types of caravan Page 31

Wondering about the types of caravan? Australia dishes up full-height tourers for proper comfort; pop-tops that duck under carports yet tow sweetly; off-road vans with beefed-up suspension and extra clearance; hybrids that mix camper-trailer toughness with caravan niceties; tiny teardrops for minimalist weekends; and hulking fifth-wheelers for folks who think reversing is a personality trait. Family bunk vans, slide-outs, and toy haulers exist too if bikes and boards insist on tagging along. Choose based on tow capacity, GVM/GCM, and where you’ll actually go—sand tracks or just the servo for sausage rolls. If unsure, hire first, then browse Tradingpost and keep the budget for fuel and ice creams. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
