- sonuvabugExplorerWe have two ... the one in our signature and the one we dream of. lol
- Xpd77ExplorerI also own an AF 811. We are getting ready to by a 35 foot TT. Most of the camping we do is in campgrounds and we need more room for us and the kids. I still want to keep the AF or possibly downsize to a Northstar pop up TC for trips for myself and a friend in the mountains out west.
- _DJ_1Explorer IIWe have the 2 in our sig. TC for me for off road or pulling the boat. TT when DW goes as she is too claustrophobic for the TC. We went with bumper pull to keep the truck bed free for toys/etc. If I ever strike it rich I'd permanently mount a Four Wheel Camper on this truck and buy a diesel for touring with TT.

And that's exactly why I am thinking about another RV.
My AF811 and man-cave trailer work very well for my dual sport motorcycle trips. I have revisited the toy hauler idea, but axed it because the TC and trailer works so much better for a single person. Any toy hauler is going to be overkill.
I'm wanting to do other trips, with no off-road toys, where I get off the beaten path, or park and set up a base camp and go explore. This idea has been with me for about a year. One example of the "base camp" scenario, which is the easiest to describe is going to Yellowstone... set up camp, then unhook and tour the park.
Doable with the TC? Yes, but breaking camp every day and driving the land yacht all over the park would get old.
The other idea: getting back off the beaten path on Forest Service roads with another truck I have as a tow rig.
I'm thinking small travel trailer.
I've looked at the Nash 18L (they only exist in the used market, and are very hard to find) and the Nash 17K.
I'm now thinking smaller and lighter than those, maybe a single axle lightweight.- towproExplorerMy wolf creek is our escape pod we use to get away,plus we have a 30 open range 5er we set in a 4 spot private campground my brother and I own.
- 54sudsExplorer3 Bigfoots ,one being rebuilt, one set up for extreme cold and one for everyday use, this one is now having more cold weather mods added.
- gboppExplorerWe just own one. But, if we win the lottery, I'd have a collection of Vintage RV's.
- HalmfamilyExplorerCurrently own a 42' fifth wheel in sig but I'm looking for a smaller 16' or so trailer for when I want just me time. Plan on making it so I can pull it on fire roads in the Talladega National Forest. Would love to have a TC but I have a 100 gallon aux tank in my truck bed.
- byronljExplorerSee signature below. We snowbird in the fifth wheel during the winter and camp in the Fox all year long.
Dave - Shadow57ExplorerWE have the 2 in the signature below. My husband wanted to sell the horse trailer and pull with the motor home but it is only rated for 5,000# and I haul 2 horses. So until we decide to upgrade MH we are keeping both. He wasn't real happy I told him after he cleaned it up to sell. It is nice and clean. Sorry didn't realize it was a truck camper question haven't had one of those for a long time.
