It doesn't sound like there was much wrong with the design or the fitting out. Clearly the TV positioning hasn't be thought through, but at least you can fix it. I imagine they are concerned about having weight up high, but the solution to the is to have the TV on an arm to allow for normal use and for travelling. I agree, they should include the wooden platform in the shower/toilet by default. Sounds like a great camper since all these items you bought up a relatively trivial in the scheme of things.
watched both your vids, good honest reviews, we ve a jayco outback pop at this stage, looking at moving up.wife plus 2 girls,10/12,reckon go alright in this size, thanks again 👍
A general comment about hybrids - they make them too tall! Isn't the idea to reduce drag while towing by having the roof come down? The best way to do that is to have it come down so its at or below the height of the standard 4x4 that will be towing it. The six inches or so above the roof line kills a lot of the efficiency gains of having a pop top.
That was a good fair dinkum review, thanks cobbs
Absolutely welcome. True blue as can be.
