Overview
The Wicked Desert Sands 4X4 is the off-road option — it seats five and handles gravel and outback routes the maui Cascade cannot. For sealed-road travel, the Cascade is clearly the more capable van: 6.7m with full bathroom, self-contained status, and 130L fridge versus the Desert Sands' no bathroom and 38L fridge. Both require 21. Route type determines the choice — the Cascade for comfortable road touring, the Desert Sands for 4WD adventure.
