    outback got a reaction from Rumcajs in My new van   
    Actually it just looks big. As far as the towing bit goes the GU handles it very well. The picture was taken in Quorn so I had to tow the van through the Pichi Richi Pass  and had little problem. Just keep the revs steady at 2500 and don't expect to do a 110 km/h dash.
     
    As it is I tend to sit around the 80 km/h mark when towing. 
     
    As for the van basic specs are:
     
    Width = 2.05m (6'9") Length = 4.76m (15' 7.5") Tare = 1700 kg GVM = 2400 kg   I have just replaced the springs and shockers with standard height King springs and Ironman Nitro shockers. This helped to keep the van up. The old springs were a little limp for this.
     
    the van is a full off road spec:
     
    Kitchen Internal Smev 3 Burner & Sink Combo, hot and cold pumped water 12/240V 140ltr. Waeco Compressor Fridge  12 Volt Water Pump 19l 240 Volt microwave oven   Bed 2 x Single Beds   Awning: 11 Foot Rollout Awning Annex: shade cloth style annex   Storage 2 x Front Tunnel Boots  1 x Under Bed Storage access inside van 1 x Under Bed Storage access inside van or via outside door  Overhead Cupboards   Electrical 19inch 12 Volt TV with DVD Player CD/Radio 3 x 240 Volt double Sockets 5x LED Down Lights- Internal  2x Bed Side Lights 1x External LED Strip Light   12v Battery System 3x 12 Volt Outlets – 2 Int/ 1 Ext  2x 100 AH Sealed Batteries  240 Volt Battery Charger  Battery Indicator  Anderson Plug 1000 Watt 12volt to 240 volt pure sine wave inverter   Solar 2x 80 Watt Solar Panels 1 x 120 Watt folding solar panner with anderson plug and battery clips.   Water Tanks 2x90ltr. Under Body  Water Indicator 1 x 90l gray water tank Gas 2 x 9kg & Ring Holders  Plumbed to Kitchen / Hot Water Service   Standard Inclusions Toilet (Porta Potti), Shower & Hand Basin Hot Water Service   Other additions on van Outside Table External BBQ (slides into own compartment)   2 x Jerry Can Holders DO35 Off Road Hitch   Suspension: Cruisemaster Independent / Twin Shock Absorbers   There are a few extras I added to the original.

    Bought this in September 2012. Finally got to use it Easter 2013. 
    Still have a few thing to have added to it yet.
     
    I was looking at one of their camper trailers and made an order for one, plus extra modifications. Saw this and told them to chuck the trailer I will take the van. Small price difference but worth the cost.
