Any RV'ers out there
So my dad always had one sence I was little and anywhere we went for the most part we took it. I got my first lil pop up camper when I was bout 20 then when I got married @ the age of 27 the wife just wasnt satisfied with that one, So we purchaced our current 24' self contain. Its a pretty nice camper and was really all we wanted to afford @ the time and now were here again. We looking to buy our last RV. The one we have now requires us to turn the couch to a bed every night now that we have a child. So were looking @ a camper with bunks. Anyway now that she camps she hates motels although she wont camp without city water, electricity, and cable. But she loves going on trips and staying in campgrounds and I love camping in anyway. We really love it and was wondering if there are any PGL RV'ers in the world. ohh here is the one were currently looking @ you have to click the pics to make them bigger. http://rvforsaleguide.rvusa.com/rvin....asp?id=503804

as a kid i have MANY memories of going camping, i dont think ive ever camped out anywhere that had water or cable tho. a few years ago we were became 'all about' camping and bought all the gear and a big ass tent, 10 man, i think, but we have never actually gone out camping. the tent has only been pitched one time.
i think we screwed up buying such a big tent, its a lot of tent for just a night or two. we have recently been talking about buying a nice camper, our discussion ended when we couldnt decide whether we should buy a camper or a boat, or both, and in what order!?
thats a nice setup your looking at ronnie, your truck already setup to pull a 5th wheel? isnt that what those are called?

Thats a big camper. My wifes family has always camped. Her mom and dad have a 33 Jayco and here brother has a 34 jayco We are looking for one now as well. We are looking at a hybrid for our first. I didnt think I would like camping but now with kids I cant think of a better place to be with the little ones than in a campground.

I'm personally more of a tent camper, but I like the idea of having a trailer. That's a nice 5th wheel, Ronnie. My parents have a trailer, and they love it. Seems like every 2 or 3 years, they buy a bigger one, because they're always needing more room (they camp for about a week at a time usually). I'd say their current one is a little smaller than that one, and they're finally happy with it.
I hope you get exactly what you want!

yeah your right wolfpack, camping is great for kids because If your not in the mood to go to the pool or anything you can just let them ride there bikes or go to the arcade, one campground we stay at has there own channel when you hook up your cable and its a video camera of the arcade. So you can let your kid ride up there and still keep an eye on them. Name my current camper is a travel trailer so i'll have to get a 5th wheel hitch if I get this one. This camper is smaller than your father in law and brother in laws wolfpack its 25' as your familys is 32 and 33'.

I like tent camping but the truth of the matter is, if I tent camped i'd only go one or twice a year because you have to pack so much stuff it gets me out of the mood. With a camper you keep all your hygen item in the camper deotorant tooth past razors shaving cream ect ect. And all your bedding is already in there alll your towels are there, chairs, boogie boards{if your going to the beach} plates, silverware, canned goods , salt peper and so on, and you dont have to gather up cooler and buy ice because you have the fridge. So you end up going camping more because its not as much work to get where your going. But I do like to tent camp on the river or lake. We camp a lot of weekends in pigon forge TN which is just about an hour away for us. Theres lots to do there and there is a theme park called Dollywood and they have opened a water park called Splash country and we usualy buy season tickets so a weekend dont cost too much and its a lot of fun.

Yeah you dont have as much length behind you with a hybrid which is always better. another nice camper kinda like those is the outback that has the master bed pop out the back but its metal. Here is a random site it was the first thing I found. Now this one is a pretty long one but they make much shorter modles
Outback 26 RS
I really should have found a different pic , ha ha ha.

That looks like a nice camper! I couldn't camp like that though. I'm too used to the camping where you build your own shelter and get your own food in the woods lol

We are going to Myrtle Beach in Sept. and staying in a villa in the campground. It is a completly different beach trip in a campground than staying on the strip. Right now we dont have anything to pull one but I believe a truck is in my future
