well.. we are off in the morning to collect our new (to us) van. we have down sized. not by much, buy I cant believe the amount of STUFF ! I have taken out of our present van. there is no way we are going to get it all back in the new one. just hope we have done the right thing. got a touch of buyers remorse I think. anyone else had second thoughts at the last minuet ?

You will manage, just consider what you actually used and discard the rest.
We downsized from a 30' RV to a 21' Hymer , ooh now that was not easy the weight being the biggest problem.

god larry that's a big drop. I'm sure we will cope

The weight issue was the RV at 6577kg had a payload of 900kg but the Hymer at 3500kg had a payload of 400kg , anyway the wife follows on a bike now :D

We swapped our 32' Winnebago with 1600kg payload to a 22' Swift with a 400kg payload. We just take less beer and 4 fewer tv's! I am sure you will be fine.
