Potentially Moronic Question

Hello!

I am continuing to worry/work through/plan a cross country trip with my boys for summer 2015. I'm still in the beginning planning stages and am a super-newbie. I've never camped before.

I was looking online at the Trailmanor and Camplite models and talking to my husband about them. I was saying it would be convenient to be able to unhook our vehicle and go exploring vs having to take a Class C with us.

Then he asked me "How are you going to keep the camper from being stolen?"

I looked at him and told him they just aren't but honestly the thought had never occurred to me. I'm sure there is some amazingly obvious answer to this, but what keeps someone from just hitching your trailer up to their vehicle and leaving the campground?

Yikes! I was gonna read all before responding, didn't get past the first post...

We are campers. We watch out for eachother. We are all friends, some of whom just don't know eachother yet.

I often leave my bus unlocked, particularly when it's time to walk the dogs and #3 son is out and about somewhere.

We don't worry about campground security. any camper who would mess with us either needs it way more than we do, or is inviting karma to rain on each and every day he or she spends in any camprground for the rest of thier days.
