69_Avion
Dec 30, 2014Explorer
Since I still use a 1969 Avion camper that has been in the family since new, I'm not looking for many changes in the next couple of decades.
When I rebuilt the Avion a couple of years ago, I went with LED lights, a CO monitor, Solar with MPPT controller, better TV/Video and radio. Other than that, the technology isn't much different.
I think the next generation of refrigerators will have high efficiency compressors that run off of batteries that are charged by solar.
I doubt if the campers that are built 10-20 years from now will be any better than the then close to 70 year old Avion.
It is coming up on 50 years old and it is better than when it was new. I think the fourth generation of the family will get to use it.
