We’re in Adelaide and looking for around a 15 foot pop top under $65k. Any recommendations on brands? We do not like the quality of AusTrack or EzyTrail. I know basically everything at our price is going to be made in China, but I'm sure there are differently qualities around. Anyone have any recommendations?
Anyone Own a Hybrid / Pop Top Caravan?

Yes
The Patriot has a range of 70km
Yeah, I've hired one before. Didn't rate them at all.
Build quality or design/layout?
Not the super tourer which is like $150k, but their x-range. We pull up a lot after dark, and they're just too inconvenient to set up when it's dark or in shit weather. More so they just didn't fit our purpose.
ask on FB caravanning groups
Saul, are you buying the caravan for WW or Jesse or you're doing the cook yourself?
Going out on my own. Haven't heard from Jesse in a few years and WW is dead.
IMO theres so many brands your decision has to come down to design and features before you look at quality. Keep looking online, visit local van yards. Ideally go to a van show where you can see a bunch innthe same day.
We looked at a bunch last year. Some were ruled out very quickly because we needed extra long bunks, others just didnt feel right. The one we ended up with 'felt right' immediately but also oassed the features test oncs we looked into every nook and cranny.
Have you looked at the Patriot range?
