ZONE RV, in a ZONE of its own!
3 months in now & we are even more in love with our new home on wheels! 😀
Hey Brad and Hayley,
I was wondering where you got your Starlink pole and did you run the cable through that wall?
Cheers Andrew.
@@Andonella_Travels Hey Andrew, its a spacetek carbon fibre pole. spacetek.com.au/products/carbon-fibre-telescopic-rv-mount-for-starlink-gen-2 The Starlink cable is run to RHS of van through a RJ45 passthrough in the wall to under the L shape seat where they've mounted their modem.
We need this in the USA! We have a pause and Imperial outdoors, but your interior and diesel use is second to none
Thanks for the kind words! We hope one day we can bring our caravans to the US 😊🇺🇸
Guys you have us even more excited if that’s even possible looking forward to our Zone Home delivery lol
I’m so glad our build will include all the new innovative features Zone has added. So thrilled for you both and looking forward to all the adventures you bring us every week 🤩🤩
Thanks for tuning in Mark & Christine!
We hope your wait is flying by & we look forward to seeing you soon 😊
Well after watching that video I am really impressed how you guys come across. No put ons or epics just a great 30 minute video about Peregrine built by the best caravan manufacturer in Australia. You guys should be very proud of yourselves. Adrian is also really good on the interview side of things. Well hopefully we might meet you guys on the road sometime as we pick up our Sojourn late February . Meanwhile we will keep following your journey. Safe travels and keep up the good work.
Thanks for the kind words! The product speaks for itself here. You never know where the guys will pop up so keep an eye out 😀
See you late Feb guys and thanks for the comment 🙏🏼
Awesome video guys zone vans are really setting the standards of the way vans should go 👍👍
Thank you Gordon! 😀
Zone best caravans out there, saving hard. Beautiful van congratulations guys and great video.
Thanks Brett! It will be worth the wait 😀
Very interesting tour ,I would like to see some more detail observations on items like bed operation ,do you always use the extension,with the Starlink pole where is the connection to the router (what is location of router) . Keep the videos coming very helpful and entertaining
Hey Garry, the bed is very simple its just slides out around 6 or 8 inches and we slip the bolster in between the head of the bed and mattress. We use the Starlink pole not always, but most of the time. It gets the dish up nice and high and then is out of the way so people cannot run over it with there car or trip on the cable. The cable plugs into the side of the van via RJ45 bulkhead, then connects to the router which we are storing out of sight under neath the L shape lounge 👍
Very impressive, guys. Your on a winner👌
Thanks for the kind words Steve! 😀
Thanks Steve! 🙏
It really is a hell of a great van. If Zone would respond to emails it would be a great help too! I admit I don’t know a thing about composting toilets but the people I have spoken to are rather pessimistic about them, switching across between poo and wee every time you need to use a toilet, what happens if both occur at the same time? I could have this completely wrong but that’s what I’m told..
I have in the past been committed to spending my hard earned dollars on a Zone but at the $140k to 200k depending on your choices, one would think you could choose your own toilet amongst other things..
What about the added weight you’re carrying around with you everywhere you go? I could be swayed either way still but I need more understanding of this if someone would be kind enough to reply?
Otherwise Awesome van we really love it.
Hey Phil, you don't need to change compartments when using, the 1s & 2s simply go into seperate chambers. Its quite simple and much less work and stench than the chemical alternative. This video th-cam.com/video/lbD-b2QojGk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2ZTcXZcjQlwmM3df&t=550 is a simple and informative run down, start around the 9 minute mark 👍 It should give you a great idea on how it works and why they are superior to the chemical alternative.
@@ZoneRV Thanks for the helpful feedback, I watched the video from beginning to end. I can see the benefits of it now Thanks! However I still have questions… btw sorry about the grubby topic but .. well we all do it every day so it may as well be discussed.
So it seems in a caravan environment where space is key, and we don’t want to be having to empty it more than we have to. What are people doing with all that toilet paper? If that’s going in the trash bin beside the toilet that’s a lot of filth we’re potentially keeping in the caravan temporarily?
