There’s a fan for the beds.I like this show, but it can be very frustrating to watch at times. Interior lighting includes overhead LEDs for the main area and reading lights for the beds. This is a minor problem and can be found in many campers with a similar mechanism on their drawers. The pop-in/pop-out button on each handle – to lock it in place and unlock it – is generally a good system but can be prone to becoming fiddly, even sticking.

Looking from the door, to the left is the four-burner stove, then, as you look to the front, the extended lift-up bed and storage, and, swiveling to your right, the Dometic 95-litre fridge (Touring models get the 90-litre fridge), then stainless-steel sink, dinette seat, table, club lounge, double bed, then TV cabinet.ĭrawers are all Ezi glide pull-out style. The interior height tops out at 2070mm high – pretty standard for these campers – and inside is roomy enough not to feel like a confined space, although it will get squeezy if all four adults and two kids are in here and milling about at the same time. Jayco camper-trailers have a nice touring-friendly floor-plan but where the Hawk Outback deviates from the line-up norm is that its kitchen is positioned to the left of the door as you step inside, rather than in front and to the right of you as you step inside on other models.
The Hawk Outback’s interior when looking to the rear.The Hawk Outback’s interior – open and functional – when looking towards the front of the camper.The rest is even easier: position the interior ceiling poles for each bedroom (you left some slack in the canvas walls as advised, so this should be stress-free), and moving furniture from its travel position into its camp-ready position. Pull the canvas down and over each bed’s corners and secure all loose canvas in place with velcro strips. You’ll have to use a bit brute strength to raise the bed up with your shoulder, so you can properly position the struts. Pull the bed out at each end, place the bed support struts, which are stored underneath the mattresses, on each bed base and corresponding point on the camper body, making sure they are securely in position.

It’s simply a matter of unclipping a latch near each top corner of the trailer’s body, taking the winder handle from its rack in the camper’s forward storage space, fitting the winder into position – there’s a space for it at the camper’s rear end of the camper – and then winding until the support bars at each corner are almost at full lock-out, leaving a bit of slack in the canvas. They are not built for hard-core off-roading.)Īnother bonus: visibility is clear and open along both of its sides and even over the top – no need for towing mirrors here.Īll of these Jayco's camper-trailers follow an easy set-up process. (Note: Jayco’s Outback models are designed and engineered for, at worst, dirt roads and gravel roads, not 4WD tracks. The Hawk Outback, like other Outbacks, has a hot dip galvanised Endurance chassis on Jayco’s JTech coil-spring suspension set-up. The Hawk Outback is designed and engineered to cope with light-duty bush driving. It always felt secure on the towball (with a 145kg download) during highway, gravel track and undulating dirt-road driving. The single-axle camper – 5060mm long (including drawbar), 1910mm high, 2240mm wide, and with a 1285kg tare weight – hardly registered behind our tow vehicle, a 2019 Ford Everest, with the new 2.0-litre four-cylinder bi-turbo- diesel engine (157kW/500Nm). (image credit: Brendan Batty)īecause of its compact size – especially relative to caravans which are, by their very nature, generally bigger and bulkier than camper-trailers – the Hawk Outback is a very easy thing tow as it sits low and stable on all surfaces and well within the confines of even narrower bush tracks. The Outback’s specialised JTech coil-spring suspension – in all Outback models – keeps this camper settled on gravel and dirt tracks.
