I'll keep you posted on what we decide to do.
My biggest fear is pulling it on those narrow, winding, gravel roads that are so common in the areas where we would want to go camping!

PS: Our caravan isn't nearly as luxurious as Grumpy Goats! We do have a kitchen, toilet and bath and a private front queen bedroom though
Yeah, NO suburbans here either.
The 4x4s here are much smaller. The Pajero is a larger one. Or a Range Rover--that is really the biggest kind of "truck" you will see here. Can they actually pull anything though? I kind of always thought of them like those Cadillac "trucks"--all poof and no pull.
And almost every pick up truck is a Toyota here.
The cars are definitely small here.
And a caravan like yours with all those amenities is quite luxurious in NZ!!
