Off Road Fever in Australia

Off Road Caravans and Motorhomes are sprouting up like mushrooms after the rain. This is a one off for a Customer by Kedron
Some features
Designed to run the appliances including the air-conditioning when free camping, the big-ticket 12V system includes the 1000W-plus solar panels that top up a 900Ah Enerdrive lithium battery system, (three 300amp lithium power packs), backed by two 1800W-plus inverters that slot under the bed.
The electrics are controlled from an overhead locker with more switches than an aeroplane cockpit, including gauges and switches for the grey water tank, battery charger, and hot water system. The Kedron also boasts a new “booster and repeater station” set-up to enhance out-of-town mobile reception .It’s the first TopEnder model fitted with Kedron’s new ‘ALS’ auto-levelling airbag suspension. Twelve months in development and designed with the Airbag Man, the ALS system includes a dedicated external locker containing a German-made pump, air inflation tank and hand-held control offering three ‘auto’ modes: off-road, highway and parked, along with manual adjustmentThere’s a speed sensor located on the rearmost axle, that will automatically flick over to highway mode if accidentally left in ‘parked’, at speeds over 20km/h. Likewise, it will default to highway mode from off-road, at speeds over 80km/h.

There's also a second pump fitted, for inflating tyres on both the caravan and tow vehicle.

All six wheels are stopped by disc brakes, and feature KRS removable stub axles.
The extra-long 3.2m long kitchen bench features two sinks plus a drainer, a separate tap delivering instant chilled, filtered or boiling water, a domestic-style pull-out dishwasher, a combination convection microwave/oven, a three burner (two gas/one induction) cooktop, a six-bottle wine chiller, and a compressor 95L fridge/freezer drawer along with a full-height 218L compressor fridge freeze
