to.
With the 17.58 we where told its running late then it turned up

I want to know who supplies the sikaflex so I can monitor the ups and downs of the supply line....reckon it goes up from Wednesday's onwards.
Whenever it arrives, just pray it's finished as well as you would want it...another day or two doesn't matter as long as it's ok.
Ours was and we were very thankful.....and still are.
And I just bought some more sikaflex!

hi all too funny! Like Mckenzie I too work in construction related work. So I know that with anything involving humans, there is no such thing as perfection, either with quality or timeframes, suppliers, materials, or equipment.
Really it is an impressive operation with many people and variables and it is amazing they can pump out so many vans and hold a schedule as they do. I fully expect to cheerfully solve a few defects myself, and to make a few improvements. Part of the fun! In a months time will be sitting in a great holiday location somewhere in our new van!
And as suggested I will get some sikaflex ( the good stuff) but don't get it on your fingers!

Hey. Solving problems and small defects is part of the fun.
Who wants or expects perfection? As long as it's close and redeemable via warranty then that's ok.
We all like to potter.

Hi @McKenzie , yes we do have some plans. We travel for two purposes, one is for junior sport, (golf) and this was the main reason for getting a caravan, and this will be about 15 trips per year. Our first sports trip looks like being Goulbourn, we think Governors hill caravan park.
Then the nest trip, and the other reason for getting a caravan, is purely for relaxation. We are thinking Nambucca heads; seafood, comfy camp chairs, sleeping in, lazy bike riding with kids, and afternoon snooze! Youngest is a keen fossicker and has a metal detector, so we'll make a big thing of that with him. We also have gem and gold fossicking on the list and the outback will be a perfect base off the grid as necessary. Wherever we go this will be a great thing for the family, and one day the kids will look back and appreciate what a great time we all had.
Wow thats awesome!! Looks like van is going to get a workout. And as you say kids will remember and appreciate
We are planning a trip to Adelaide to see grandmother. She hits 95 in feb. So we are taking the opportunity to see GOR at the same time. See current link of trip Q & A.

Still being patient. There were some build issues, yes, but good they are picked up and rectified before delivery. Looking forward to delivery and sharing some photos - you know how it is where the hungrier you get, and the longer you wait, the more you appreciate the food when it is finally served!
Well thanks for the thoughts! Won't be long now - the 22 was awaiting transport on Tuesday so maybe handover will be next week? Best not to hang out for it too much, it will come when it comes
Sounds like you should have it next monday /Tues if thats the case. They told me 23 nov on truck...then the 1st or 2nd Dec for hand over. Which is about a week. Bit further to bundy. Only a few more day!! 22 foot....luxury 
room to throw a ball around

Well I thought I wouldn't post any more until delivery. It seems to make the waiting and delays pass slower! but...... The latest is our van will arrive in Newcastle Wednesday the 4th nov. Hoping a handover won't be too long after that, but so long as we have it before the 24 th for a junior sport trip to Goulburn.
Also I've booked most of December off work and want to be nomadic with family staying nowhere longer than two days.
Hope your delivery goes smoothly

Good to hear @Gilmorehappy looks like a Thursday/ Friday handover?
Very exciting.
I'm down to about a month now to wait

Talk about exciting- today we bought a large year planner for the wall (Office-works) onto which a whole year of travel plans can be hung on the wall, dry erase marker, sticker dots etc etc.
So far there are 38 days of travel listed (at last count)with many more trips yet to be listed. And what's good is there are many more trips yet to be added!
priceless!
