Just had a call from caravanland, the new van has arrived!
Super excited as this will be our first van.
Prado is all set with a new tow bar and redarc tow pro.

Handover scheduled for friday next week!
Think it may be time to set a countdown timer on the tablet.

Shakedown planned to the inlaws farm in brookton for the long weekend.
Will post a pic when I get one.

Regards
Will

very exciting times @willobee looks like you are all set to go, have a look at the checklist I made for mine here might be helpful, plus I am sure you will have your own items

Make sure there are lots of pics

You going in for a sneak peek before the Friday?

 

[willobee]

Thanks guys, might try and have a sneaky look but going to be away with work for a few days in between.
Will work through the checklist, thanks @burnsie
Im pretty lucky with the inlaws but it will be nice to have a van instead of the tent of the last 10+ years.

Well today was the day!
Handover went well and with a fist full of keys and a bunch of paperwork we were on our way.
Very excited wife and kids too.
Prado towed well and think it will do the job nicely.
Boston dark floor looks awesome, will take some pics tomorrow
