RV REVIEW The laden ball weight, however, is very likely to be over the 300kg maximum towball mass of some mid-size 4WDs, such as the MU-X, but there are some available; otherwise, you would probably be looking at one of the many 3500kg-rated dual cab utes or wagons when matching the Camo to a suitable tow vehicle. That said, the Camo is certainly appealing. At the rear, there are a couple of jerry can holders and a reversing camera, while you’ll find two 100Ah house batteries inside a protective checkerplate compartment mounted to the offside main chassis member. On the nearside, Everest has fitted a stainless steel slide-out kitchen that plumbs directly to the van’s gas supply via a bayonet “ coupling, and a couple of taps are there, too, to hook the kitchen to the van’s water tanks/hot water service. CLEVER CAMO The real beauty of the Camo is on the inside. Its 18ft interior length hasn’t prevented Everest from fitting it out as a true family caravan – with a split bathroom! The secret is the east-west bed tucked into the front of the rig. Its orientation has freed up a lot of space for other important living features. The front bedroom also comes with overhead lockers, a 12V fan, a rain sensor hatch with remote control, a reading light with USB port, and even a swivel arm for a flatscreen TV. ITS 18FT INTERIOR HASN'T PREVENTED EVEREST FROM FITTING OUT THE CAMO AS A TRUE FAMILY CARAVAN. 26 \ ”