Also the cleaning up process every time one has a dump? I guess these questions are true whatever toilet type you have..
It must take some getting use to.. I’ve just gotta convince the Mrs now that’s gonna be the hard part..
Thanks again for the explanation I’ll consider this when Caravan purchase time comes along.
@@philmarriott8084 Hey Phil! Lets get into the grub! As for the toilet paper we just use normal 2 ply and discard it in the no.2 compartment. We do however break it into singular sheets so it doesn't wrap around the agitator. Clean up process is simple and easy, usually there is no mess. Zone supply a spray bottle with a chemical that is kind to the compost which you just spray and wipe where required if there is any mess. We have a little water bottle next to the loo to rinse the no.1 section of the bowl, which eliminates odour and resuide. Also, a dash of vinegar in the no.1 compartment removes any urine odors.
Hi Brad and Hayley, can you let me know how you fixed the spacetek carbon pole to the back of the van. Theres a bit of discussion on the facebook page about this currently. Cheers
We met you guys at the OffGrid day was great to chat, we ended up ordering one on the day. So excited, excellent to see how your setup is and what you use for storage. Two questions, would the Weber fit sideways with the rails like you have them, or with the rails does it fit better that way. Also how is the Starlink two piece pole holders fitted to the van, I have been looking at the exact system online, is it just Sikaflex or is it screwed as well. Happy & safe travels to you and maybe we’ll see you on the road somewhere.
Awesome to hear David! No the weber only fits length ways, i know it clashes with the pole carrier but probably too wide for the tunnel boot opening too. The Spacetek is fastened and sikaflexed. Same to you, safe travels & we will see you out there 😊
Great van, well presented.
Thank you! 👍 glad you enjoyed 😊
Don’t remove the option to have cafe seating in the Peregrine, its more comfortable for both watching TV
Thanks for the note Helen! 😊
Fully agree Helen. We're looking at purchasing soon and would hate to lose the cafe seating arrangement for the Peregrine.
This is such a nice van. We have constraints with room for reversing into out property and the max length is 18ft. Sort of wish you made smaller models ….so I’ll just need to dream 😊
Thanks for the kind words Susan. That's a bit of a bummer, the extra foot doesn't look like much externally but makes a massive difference on the internal feel. 😊
Hi Guys - picking up our new Peregrine early Feb. Who installed your carbon fibre spacetek pole. Was it screwed and glued?
Hey, yes it is fastened to the van and glued also 😊
Thanks - can you say who installed it.@@our.australia.trip.
Hey Brad Hayley, just a long shot but will you be in Western Australia Soon. would love to get a look at the van. We are seriously looking at Zone but have some reservations around the front door. Iam in Busselton but willing to travel a bit to get a look.
Hey Andrew, we will let them know 😊
Zone is the best.
We completely agree 🙌
Hay what is the Starlink pole you are using?
Hey Scott, it's a carbon fibre spacetek pole. spacetek.com.au/products/carbon-fibre-telescopic-rv-mount-for-starlink-gen-2
Hi guys love the van just a question around webber bbq.Does it fit into the front boot without taking the lid off. I have the same bbq and have a zone on order. Thanks..
Hey Matt, yes the baby q just squeezes in with the lid on!
Sweet thanks guys hope to see you on the road. Good travels.
Where is that filmed at? How do they get the water so blue?
It’s called Bluff Creek near Kenilworth. They dye the water I’m pretty sure. It’s still a really clear and clean water hole!
Thanks @@ZoneRV
Where is this camp spot looks lovely
Hey! This is Bluff Creek Campground out near Kenilworth 🙌
How is that an outdoor kitchen theres no taps or sink,???
Hey Chris, we supply a portable induction cooktop, folding sink and tap with every build. To the right of the fold down table there is a hot/cold water outlet.
Great van. But out of my price range.
Thanks for the kind words Frank
