Only camped in tents and pop-ups before retirement . My kids wanted to buy a rig for me to explore the U.S A. The more research we did and the more shows and rigs we walked and the more we talked to other rv' ers, we realized that to be happy west of the Mississippi we needed a DP. I was freaked at what they wanted to buy and how much they were willing to spend. I told my oldest I would be elated with a pop- up towed by my civic.She quickly let me know that her daddy was not going to be living in anything too small to hang pictures on the walls. I then tried to move the conversation toward truck campers ( I'm a one step two step kinda guy ) . NOT. Then TT's. nope. 5vers look awesome. Okay, then I got a maybe. Then no. I think they are planning THEIR future RV, not mine ;) . Ended up with an '06 34' Bounder . At first blush, appears awesome, but of course time will tell. I just want to get on the road. I don't care how!
