Our Kea Endeavour.

My wife Heather, our Lab Missy (12 months old) and our 2007 Kea Endeavour near Goondiwindi June 2012. It's a great way to travel, pull up and can be set up in minutes, the reverse, when time to leave, just a matter of stowing breakables etc and can be on the road within 10 mins. -- Edited by Santa on Wednesd...

Hyundai iLoad
(Preview)
I'm looking to buy a van to go solo in the near future and was considering a Toyota HiAce LWB High Roof but the Hyundai iLoad caught my eye. Well priced and a reviewer said it may be popular with Grey Nomads. Anyone here have one or met a fellow traveller with one? Opinions? TIA - Bob
