We have upgraded
« on: October 08, 2017, 02:20:36 PM »
So Linda sent a msg yesterday to meet at caravan camping show.  So we did.
Brought a fire pit!
On the way home Linda sends another msg about a cross over. We decide to go back and look at it today.
Liked it but Ug wanted to look at something else once again.
On the way we go past the lifestyle campers. Oh lots of swaggers have lifestyle lets have a look.
So we did.
Well, we have ordered a lifestyle breakaway ultra!!
With a few optional extras for the show special and a few of our own.

Now to sell our beloved 3 year old, hardly used outback tanami with loads of extras.

Linda it's your fault

Now I will stress until it arrives

We didn't get the electric roof. We were talking about it last night though. Debating if we should add it. It's s lot of $$$&. If something goes wrong can you still lift manually? What other extras did you gets

The actuators are the linak brand which are very reliable from what I can see it wouldn't be too hard to remove them if something went wrong as far as extras go we got the usual show special extras shocks/wheels / 2 water tanks / awnings /dual batteries then added the electric lift bcdc charger system and reading lights

decided not for the actuators atm.
we got extra water tank, dual batteries, rock sliders, extra drawers at the end of the bed, front protection, shower system, upgrade in suspension, full annex, battery charger...that will do us for the moment as can always add on.

Where will the e tra drawers go?

I wouldn't have thought there would be room.   I just had a look at the floor plans.  Are you getting bunks?
