2021 Franklin G4 Caravan

$57,990

Body type Caravan

Vehicle Overview

This 2021 Franklin G4 is a 21-foot caravan configured for comfortable extended travel, with a practical blend of residential-style amenities and off-grid capability. Its interior layout centres on an island queen bed, making the sleeping area easier to access from both sides, while the cafe dinette and tri-fold table provide a flexible place for meals, planning a day’s travel or relaxing indoors.

The kitchen is designed for genuine self-contained touring rather than occasional convenience. A Dometic 188-litre three-way refrigerator offers substantial food storage, while the four-burner cooktop combines three gas burners with one electric element. An oven and griller add cooking flexibility, and a microwave provides a quick alternative when a full meal is not required. The caravan also includes a gas and electric hot-water system, along with a top-loading washing machine.

Living comfort is supported by a roof-mounted Dometic IBIS 4 air conditioner, while entertainment equipment includes an NCE television with built-in DVD player, Winegard TV antenna, Sphere satellite dish and NCE stereo. Internal and external speakers extend the audio system beyond the main living space, giving the layout more versatility when the awning is deployed.

For longer stays away from powered sites, the equipment list includes two 95-litre fresh-water tanks, a 90-litre grey-water tank, a 170-watt solar panel and a 110Ah AGM battery. These provisions are useful for reducing reliance on external services, subject to conditions and individual power and water usage. Outside, the rollout awning creates additional sheltered living space, while the fold-out picnic table and external entertainment hatch make it easier to use the caravan’s exterior as an extension of the living area.

Practical touring features include an external shower, front tool box and reverse camera. The published weights are a 2,489kg tare, 3,089kg ATM and 122kg empty ball mass, specifications that should be considered carefully when matching the caravan to a suitable tow vehicle and planning payload. The listing also states that the caravan is supplied with a current gas certificate and roadworthy certificate.
