RV REVIEW
“THE INTERNAL CLUB LOUNGE IS
AN ABSOLUTE WINNER.”
This van does plenty of things well, but one in
particular: cupboard space. The kitchen has five
drawers, one on top of the other, all the way to
the roof – an excellent use of space. Meanwhile,
the entrance is fitted with a suite of nooks and
cupboards, while the bathroom offers a large linen
cupboard above a washing machine.
Additionally, the overhead locker doors are each
fitted with piano hinges – great! – with the lockers
themselves secured to aluminium extrusion at the
top and bottom, making the overhead cabinetry
quite strong.
Overall, I found the interior of the Excalibur very
appealing. The more time I spent with it, the more
I saw my wife and I hitching it up for a Big Lap…
once the kids have flown the nest, of course.
SUMMING UP
With storage space in spades and a payload
capacity to match, the Crusader Excalibur Serenity
seems particularly geared for long-haul trips.
The van tows well, offers loads of fresh water
storage and a reasonable 12V system, and that
internal club lounge is an absolute winner – the
layout is quite thoughtful.
