Bought our first camper
We bought a 2005 Dutchmen Lite 18B from our neighbors who are moving out of the country for a few years. This is our first ever RV/Camper/travel trailer and we are looking forward to owning it. I've spent a few nights in it the past couple years as it was our lodging for a BBQ cook off I've competed in for the past few years.
They bought it from someone who used it as a mobile office. So, the front fold out sofa was removed for a couch. A futon now resides there. The bed was replaced by the people we bought it from. The camper is not perfect, but has no leaks and everything does work fine.
It is missing the RV batteries. They only took it to places with hook-ups, so he never replaced them. The stock fridge was replaced with a non-camper specific 120V unit.
It does come furnished with bedding, supplies (plates, silverware, etc) the sewer and water hookups, etc. It also came with a weight distribution hitch. I do have to raise it up a notch as the hitch on their Yukon was a bit higher than my Sierra.
This spring, I plan on getting it out of the storage unit and into our driveway so we can get it cleaned up, checked out and made our own.
I'm sure I'll haved a ton of questions regarding the batteries, general use, upgrades, etc in the coming months.
