The New Guy
« on: May 05, 2013, 10:25:07 AM »
Hi all,

Just like to say G'day as the latest member of the forum.
We have just ordered a 2013 Jayco Swan with a few little extras which will be ready late July sometime.
This forum has already given me some great ideas and look forward reading more stories (Good or Bad).
We are pumped about our Swan and look forward to hitting the track with the wife and the 2 grommets.

Hope to see you all out there somewhere.

Welcome Baggs.

Another Swan on the giant Jayco pond.  Happy camping and we're looking forward to seeing the pics when the new baby arrives.

Plenty of great camp spots in the SW once you get to Vasse.

No SwanOutback13,

We made a late change to get Bluetooth and speakers outside but not sure if they will accept the change.

We got:

Outdoor Shower
Inner spring Mattress
Shelving in the tall cupboard
extra water tank
Annex walls
Battery
12V pump

Just a few basic upgrades. Thought we would do a few trips to see if need any extras.
Did you get the package thrown in?

FYI. Here in Sydney their show special was the solar pack and lifestyle pack as listed above. It has been extended for the month of May. We actually got extra stuff thrown in too so bargain hard. They obviously have heaps of mark up.

You can get the material shelves that sit nicely for about 20 bucks from bunnings. They sit in nicely but can pack flat if you want to store different things in the wardrobe.

Shelves are $103. They can't be removed after though.

After having a word with our dealer about the promo they "forgot" to mention to us, have scored the life style pack with our camper.

Thanks SwanOutback13, think our dealer is a little shifty. I guess that is there job though, prey on the ignorance of the consumer.

Has all worked out well, super stoked
