dont let peer pressure force you into changing up to an Expanda
keep it as long as you can,
and enjoy it as much as you can
what they DONT tell you when suggesting you up-grade is.......
the beds suck - Swan is more comfortable and larger
not as light to tow - that extra 600Kgs is a lot going up a hill
not as light and airy inside - get used to turning the lights on just to see at lunchtime
takes just as long to setup as your Swan
hehehehehehe
flame suit is on and fits nicely..............
Im almost talking myself back into my old Flamingo...............

It was a very long day will post pics soon
We are very happy it looks awesome & the look on the kids faces when we pick them up , priceless
G'day guys finally remembered my login for photo bucket
We had our first camp in the back yard last nite after setting up, the kids were keen with no stopping them & they all have own set jobs on set up , we were very impressed.
Very roomy for a family of 5 & our pet dog too, I reckon some fun times ahead.

It was a long day yesterday as we had to go back to jayco due to one of the pull out bed support poles being to short by a 100mm making the queen bed sit on an angle
Jayco forgot that we had an under slung axle.
All sorted now

Looks fantastic. We just sold our swan ( am upgrading to the 21-64OB as there are 6 of us). Had some great times in it and it never let us down. Travelled from esperance to kununurra twice in one year in it, along the coast.
I'm sure you'll also have great fun in it. We picked the same fabric for our new one. Looks great.
