Its a problem. The old station wagons did the job. They could haul about

a pickup my recommendation would be a GM product. I talked with a insurance
man at a camp ground who was also camping. He said the other manufacturers
have tricky engines to repair in accidents and don't stand up to collisions
all that well. I own a suburban and a Toyota. The suburban is one tough

park a pickup in the garage or the neighborhood watch patrol will report your
violation of association rules. Disgusting but its true. With that bunch
I would go with a motor home and pull a toad. Watch the movie RV with Robin
Williams it will convince you the motorhome is the way to go with a family and its full of comedy situations we all experience camping. Of course they
probably won't let you park the motorhome on the driveway either so you will
have to rent a storage space or move to a farm.
Well that camping insurance man definitely blew some smoke from his campfire up your tailpipe!
