I Could Get Used To This.

Practicing for a looming retirement......just trying to decide when to pull the plug.

Bought my camper last year, only used it twice, but sure enjoy going out with it. Cold beers, open fire, and cooking every meal outside...gotta love it.

^^^^^^^^^^ And this

Where was that? Percy Quin?
We used our camper for 35 days last year. So far this year we have used it 9 days and will add another 3 days this weekend at Toledo Bend South.

we have a toy hauler and love it but don't have a 4wheeler any more so we would like to sale it and get something different.

I've been looking at getting a small pop-up to start with. I could see myself being gone from home at least two weekends each month once I get it.

Skip the small popup and go straight to a small traver trailer, you will be surprised there is not much difference in price

Yes, Percy Quin.

My parents started us out as a kid in a pop up and it was a blast. I ought one a few years ago and didn't care for it. Storage is limited and it sucks putting it up or taking it down in the rain. If you get a spot without shade it can get warm without a large A/C unit. I always wanted to get a hybrid to pull but would probably just get a small travel trailer.

It would be three of us camping. The youngest is going to be 15 this year so he may outgrow hanging out with us soon, then it will just be the two of us. I don't have much room to store anything bigger than a pop-up. Can't get anything in the back yard and only have a one car garage, so I'm kind of limited there. I'm not about to spend $100 or more a month to store it at a self storage. I've even been looking at some tear drop campers too. I'm anticipating quick weekend trips not far from home so storage isn't too big of a concern right now. Maybe if we get interested in week long trips I'll go to something bigger.

Nothing wrong with a popup! And I really like teardrops, but not for 3 people. I've always liked the Aliners but the wife wanted a popup with a full bath and shower.

NOLA check out the Hi-Los or Trailmanors. They are low like a popup but when set up are very comfortable. Had a 22 ft. HiLo for a number of years and pulled it with an Expedition. Best relaxing vacations I have ever had with the wife and kids!!

Nice. What tow bars/brakes are you using with your Jeep. I need to get mine set up.

My parents have a 28' Four Winds C Class that we would take on trips when I was a teenager, but I've outgrown it and now prefer this:

Blue Ox base plate with a Ready Brake tow bar (surge brake system). Got the wiring harness from Cool Tech. Works really well.
