I was shopping for a new 27ft Airstream trailer and big truck a few years back when the "recession" pretty much killed my consulting business and it's probably not coming back.
So, tired of waiting and anxious to get out camping, I jumped on a used (1991) small class-c 22' that was for sale in the neighborhood.
Thinking it would be temporary until we got the trailer I started enjoying the compact and convenient class-c.
Ours has solar so we can camp off grid and rarely start the generator.
And now I'm rethinking my long term path and seriously wanting a new smaller class-c instead of the Airstream. The new Winnebago Trend is very interesting. The only thing for me is I feel I need to tow a car. I hate being stuck in the campground with no way to get out and about without packing everything up. Even for a trip to the store. But a little car or even an old dune buggy would be just fine.
