Hello all

My family has just brought our first van. We have spent the last 12 months or more camping with a camper trailer which has been great. We have been enjoying taking my mother in-law with us as well and since we are planning a month long trip in September decided a van would be easier.

Ok so we have brought a Jayco Exanda 16.49.2 this layout suites us the best with two kids and the Mother in-law to fit in. We should take delivery in about two weeks. It has a full annex and walls, which was handy as well as a hot water tap fitted.

Our tow vehicle is a Np Pajero

I hope to see some of you out on the road.

We are SA based.

Welcome Borstalboy, another one steps up from the camper trailer. Good luck with the new purchase, you will find lots of friendly people here with advice on almost any problem you may encounter. Don't forget to post up some photos when the rig arrives. :dance:

Hi ElectricGuru our expanda is a 2008 modal which has the dining table set up like a cafe booth.

Cheers mate.

Ours is the one with the seats on either side of the van. Took us a couple of trips to really sort out the seating/sleeping arrangement with the 4 kids.

Sounds very good mate, plenty of years worth of fun to come...
