Wow. Did the dealer claim they did a pre-delivery inspection?

If KK added a thermostatic mixing valve, their marketing department might consider adding "Safety" to their existing feature categories (Lightweight, Smart Energy, Hi Tech Comfort, Superior Suspension, Valuable Water). With induction cooking and diesel heating, they can (perhaps) already boast...

In my opinion all RVs should be required to have an anti-scald device of some kind for the shower fixture. RVs seem more dangerous than most homes, since their tiny shower stalls offer no space to move out of the water flow in a scald situation. I believe that most water heaters are set to...

It seems obvious to me that most potential Kimberley customers in North American are going to be interested in sometimes towing/camping in freezing conditions. The stress and hassle of doing that would be greatly decreased if Kimberley products had temperature sensors at several key plumbing...

It appears that Australia-->USA shipping alone could be $25 right now. This is definitely a challenging time to be launching any imported product line.

This may be old news to readers of this thread, but I'll mention it anyway ... B&B RV in Denver is now "a non-stocking dealer for Kimberly", i.e. they can help you order one but cannot show you one. KK USA apparently has plans to show "a Kamper, Karavan and possibly a Kruiser" at the Overland...

Thanks for posting those pictures. If you get any pictures showing how the trailer is packaged for shipping, I'm sure many North American KK fans would be interested to see those. Same for any pictures of the final manufacturing work done in California (e.g. lithium battery install).

I am very impressed by KK's technical excellence, and their aesthetic decisions. I'm no expert, but I'm not aware of any product in North America that could provide comparable performance and comfort. I'm sure we all hope that other RV brands in North America will soon offer at lease a...

Dave has been very responsive to my questions about KK products. Since I'm not making any purchase in the near term, I throttle my inquiries so that he can spend his valuable time with more likely buyers. :) I guess the point of my post was to suggest (to KK) topics that may be on the minds...

That's a very effective video tour of the E Kruiser! Hopefully KK will produce a supplemental video covering topics of special interest to customers in the North American market. Here are some ideas: * Details of the optional winter package, and general discussion of how the 2021 Kruiser...

It looks like the T3 would support full-time occupancy almost anywhere, very comfortably. The T3 looks like an awesome machine. I look forward to hearing your comments on the T3's design and build, especially in cold conditions.

I am disappointed too.

Does anyone reading this thread have information about how the North American versions of the Kruiser models protect the water systems (fresh tanks, fresh lines, waste tanks, waste lines) in sub-freezing conditions? Thanks

Keep in mind that it's much, much easier to achieve one of the "sub-freezing" and "off-grid" goals than it is to achieve both at the same time. For example, many trailers can handle freezing conditions using electric heating elements on the exposed tanks and plumbing lines. The power...

If your "four seasons ready" goal means that the product should remain fully operational in sub-freezing conditions, without shore power, then I think that is very, very difficult to find in the North American towable market. I've been looking for that same capability for a while now. To...
