Our new camping trailer....
Well some may know last year we started using a small pop up
 Great way to start into trailer camping....small, light, elec,water, but....no shower or toilet. So a week ago dad & I make a trip over to a local camper center that has quite a few pop ups....just goofing & spending the day together. (not many dealers around here have pop ups....mostly larger RV's only) After shopping around I come to find out that a pop up with shower & toilet & fridge, stove, ect is 12K plus.....  So.....as we are leaving the owner shows us the last remaing Que he has....  ............its sale priced just a little more than a pop up Advantages: BIGGEST-no cranking it up  Shower, toilet, full kitchen, queen bed, air, heat, hot water, I could keep going but you get the idea. Disadvantages: taller-more wind drag, heavier  So I head home & tell the  ...........Bingo we have a new camper.A few pics to enjoy. __________________  You can't fix Stupid---CottonLand Cruisers----- ---White Trash of the Elwood Chapter----  ---STLCA---- ------------------------------------------------ We've been this close to death before, we were just too drunk to know it Guess the price of being sobers being scared out of your mind -Drive by Truckers- ----------------------------------------------- |

 This was one thing that I pondered since dad just got a 40.....but I offered the pop up to him & he opted for the OZ Tent. Kinda wanted something for the wife & I to enjoy...no kids are in our future. __________________ You can't fix Stupid---CottonLand Cruisers----- ---White Trash of the Elwood Chapter---- ---STLCA---- ------------------------------------------------ We've been this close to death before, we were just too drunk to know it Guess the price of being sobers being scared out of your mind -Drive by Truckers- ----------------------------------------------- |

THATS WHERE I AM RIGHT NOW WENT CAMPING THIS WEEKEND DOWN IN HOLISTER, CA. COLD/RAIN. THE POP-UP IS GREAT BUT SIZE IS BECOMING AN ISSUE. (2 DAUGHTERS AND WIFE).
STOPPED IN AND SHOPPED FOR A 5TH WHEEL TODAY. BIG MONEY!!!! BUT I THINK THE WIFE IS READY TO MAKE THE MOVE. (READ: SHE NOW HAS A JOB) IT'LL BE TOUGHT TO GIVE UPTHE OLD POP-UP EASE OF USE AND LOW MAINTAINANCE. GREAT BUY I'M A LITTLE JEALOUS. __________________ 1972 FJ40 TLCA #16396 "you can run all your life and never go anywhere" Shameless link to my Breast Cancer walk page:  Please click link below.http://info.avonfoundation.org/site/...480&px=4000403 |

Understand....we went to only look.....read in wife said no new camper  One thing to do is look at a few different dealers & different models......we were set on a new pop up with shower/toilet/fridge.....but again it was within 1k of what we paid for a hard sided camper I would honeslty look at a model thats been there a year or more but is still new...you can get them to come off a bunch
