Sat on 95-100 except on the Bruce Highway where I decided sitting with the traffic was better than going slower so sat on 100 or what ever the speed limit was, 110 in some areas. FE went up a bit but felt safer on the road.@Marv_mart

They are some pretty impressive figures, hope i can get down to those sort of ones. What speed did you mainly sit on? I sat on 95 on the speedo which according to the gps was 90. Also do you tow in the sports mode? Ive been told by a auto tranny guru to tow in that and never go into over drive. I did a little test when on the move and slipped it into sixth to see if the economy changed, it stayed pretty much the same. So I will stick to his advice.
The worst part about coming home from a Caravan trip is the long wait til the next one :frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty:
Ford is bringing out the Everest this year based on the Ranger, so the option will be there soon.If only they brought out a 7 seater in it........
Hi Kate, with the bunks, I just use a bottom fitted sheet and a Doona. I fold the sides of the Doona underneath itself to make it neater, I hope this makes sense
Hey @Willow4, the bunk beds are narrower than a standard single bed, but I just tuck the fitted sheets underneath, no probs. you can also buy straps that clip underneath the mattress and attach a clip to each side of the sheet which will keep them nice and taut.Great tip. I just wondered if I could ask, we are awaiting delivery of our Startcraft Outback in October and my thoughts are turning to bedding etc. Does a single sheet fit perfectly or is there an overhang, I am trying to picture whether the bunk beds are the same width as a regular single bed. Thanks.
That sounds like a great idea. Sarah must be talented on the sewing machine. I do have a sewing machine however I don't think I could produce fitted sheets but maybe I could try.@Willow4 Sarah made some sheets herself for the 17. We need to make a third for the 22
