RV REVIEW
The van includes a fold-down external picnic table , complete with some shelving and a 240V powerpoint , allowing the couple to plug in their second portable induction cooktop when they decide to cook outside . Having said that , they also have an electric barbecue that lives on the nearside slide-out tray within their A-frame storage box . They simply plug it into the 240V powerpoint inside the tunnel boot . No need to connect to a gas bayonet coupling .
When I looked underneath the van , I was impressed by how ordered it all seemed . All vulnerable components were adequately protected , including the water tanks . Now , Max and Kerrie have given themselves 330L of fresh water across three separate tanks , one of which is for drinking water only . Two of these tanks are mounted rear of the axle line , while the third , along with the grey water tank , are positioned forward of the axles .
Again , like the position of the batteries , that was done for weight distribution purposes . According to Max , when Wonder Roo plugged all the weight values into special computer software , the weight distribution of the van turned out perfectly , and he is very pleased with the 236kg ball weight .
