Would be better if there was an option for this on a hino or Isuzu 4.5 as the iveco, sprinter and fiat are total cactus at 100,000km…. That’s if they even make it to then😂
Thanks for the feedback. Although generally Motorhomes don’t do the crazy km of long haul truck etc we have many customers who have travelled over 200k without issue. We also find our customers don’t really want to sit on top of the engine and endure all that goes with that style of truck chassis. Horses for courses I guess. 😉
Really, what’s the point of advertising a new motor home now with such a long waiting time for delivery … every company is the same .. waiting lists of over 14 months, a lot could happen in your life from the time you pay a deposit until you actually get the motor home. No wonder second hand ones are so expensive.. they’re more expensive than a brand new one, but who wants to wait that long ?
Hi Julie. Thanks for your comment. The wait times on all new vehicles is definitely frustrating. We are a smaller high end manufacturer with a current wait time of approx 4 years on this model. Most of our customers are either planning that far ahead or currently have a RV or caravan to use in the meantime. Luckily doing a quick RU-vid video doesn’t cost much for us and keeps people excited who are planning to order or are waiting in the queue. Hopefully this means our builds are worth the wait. 😁 Ben.
What a load of bu- sh- take from someone that has been all over Australia, this over priced paint pony is not suitable for long term travel, get a truck based motorhome.
Thanks for your comment Fred. Not sure if you’ve had the chance to see one of ours in the flesh. It doesn’t take much to see where the extra costs go compared to more cheaply constructed vehicles and we certainly aren’t aiming to be a cost cutting manufacturer. At the design stage we did look into larger trucks however found the IVECO 7.2t version more than capable with regards to horsepower and load capability. For reference this model after all tanks are full has 1.5t of load capacity remaining. Certainly if you need something much larger then there’s no real choice but to go for a larger truck base again. For now we can’t justify the development expense and time for such a model with a waiting list already over 4 years. Hope you continue to enjoy travelling around Australia, maybe you’ll come across a Latitude and you can say g’day to the owners of it. Ben 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Jesus Fred Rose, you sound like a typical “I know it all” wanker yet you give absolutely no reasons to back up your claim. I’ve been touring Australia for the last 40 years but I don’t talk like I know it all. Have you even looked under an Iveco? I have and they’re very well built, full truck chassis, dual pack rear leaf springs, dual rear wheels and rear wheel drive with diff lock and it’s rated at 7.2 ton. How much more truck like do you want.
Fantastic video and information as usual from you 👍🪄🥇How much is the export price ? Tax free . Can you build it on a left hand drive IVECO chassis 🌍? Did you think of a sleeping pullout bunker over the cockpit for an extra adult to sleep ? Any solutions for outside kitchenette for external cooking ? Any ideas how to hide 2 bikes ? As you have no Garage 🤓🤔. Any chance to get it before 2025 ? That a very long waiting time . 🥲
