You Aussies do things right! This rig looks better engineered, both for its off-road abilities, and its overall utility than anything offered in the U.S. Of course, if it's ever offered here, I'd cringe at the price. The only critique I have is the selection of lithium ion batteries instead of the safer lithium phosphate ones.

Great looking van, we have a 2022 build 20’9 trooper and we couldn’t be happier with it , definitely take advantage of the the sail track on the side and grab a shade screen for it , the difference it makes the temperature inside the van if your not in a nice shady spot is unbelievable, can’t wait to see the van get put through its paces on your trips , happy and safe travels with the new van.

America has grizzly bears, tornadoes and mountians everywhere and our campers are framed with tiny 1×2 pine boards and still costs the same as a 2 bedroom house. A lot of camp sites have a ban on campers because they can't handle the drive up or down the mountain.

@shanedwyer4881 3 месяца назад

I saw one comment about the wing on the van being there for aero reasons. That may be a benefit to keep rain and dirt off the camera and tear of the van, but I’m not sure about that. Another manufacturer has the same wing on their van to increase the roof area for what ever additions you want on the roof like extra solar. Bloody nice van.

@liamhouse5559 3 месяца назад

Awesome van guys - very envious😊 We had an instant HWS installed on our van and we went with a ‘Showermiser’ which works a treat and saves buckets of water. They only come in chrome but had it sand blasted and powder coated black to match the other plumbing. Keep an eye on the Aussies Traveller door. I’m continually adjusting it to get it to close and lock properly. It has also started to delaminate thru corrosion below the vent. - I’m looking at a warranty claim for this issue. I really like to security and midge proof screen though. We also installed the Redarc system and really like it - keen to see what the new upgrades are in your future vids. Happy vanning and Safe travels

We use Inox PTFE Food Grade Grease 30 g from Repco on the slide arms and gasket where it slides to close. Does not affect the seals. We have found 42 degrees setting on the hot water means you don't have to fiddle with cold water getting the temp right especially for a shower. Nice van well done.

@stephenbarnes2604 2 месяца назад

I could pick this apart, as to what and how to improve on a pretty good unit. One thing I would do is have a tent with a toilet sink and shower outside. No Bathroom inside and the tent simply pulls out of the rear door frame and assembles itself. Big decent looking with a tin roof and part hard fold out maybe. At level with trailer floor or descends to ground level. I'm half claustrophobic, half cluts, and cant spell either. I got some other cool ideas and a little goes a long way if you like.

@rtarrant1 3 месяца назад

Just fyi. It’s a tankless water heater. Not instant. I have had 3 of them and used to sell them as well. Yes it will take a bit for the water to get warm, but once it does you could actually run it until your water or fuel supply runs out.

@BrierlyHutchinson 3 месяца назад

Just a tiny bit of advice with the triple lock on the front door door. Just be careful to make sure you always lock it. I drove with mine didn’t lock it properly and the external door came open while I was going down the freeway at 100 km and put a real nice dent and bent the door a little bit in the side of the van lesson learned😅

@Superman679 2 месяца назад

You should cover the propane flexible pipes and that manifold. especially when going off road. I would be scared of rocks and pebbles hitting them and causing a leak and then the next rock or pebble hitting steel and creating a spark and BOOM ! I would still cover them if the were below the guard but since they are above the guard, there is a greater chance of being hit by rocks or debris and if you're lucky, you'll loose all your propane, if you're not lucky, you might lose your life and those of your family. Other than that, great video and great trailer or as you and the Britts call them, caravans

@mikemarshall4567 2 месяца назад

Looks like a beautiful camper but I don’t think it would make it in North America. The suspension looks very intricate and does not look like you could fix it in an off-road environment i.e. backcountry. Also, I have to agree with the other comment with the drain line for the fridge which would let the water run down the side of the unit. I think the five solar panels on the roof are perfectly mounted, and supply a great amount of power.

@robynsmith2178 3 месяца назад
