AUSTRALIAN MADE. 🇦🇺
We want to sell caravans that are built here in Australia, employ people here, support Australian suppliers and businesses wherever we can, and put money back into the communities and economy that have supported us for the past 22+ years.
That brings us to the next chapter — our partnership with Drive RV.
We’re extremely excited to be teaming up once again with Scott Grant and Dave Wilson, the original founders of Essential Caravans & Design RV.
Together, Scott and Dave bring something quite unique to the caravan industry — many years of hands-on caravan manufacturing experience, combined with decades of experience running a caravan dealership and dealing directly with customers.
They understand both sides of this industry.
They know what it takes to build a great caravan, but just as importantly, they know what happens after that caravan leaves the factory.
They understand customers, dealers, warranty, servicing and after-sales support. Most importantly, they understand how important it is to deliver genuine value for people spending their hard-earned money.
Scott and Dave and have done it before, and now we’re joining them again.
With our partnership with Drive RV, our goals are simple — to once again give Australians one of the best-value Australian-built caravans on the market.🇦🇺
After more than 20 years in this industry, we’re probably more excited about the future than we have ever been.
There are no hard feelings and no negativity.
Essential Caravans and Lifestyle Caravans are simply choosing different paths for the future.
We believe strongly in Australian manufacturing. 🇦🇺
We thank Essential Caravans for the journey we have shared and genuinely wish them every success with their next chapter.
Now it’s time for ours.
🇦🇺 Drive RV.
Australian built. Supporting Australian workers, Australian businesses and our Australian economy.
We’re just getting started.
