First camper on a Toyota 4cyl - will not even mention how over weight we were on that one.
Then, had a Palomino pop-up on a number of trucks (Toyota, Plymouth Arrow, Ford Ranger, another Toyota). Left it on most of the time, fit in the garage and took many trips to the Black Hills, Yellowstone, and many of the lower 48 parks/scenic areas as well as shorter local camping/fishing trips.
Since '05 (retirement), have the Lance 815 on a Dodge 2500 and have been to all lower 48 states (and parks) and a 4 wk trip to Alaska. Cannot count the number of RV Parks/campgrounds we have stayed at, nor the number of Wal-Mart boondocks. Replaced the queen mattress with a king and we definitely prefer the TC to a motel.
Just starting the search for a new truck - figured 300,000 miles was enough.
