How much weight could be eliminated?
A bit of a hypothetical question here but I got to wondering how many items on a camper could be eliminated while still providing a camping experience with minimal compromise. To that end, I thought i...

Or in other words, remove all the items in the first post and now you have a camper with no legs so it can’t be removed. No AC, which is fine because you have no way to run it anyways. No way to cook since your $2000 worth of lightweight batteries would be dead after 6 slices of toast through the inverter and you removed the simplest most reliable means of cooking in a camper (gas stove).
No fridge after a couple days once the batteries are dead, but that’s ok because you’ll be eating out. And don’t pack a bbq, that adds weight, lol.
And a messy stinky diesel heater so you can take a hot shower and not freeze to death. Even though you’re hungry.
Why not eliminate the kitchen table, benchs, cushions, and mattress? Couple camper chairs and mattress pads in stead would save another however many lbs.
Cabinets are heavy too. Gut all that stuff out and just toss everything into a few plastic totes. You won’t need near as much stuff since you can’t cook, your food is spoiled and the wife just left and took a bus back home where she can live with the amenities that you just tossed out the back door of the camper to save weight!
Lol
