RV REVIEW
Underneath, you’ ll find two 100L fresh water tanks as well as a 70L grey water tank. If I had one complaint, it would be that the grey water tank’ s PVC outlet is unprotected, but that could be a DIY job – a pool noodle would do the trick.
The body of the van contains two‘ aerofoils’, one at the front and one at the rear. The idea, of course, is to improve the van’ s aerodynamic efficiency and, in doing so, improve the way it handles under tow. I’ m told that Harvok has conducted testing in regards to the efficacy of these aerofoils, too. In any event, I can only report on my experience towing it at highway speeds, and it really did pass with flying colours. While the van has a Tare weight of 2483kg, if you wanted to make full use of its payload capacity( ATM: 3500kg), you’ d want a more muscular tow vehicle than my firstgen MU-X. That said, my car was fine for the job at hand, and hauled the Dream Cruise along brilliantly.
Externally, I didn’ t feel as though the van was missing anything crucial. There’ s a protected tap on the A-frame, a tunnel boot towards the front, a roll-out awning with anti-insect LED lights, a picnic table, and an entertainment locker with the relevant fittings to allow you to watch the footy outside.
