Ordering 18.57-6 OB with extras

[Cuey]

Well, after ringing around looks like the order will be going into Caravan company in SA for our Jayco, the cost over here in perth for the same model and extras is criminal.

So will pick it up or get it trucked back and have a brand new model!! Ya, no more camping under canvas....

what we are getting is the following;


-triple bunk
-outside shower
-dvd tv and mount
-inner spring mattress
-outside table
-gas point at out side front for BBQ
-bed converter to table
-wind up antenna-
- van cover

I take it that the roof mounted A/C and awning is a standard fit??? as well as the RV controller??

cheers Cuey..

Pretty sure that aircons in the full vans are standard.

Not sure about the awning though?

Have you considered another gas bayonet at the rear? Extra cost is $90 at the factory and helps when it is windy. Something to think about.

Nice lot of extras. I too thought awning was extra. Did you know there are two versions of AC on roof? One is more powerful than the other.

Welcome Cuey. Pick up in Adelaide and a nice trip back across the Nullarbor sounds like a plan to me.

The final order has gone in with conformation, through Johnny at Australian caravan company in SA.

We added extra to the list above:

Wiring for solar
Anderson plug
stereo and internal/ external speakers
oven
Ibis A/C

privicy screen
Extra external light over front gas point and outside shower
gas point at rear...

Wont be getting it untill august due to my work,

Cheers Cuey...

Have you picked it up yet? Where does the outside table go if you have triple bunks? I have one on order to pick up in Oct. Couldn't fit the outside table because triple bunk windows are in the way.

Cheers

 

[Cuey]

We didnt get the fold down table as you said, wont fit.
They said they would take off the $200 bucks for not fitting but when I worked out that thay forgot to charge us for the symplicity suspension $2500. I didnt ask any questions!!!!

Dont tell anyone!!!

View attachment 8890Fitted the Holiday canvas company Extra cover over the expanda area....Love it

The canvas looks brilliant, but do you mind me asking what was the driving force to get it. We pick up our 1857-6 OB in October and am wondering whether to get the same option? Is it mainly to help water proof the end, privacy, cold, or other?
Thanks

 

[Cuey]

Warmth and weather protection, saves the main canvas from getting wet...

cheers

 

[Holden_man]

Thanks cuey, will look into it, not sure who does em around here but I am sure Jayco can put me onto someone. How did you find the bed, some members not so happy.

 

[Cuey]

Well,

We started off camping, then into a camper trailer...So I think its great, no worries with me or my wife.

Also after 20 years in the Military laying on the ground, I think its """""" 5 Star """""..(IMO)

Cheers
