A cafe-style dinette is fitted to the mid-offside – it ’ s very comfortable . Drawers provide access to the under-seat storage spaces , which I liked . You ’ ll also find yet more USB charging points nearby , allowing you to charge your devices while you peruse in comfort .
Opposite the dinette is the kitchen , complete with a four-burner cooktop , griller and oven . Bench space is tight , though .
Having said that , food storage space is very impressive . Between the rear bathroom and the kitchen , JB Caravans has given the Dirt Roader a huge pantry comprised of three separate slide-out shelves .
In the nearside corner cupboard at the foot of the bed is a BMPRO BatteryPlus 35 battery management system and OdysseyLink . This is a very clever system . Essentially , the OdysseyLink allows users – with the addition of separate ‘ SmartConnect ’ sensors – to monitor things like tyre pressures , the temperature in the fridge , water and gas levels , with this information displayed on a smartphone app or on the 7in screen mounted in the entrance .
