I'm pretty new to this website but I'm loving the information and reading peoples posts :) As some of you have read we sold our 2013 starcraft 22.68-1 last week. We have just put a deposit on a 2014 20.63-1 Expanda. Some pics below that dealer sent me although we did inspect it yesterday. Fingers crossed re finance we should hopefully be able to pick it up next weekend. Added extras antenna, fusion stereo, outdoor speakers, 184lt fridge, 3kg washing machine, picnic table, extra water tank, ESC and waterproof screen for bed end.

Oh and an extra 120w solar panel. Dealer did a good deal (well we think it is haha) took $4650 off the price. What do people strap on the mesh part between the gas bottles? BBQ?

@17triton There were a few things we didn't like about it, really noisy air con and didn't seem to work properly (was the thought to buy something else n change it over), dinette was way too small for the 4 of us to sit at, disliked the triple bunk set up not enough room for the two kids, wasn't overly keen on the aluminium cladding on the outside easily dents and was hard to clean properly.. I did want to down size was looking at a 17ft but hubby wasn't keen on pop top or combo shower toilet..

Thanks everyone it should be a great van. Looked at all the things we didn't like on the starcraft (which was our first ever caravan) and made sure we got it right with this one. Can't wait to pick it up hopefully everyone gets their finger out this week so we can ;)

Lol after two expandas we looked at everything we didn't like on expandas and hopefully get it right in the Starcraft! Truth is you will never be totally satisfied and the longer you have a van the longer you find some issues here or there. But that's pretty much with everything? ............ Maybe with the exception of a landcruiser :p
