We have signed up for it. It's definitely compact to tiny but is a genuine off road camper/crossover whatever.
Suspension and design are impressive. Quality control seems good. The whole product is assembled by one bloke. Bit expensive but it's a competitive market. Look at the top of the range canvas items. Kimberleys top $50,000 now. We also looked at a Topaz. Too much like a caravan for us. And looks cold. Everything inside is steel from cupboards to roof and walls. Might have condensation problems. As we all know, nothing is perfect in this camping/travelling business. We have gone through 5 camper trailers, one caravan (lasted one year only), three different tents, and had a period where we only travelled in the troopy, sleeping in the back and living outside the car. This Vista is the last way we are going to travel. haha

Congrats,
The Vista was high on our list for awhile. We went another direction (Caravan) as we wanted more room, but it was a toss up.
I very much liked the size and facilities provided in the Vista and reckoned if we ended up with one I would have been happy as it was by far the best of the lot in my opinion. If for some reason the caravan deal fell through (not likely though) I would strongly reconsider the Vista.
So i reckon you have made a great choice,
Happy Vistaring.
Richard

Looks impressive. I have never seen one before, but will certainly check it out at the next
Sydney caravan show.
Happy traveling.

Bruce,
Well done! I commented in your last post how we shortlisted the VistaRv and the AORC Eclipse nearly equal but went the Eclipse for that little bit of extra comfort but a bit less offroad ability
We and Richard C will have to swap notes in 12 months time to see how satisfied we are!
Of interest can I ask what age group you are in, we are low 60's?
