In the JB 2017 Gator can someone tell me which powerpoint the inverter runs?
2 answers
We don’t have a Gator (we have a Dirt Roader), so I can’t compare. I do suggest that if you haven’t joined the JB National Owners Group on Facebook, you’ll get loads of feedback from owners (it’s for potential JB caravan owners too, in case you haven’t purchased one yet)
Thanks Buddy. We have purchased a JB Gator and we finally worked out that the inverter wasn't turned on lol. Thanks for your reply!

do jb make a caravan with tare weight of2500 kg
1 answer
Ours has a tare of 2568, so I would say yes as we had quite a few extras added to our dirt Roader. E.g. side club lounge with sting layout, 2 extra solar panels to standard. Best to check directly with them though. Cheers
Noblesasked

How to fill water tanks on Dreamline away from mains. No fillers
2 answers
Go and buy a 20 litre water container and go to mains to fill it. Get it back to the van and tip the water into the van. (20 litres is pretty heavy to lift up to pour it in). Or carry extra water with you but be aware of the extra weight your car and van are carrying
Nowhere to tip the water in, there are no inlets only a connector to put water in off mains

Does the dust hatch in roof work. There is no filter. Any body sealed the internal fridge vents above and below fridge. Seems external vents should provide enough air?

Any known problems off road with this model?
5 answers
Hi MLO, we have had our DR extreme now for six months & taken it off road and have had no problems. Steve
Thanks Steve, we live in the Kimberley and dirt roads are par for the course, the places we would be visiting are only accessible via the dirt, so that is good to know.
It's like everything else, nice and steady and things work out okay.
Mark
Mark, yes I was told that about just taking it a bit slower and you can get through most situations in the bush. We havent done any real hard places yet just fairly easy off road but we are heading up your way in March April next year and continuing across the top to Qld. Should be a great trip. I bought a caravan cover last week as I dont have an undercover area and wanted to protect our bight orange JB stickers & paint, lol. Take care & we might cross paths up north.

Simon Jasked
We’re looking at a 20’ family scorpion. Seems wee set up but wondering whether to spend the extra to go the Scorpion Sting? Has anyone found anything in the base model underdone? Diff seems primarily the electrical capacity.
2 answers
Hi Simon, we bought the Semi Off road, Dirtroader. We have the smaller inverter and find the solar panel & generator do the job for off road for us but ours doesn’t have all the Sting feature. We liked the Sting but just weren’t going full off road. Steve
Thanks very much Steve
