Hello dear California enthusiasts,

First of all, thank you for adding me to this great group.
Allow me to introduce myself. We are a family from Ghent, Belgium with a 7-year-old son.
After more than 10 years of renovating our house,
it was time for us to enjoy and I purchased a used T6 California Ocean two years ago.
After many trips and vacations with a total of 66 overnight stays, I took the step five weeks ago to exchange this vehicle for a Grand California.
This was not an easy decision knowing that this is my daily vehicle.
Even in bad weather, I pick my son up from school with it.

After the few weekends we have already taken it out, we have experienced the disadvantages but mostly the advantages, and it is truly enjoyable.

Here's to many more adventures.

Good choice !
Love the colour.
Have you found the pull outs in the front bumper to clean the front windscreen yet ?

Ghent is an amazing city , I’m there 3 times a year, staying at the Marriot hotel on the river by St Michael’s Church in the centre.

I was very close to getting the Sven, which is another good choice.

Hey and thanks.

For me it was also the color setting that made the decision and the condition of the vehicle, knowing that this beast is already 4 years old and has only 10563 miles.
No I have not found this yet and will definitely look into it.
It is also still discovering how everything works and how we can store our material (the kitchen of the T6 was bigger) but it is starting to work with small adjustments.
For example, I have already added a shelf in the rear cupboard and above the water tank. I have moved the appliances in the cupboard where the electricity is and also adjusted the panels to have more space.
And added a socket so that I can connect a mobile solar panel and charge the home battery.

Yes, Ghent is a beautiful city and we often hear this from people who don't live there.
But if you do live there, you'll want to get away from it. (That's probably the case everywhere)

What do you mean by the Sven?

And yes, it’s the case for every town. I think we always want to be somewhere else. But home is where we park it hey!
