RV REVIEW EVEREST KOMBAT IN ACTION! SUBSCRIBE Though the company is quite young, Everest Caravans appears to be establishing itself as a long-term player in the Australian RV manufacturing industry. That’s if the style, fit and finish and overall build integrity are anything to go by. This, I suppose, shouldn’t be a surprise – the man behind Everest has 15 years of experience building offroad vans for other companies and spends plenty of time on the tools rather than with his feet up on a desk. I have to say, this experience shows in the 19ft 7in Kombat that I took for closer inspection in November. " The Everest stable of vans is comprised of eight different vans. Two months ago, we looked at the top-end Ice Glider, a purposeful family van with offroad credibility. The littlest is the 18ft Camo – a rig I’d love to get my hands on soon – and this Kombat sits somewhere in the middle. SMART INTERIOR Interestingly, the Kombat bears some similarities to its big sister, the Ice Glider. Though the Ice Glider is a couple of feet longer, the 19ft 7in (external body length) Kombat easily fits a large rear kids’ bedroom with three nearside bunks (or you can opt for two bunks instead), a massive rear cupboard, and a separate offside bathroom.
