How many nights in 2013 did you use your TC?

[CAJW]

Can't find where to put up a poll on this board, but wondering the following:

1. How many nights in 2013 did you use your TC?
2. TC owned all of 2013? If not, how many days?
3. Employed F/T, P/T or retired?
4. Improvements scheduled for TC in 2014?


We've had our rig for 231 days in 2013, camped 48 nights for a usage percentage of 20.7%. Both DW and I are employed F/T, but feel the investment was worth it and plan on increasing the use in 2014.

Lessons learned: Should have got a TC years ago and factory mattresses last 47 nights, new memory foam replacement on order.

1. How many nights in 2013 did you use your TC?

Maybe 25? Not anywhere near enough.

TC owned all of 2013?
Yes
3. Employed F/T, P/T or retired?
We both work more than full time on the farm

4. Improvements scheduled for TC in 2014?

A new machine shed so we can get the camper out of the hay barn but keep it under a roof.

Not enough - it was less than 24 this year.

[hedgehopper]

18 nights total for three trips in 2013. Owned since 2004. DH retired and DW still working full time.

I'm at 76 nights, that's a little less than average per year usage.

well I guess I need to bump my nights out count one more night to 80. the mrs and I are taking the camper out tonight for new years eve. just her and I, no kids or dogs. sit around the fire and relax. daytime highs are mid 30's and lows mid 20's. perfect weather to hang around a campfire. we will contemplate what next year brings for us and our camper. already a 2 week vacation planned with other trips scheduled too.

1. How many nights in 2013 did you use your TC? Not Enough... but spent 2 weeks on the mainland of AK, and many day-trips with the kids on the Island with the quads.
2. TC owned all of 2013? If not, how many days? Owned all of 2013
3. Employed F/T, P/T or retired? Work full-time.... tooo much...
4. Improvements scheduled for TC in 2014? Seal off old fridge roof vent. Fix leaking front windows. Install side awning. I'm sure other things will come up, but that's it for now.

We have done 11 since we got our camper in September. Just got back from a 7 day trip to Lake Livingston SP. We were right on the lake...it was beautiful. Only camper was the only one at the place and had a lot of curious lookers inside and out.

[realter]

I'm ashamed to admit it, but I have more toes than the number of nights camped in TC. I've owned it for several years. I can't remember if I am retarded or retired, so must be old. Next year, hope always springs eternal!!!

1. We got just over 50 nights.
2. Same setup last three years.
3. Small business owner, more then full time work, with a daughter in school.
4. Likely no real big changes in the TC. (unless Arctic Fox brings out a side door model or we don't avoid the RV shows:) )

The question should be "how many nights did you sleep at home?" Answer 6six nights.
Happy Traveling
