17' Series Ordered our 17.56-1 OB

[Pathy + Expanda]

Hi all.
After stalking these forums for an age and after some advice from Stray Dingo (Thx mate), we ordered our Expanda today.
Going to a bit of a wait (Early August delivery) but we got a great deal (All below for $1500 over base model price), so the wait will be worth it.

The options we decided on are:
Awning
Roof Aircon
Lge Fridge
Wind up antenna
Control panel
2 x gas bottle and bayonet fitting
Hot water system
Privacy screens
Extra water tank
External shower and TV point
Electric brakes and wiring.
Rego and predelivery.

We are planning our first trip already.

Congratulations, you will love the expanda when it arrives.

You've got a good selection of accessories at a good price, well done on that one.

You will have the van sooner than you know.

All the best

congrats and welcome to the forum, likewise for us, planned all the mods and read through the forum here, then bought the stuff, got van done a few mods then been using it. admit that things around the house never got done then time catches up on you and before you know it, its time to hook up and go away again. still got mods to do waiting for me but there is this other thing called work that pays for the going away that keeps interferring in our time. got to sort that out some how.welcome again.cheers.

Well, we picked up our 17.56-1 last week and we had our shakedown trip to Byron Bay over the last 4 days.

Getting measured up for our annex next week with add a room, antiflap etc.

Also am using a HR Towbar / WDH on the Pathfinder. It tows great with no significant sag with a ball weight of 205kg.

Smiles all round from the family, off to Mooloolaba next weekend.
