Have you checked out. http://zonerv.com.au

You could build your own to your specs. That way you can control the total weight.

Thought the Tvan came in under 1000kg? Aliens does. Enough room for 2 and easy to set up. They do hold their value well though and even older ones will set you back a bit.

They look very impressive. Look they are pretty new as there are not many examples on their site yet.

Might have to have a think...

Tvans do come in just under 1000KG (890 to 990kg) empty and then cargo over 500Kg so 1500 + Kg on the road/track.

For what you get (room) they seem expensive I think. I have read they are not real good for people with mobility problems and I have a bad back so might be a problem. Pity because they were on the first wish list before the CUB.

Lotto yes please but by PM. If I'm going to buy some of these things I can't share the prize much..

I told you I think I set the bar TOO HIGH..... Now I'm sure I have..

Weight limit is your issue IMHO. Even with our Trak Shak we are 1.5 ton loaded. A hard top crossover would be the same or higher - especially when you are talking loaded ready to go.

We've been talking for a while now of getting one of the UEV (Conqueror) models when the kids grow up and start heading out the door. Figured it'd be a good compromise for what we want.

The UEV 440 is 1.1 ton unloaded, and can be up to 1.8 ton all up - you could keep that last figure lower dependant on what you take. IMHO that's not a bad figure to be towing.
