Re: Weight of 2009 S &S montana avalanche 992
Positive about the year. S&S is still in business, though doing a contract for the gov't and making fewer campers for a while. We understand their units are high quality, but relatively heavy. I thought the avalanche got a bit lighter though than previous versions. It doesn't have the signatute bubble windows. In fact no forward window in the cabover. Will definitely scope out roof and leaks.191Views0likes0CommentsRe: Old folks in TC?
The reason for not taking a travel trailer on the ferry system is cost. The biggest reason for wanting a truck camper is access to triple the camp sites here in Alaska though. We are still considering keeping the travel trailer for some camping. But I have never seen any of our national parks (except Denali) and dream of it. We would likely take the ferry once so that I can see more of the lower part of our great state. Storing a camper in the lower 48 for months at a time isn't in the mix. We LIVE here and don' intend to become snowbirds.544Views0likes0Comments- 545Views0likes0Comments
Old folks in TC?
We have a TT, and love it. However, we live in Alaska and hate campgrounds and parking lot camping. Spots here are almost all dry camping. Additionally, we want to take the ferry with a camper and see some more of America. A TT makes that too expensive. Onto my question. We are in our mid 50's, and I (female) am not in great shape. I have osteo arthritis everywhere including my spine. Is a TC a ridiculous choice? And NO, I do not want to sleep on the dinette.5.9KViews0likes28Comments
