JUMBO - Page 2 Mitsubishi Canter 4WD Motorhome Accesories The standard Mitsubishi steel bar still graces the front of the Canter, and affords more real-life protection from roos, cattle or trees than the majority of the alloy aftermarket alternatives available. A set of Hella driving lights sit up front on the bar, which also houses the front winch. If you're thinking that the Canter probably didn't come from the Mitsubishi factory with the rubber it's wearing in the photos, you're right. A set of tough-as-nails Michelin XML tyres measuring in at a stonking 325/85R16 (think 37x12.5 in the old money!) take care of most traction issues, even considering the size of the vehicle overall. Ain't nothin' small about this touring beast! Along the top of the camper body, a full-length steel roof rack provides mounting space for any extras that need to be taken along, as well as the Campersat TV reception satellite. Now who says being in the middle of the Simmo is a reason to miss Neighbours? Another cool addition to the vehicle from the Warrior factory is the inclusion of monitoring cameras at the front (underneath the bullbar) and rear (up top between the spare wheels, looking down) of the vehicle. Because the bulk of the body makes for mega blind-spots, the cameras hooked up to the in-cab LCD screen make up for it by providing ample vision front and rear. Wondering how the hell you'd get a 37in wheel off the rear-wheel holder to change a flat? Well, a forklift would be a good option, but funnily enough, they're a bit of a rarity when you head bush. No problemo, Warrior thought of that and have set up a pneumatic (air-operated) system that allows the wheels to fold down on their carrier arms to ground level, to allow for easy transfer of wheels. Lucky thing too, because buggered if you could lift rubber that size! The body inside and out Inside, the vehicle is as decked out as you'd want in an offroad tourer, providing you with all of the modern conveniences you get used to when you live at home. In fact, the inclusions in this vehicle put to shame what I have in my home! Leather seats around a central dining table, (complete with seatbelts so they're legal to sit in on the move!), a massive air-conditioning unit, stainless steel kitchen and bathroom appointments, an oven and stove combination, a cosy double bed, LCD television, DVD player and stereo, and storage compartments everywhere make for one comfortable trip. You couldn't just live in the thing for a year or two on your way around the 'Big Trip', you'd be inclined to buy a permanent block at a nice caravan park and live in it for the rest of your days! The outside of the camper body is just as well thought-out as the inside. Compartments down either side of the body next to the chassis rails store everything from twin gas-bottles for cooking, to all of the batteries, the Honda generator, shovels, picks and other recovery equipment, and a heap more electronic gear. Talk about taking the kitchen sink with you! BRIEFLY |
