A few years back .... we had a 24' Eagle Travel Trailer. We were sitting under the awning, on a drizzling Labor day Saturday, we were discussing about how little we use the inside of the trailer ....just to sleep literally. Why pull something that u rarely use, so went home, found a StarCraft Ar-One Hybrid for sale at a local dealer and bought it, brought it home and within one week, had my Eagle sold. Problem with the AR-One, as great a trailer as it is, the pull - out bunk end was too short, again, that's all we used it for was to sleep. Well, when we discovered jayco had jumped onto the A-Frame bandwagon, I began to search the net for one, and yes, very hard to find ..... had to go 4 hours to get one. Maybe dealers don't stock because of price, not sure. It's small, easy to tow, quite comfortable inside, and this winter it will be nice n cozy in the garage. We too are bikers and hikers, not sure I'd call ourselves hard-core though. We virtually only use it for sleeping .... we have even stopped bringing a TV with us. I like the Coleman Stove thing .... funny, we were selling off lots of stuff from my parent's house this summer because they moved into a retirement home. The one item I staked claim on was the Coleman Lantern ....that uses the Coleman fuel, not the propane tank type. Took it last weekend with us.... the sound of it burning brought back some great memories of my dad hanging it in a tree, so it would light up the entire site....and the sound it made. That's what camping is all about .... memories, not the size of your unit! (lol)
