Hi All,

 

Im new here and I come from the central Coast NSW.

 

I have an older van but i have decked it out nicely and it suits us for now.

I would grab a bigger one if I could but I can only tow 2100 with the commodore!

 

We dont normally go more then a few hours from home due to work and kids but I still love getting away when we can!

Hi Drew,

Nice setup, the older vans come up really well and you can have just as much enjoyment as the flashest rig.

I suspect the modern vans wont be giving enjoyment for as long as the older ones. They were made stronger in "the olden days"!
