Hi all, Planning a trip next year around OZ. Have decided on a Jayco stlye of pop up camper. The Dove looks the goods as far as layout size etc. Can anyone tell me the names of other brands that do a similar camper to Jayco.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Surfer Boy,
We were all set on a Jayco Swan but decided to look at the Coromal Silhouette on the way to ordering the Jayco. We didin't get to the Jayco dealer, but ordered the Silhouette on
the spot. IMHO Coromal's quality was far superior and the off road version seemed much more rodust. Our shake down trip is next weekend to Wood's Point.
Another to look at is the Goldstream Storm.
Good Luck. "Live today as if there may be no tomorrow"

G'day SURFer Boy, We picked up our Dove Jayco a short while ago (4 weeks), although we haven't done any long trips we are very happy with it.
Reguardless of other comments we have found the finsh to be of a high quality.
We did opt for a few extras, eg inner spring mattress- a must, auxillary battery set up inside van - charged while on the move, charged by solar panel when on longer stops, Tregg coupling, matched wheels and tyres to pulling vehicle.
We've met families on the road with there Jaycos and the majority are more than happy with theres.
Hope that helps, see you on the road ..................maybe next year on the Gunbarrel???
