[@rodneyjones6584]

New van are you getting a update on the vehicle.🦈

[@biglap.australia]

Can I ask how long the wait was for the new caravan? Gee whiz! I wish our dealer looked after us like these guys are looking after you! We just got a “handover the cash 2 days before pickup and don’t call us call the manufacturer”

[@elnick.adventures]

Oh really sorry you have had a bad experience !! I’m not sure the lead time they are running at the moment. 🤠 I know they are busy though

[@mickburns5546]

Congratulations. Looks like it was worth the wait 😊

Hey ray how exciting!!! We have been towing the new van for a few weeks now and we don’t break any speed reckless but the d max is handling it well!! We are getting it weighed bud should be out in a few weeks. Thanks for watching👏😂👍

[@hugonolan8749]

Congrats and Happy New Year to you all happy family, new tandem van, worth waiting for - Elenya you won't know what to do with all the extra space. Good to see you all looking happy and healthy. Enjoy filling it up, and I can't wait for the run through, and the technical items (solar, inverter, weights etc), that you guys have chosen. Enjoy the luxury, well done, and congrats to Maxi for the honour of towing the new van.🤗🤗🤗🤗👶Hugs🤠

[@elnick.adventures]

Hey Hugo. Happy new year to you guys to! It defiantly was worth the wait! It certainly is bigger thanks for all your support and the rundown is next week episode 👍🤠👏

[@elnick.adventures]

Yay!! That’s so exciting! Hope you got something from the video to make your experience alot smoother (:

[@Spad562]

Great video of the handover, we are eagerly awaiting delivery of our new van in March, but in reverse we live on the GC but picking ours up from Newcastle. Just curious I noticed your van was already registered with NSW plates, what was the process involved as when we pick ours up we will have to go to Qld transport and have it all measured up and travel from Newcastle with an interim rego papers

[@elnick.adventures]

Thanks guys! Exciting times ahead for you guys! Sounds like a similar process in regards to rego we had to do it with the rms in nsw. 👍🤙

[@limpn]

Reason for selling the MDC was cause of the new edition to the family ? Thinking of buying a xt16 hr family

[@elnick.adventures]

Hi Matt yep that was the main reason. Needed an extra bunk!! Thanks for watching. 👍

[@philhurn1114]

Great looking caravan.. look forward to the inside and your solar etc. Also with a bigger van how the weights go.. enjoy watching your Friday night episodes here in Tauranga nz

[@elnick.adventures]

Wohoo! Yes we get the van weighed next week so we will be sharing with you all (: can’t wait to share the inside of the van in next weeks episode 👏🤠 thanks Phil!

[@rich9903]

With this van being much bigger and heavier than your previous 16ft MDC, I’m keen to know how it tows in comparison - especially offroad. Understand that its still very early days but how much do you feel the difference between the two? I tow a 15ft hybrid offroad behind my 2022 Prado (with 3.5T GVM upgrade) and so far, I feel that it struggles a bit at times (yet to take it offroad) but that said, I’m new to the caravanning scene so maybe it’s just normal. I’d love to get a proper tune done but vehicle warranty is stopping me at this time.

[@seanyowies8532]

Did you get a new van, with every new baby?

[@elnick.adventures]

It feels like that yes hahaha but didn’t get a new one with Finley as the van had two bunks already (: but Defo needed to upgrade to the 3 bunks now ollie is here

[@colinphelps7284]

The tyre pressure did he say 54 off road it 45 on road?

[@elnick.adventures]

Hey Colin for offroad caravans 54psi as they are a higher load rated tyre and for on road caravans 45 psi hope that makes a bit more sense. Thanks for watching🤠👍
