I've wanted one for years.
I thought about it, talked about it, but my wife flat out refuses to travel, or even sleep in a RV, camper trailer or tent and I just can't see spending a lot of money for something that only I would get any use or enjoy.


Over the years I've owned three enclosed trailers and a few flatbed trailers and we've used them quite a bit to transport our bikes.


I usually drive to a predetermined location and my wife flies and meets me there and we use a "hub" location to leave the rig and tour from there.
This maximizes my wife's vacation time and we get to see and go to places that we just couldn't do if we had to ride our bikes to and from these locations.


RV'ing does offer some good opportunities to meet people and to socialize, but when you consider the costs of purchasing and maintaining them, plus the parking fees and the fuel costs, they're fairly expensive.
Also, my wife states that she will NOT be cooking OR cleaning her "room" while she's supposed to be on vacation!!

I'm getting anxious to get back to "camping"!

Here is my setup Lance Camper has slide out and plenty of room for us and dog, trailer has my '14 limited tool box in the front and room for extra camping gear. We took this combo to Oregon last year and spent 1 month in it traveling all over and were very comfy.
