We used our 2003 Itasca Spirit off-road in AZ. Tried in CO but it was much rougher and too many camping even far from developed campgrounds. We had pretty high clearance and had 22 ft of RV to get around single lane mountain roads and across desert roads to the edge of wilderness areas. It was wonderful. But camping was much less popular in AZ than CO. A truck camper will get you further than most RV’s though there are 4wd retrofits.
There we go!
That’s more the spirit of the RV I’m looking for. Something like 25-30ft.
Do people ever successfully beef up the clearance a little on these?
I have a 2wd truck camper now and I got into everywhere this summer. Crested Butte (that was hard), Divide Colorado disbursed camping, some crazy 1 lane road up behind the mansions in Aspen, another crazy 1 lane road going down to the river in Buena Vista. It was fantastic. But my truck and camper are kind
of getting tired. They are also just not very nice inside (arctic Fox) and I want to be able to put a motorcycle cycle rack on the back for a small enduro to go to town on.
