i regret for trading my Snowriver TC

mdw60, I really feel your pain. All to often, try to encourage our spouse to enjoy camping. I find as my wife and I get older, the less she enjoys the camping. My point being, I finally hear her when she says set the camping stuff up to suit me, she still is usually not excited about camping. Sometimes yes, but usually not. Hopefully, your change was a decision both of you made, even if you think it was the wrong decision.

I too am an old man. I have a hardside TC. Even when my wife is with me, we have room for more "serious camping supplies". We actually have empty cabinets, and only have chairs in the extended cab. You might consider taking another look at your "serious camping supplies", could be they are just baggage. Perhaps downsize your "serious camping supplies" and upsize your living and comfort areas. I am not posting this to be critical, but just as a thought for you.

I remember years ago, I too had "serious camping supplies". Everything but a riding lawn mower. When I looked for someplace to store the mower, I decided to remove, not add, "serious camping supplies" every trip. It worked for me.
