Aluminum Frame vs Wood Frame for washboard roads.

We are wrapping up our first year with our old truck camper. It's been nice having it. It is a 1995 Northland. Of course, looking for a great deal on a camper that might work a little better. Prima...

The folks that really use their campers off road (ie washboard roads and much, much worse) seem to prefer aluminum framed campers - Four Wheel Campers, All Terrain Campers, OutFitter. The one exception is Hallmark who use molded fiberglass but they offer an aluminum internal frame option.

Good places to read up on this are Expedition Portal and Wander the West.
