Really nice van mate. Bushtracker are known for their quality (and premium price) so I'd expect it to be very good. From what you've said she's no lightweight even at Tare so you'll gobble up the weight to ATM in no time. Don't know if you're tug is that 200 in the video but that would have to have a GVM upgrade and then some to drag the van around loaded and I still suspect you'd be over GCM. Does anyone really need 1000AH of battery power or 2000w of solar, I'm not convinced. There are a few other questions I would ask but I don't want to sound too negative so I'll say each to their own and I hope you and your family have great times and make some great memories with your setup. Happy Travels 😀
Interesting van. Huge solar and batteries, seems like weight overkill give the retained use of gas for cooking, etc. Must have to critically manage loading to stay legal for that tow vehicle, does it have a 4.2t GVM upgrade ? Whats the GCM to stay legal? Have an EC Offroad head unit in my cruiser. Its glitchy and have found aftersales support to be very poor. Puts me off touching their Lithium upgrades.
I think you’ll find you’ve pretty much eaten your 850kg carrying capacity between 500 ish kg of water and 180kg for you batteries plus charging system ect…adds up very quickly.
Everything works really well if not really really really well!
Nice van. Only thing to add would be Should have gone with Airbag suspension and a 48v safiery system mate. Next van may be.
Could only imagine the cost $$$

how long and heavy is your trailer with all that setup? what are you towing it with?
Why dcs batteries and not yours? Nice build
We use dcs batterys in most of our builds
Can you add better water monitoring gauges to existing van?
Yes we certainly can
Don't do enerdrive water monitors absolutely terrible, most inaccurate piece of tech😢
