RV FEATURE
Our review van was also fitted with an optional 6in extended A-frame , which tapers to 4in before the suspension mounts . The van , however , is built upon 6in main chassis members . The extended A- frame creates room for Goldstream to fit the optional gull-wing storage compartment – a brilliant storage solution , in my opinion .
But here ’ s something that really appealed to me : not only are the two 95L fresh water tanks ( one fore and one aft of the wheels ) and the rear grey water tank protected by checkerplate , the tank dump valves and all other associated plumbing are as well .
Having owned a Goldstream in the past , it ’ s possible that I ’ m biased but I thought the fitout of this poptop was all quality . I wouldn ’ t hesitate to tow this van anywhere my 4WD could reasonably go . It is truly equipped for remote-area travel . Solid , dependable and nicely finished . I liked it – a lot .
