Agree ^^^^^

It has been way to long for me to. There is a perfect site for it right on the river bank up here on Little River. Good fishin, swimming and all the wildlife you care to look at as well as natural beauty. It has been way to hot for me though. They have me on fibromyalgia medications that don't agree with heat or the sun. I am just waiting for a good week that i can come off the meds and a camping i will go !

LOL, you and me are in the same boat, i'm on chemo meds and barely make it around the yard! However the doc gave me 2 weeks off of meds and I felt good enough to take my Harley in for service. They found metal on its main magnetic plug and now i'll probably have to have a bud drive it home for me, it'll take too long to repair and i'll be back on meds.

Nice to have a pop-up camper - I use a truck tent, personally. Lacks the creature comforts of a pop-up, but, after all, it IS camping! BTW, FX-4 wheels are meant for black trucks! Nice setup!

Where ya headed? Ive been trying to get to cloudcroft all year but between bad weather and fire bans, havent done it. I only like to go camping if I can have a fire because I camp in the backwoods not at "sites"

i was going to get a truck tent. but at the last second, i got a leer100XL with options.

one thing i have to recommend... zodi dual burner camping shower.

on high output, it heated cold garden hose water in a 4gallon bucket to steaming warm in 5 minutes. and runs through that bucket in 5 minutes.

they have an replacement 12v water pump with aligator clips, but i'll install a DC plug on to that since i have a 3 plug 12v hub in the back of the canopy.
