Good to hear from you Bob. At least there are still a couple of us '04 models still kicking around. '04 Outfitter Apex 8's and '04 models here on RV Net.
We will leave on the 15th on a ~6800 mile PNW trip which will include your state of Washington, Vancouver Island, BC, and AB, before re-entering the "states" and heading toward home. The Outfitter rocks on trips like this.

Don't let "age" make your decisions for you. I will be 76 on the 14th and will leave on a ~7K mile trip on the 15th.
Yes, compromises have to be made, but if you upgrade your F150, please go to an F250 (gas) no matter which camper you decide on.

For ten years we had a Phoenix popup on a Tundra and loved it. It handled like a dream.
So why did we change to a hardside? Four reasons: (1) We wanted a bathroom. (2) We wanted a freezer. (3) Popping and dropping the top was getting to be a hassle. (It was muscle powered.) (4) Getting out of bed in the middle of the night was becoming a challenge. (We were both over 65 when we switched.)
Yes, the popup had more problems with condensation in cold weather. But we could have lived with that.
Now that we have a hardside, we would not want to return to the popup. But we had many happy years in the popup. And it was perfectly fine on a SRW. For the Northern Lite we have now, we prefer a DRW for stability.

What is that? is that what Alaskan uses with the 4 posts in the living area?
