    Good luck with that Nukeman. I have one (not about to sell it) and love it.

    Have you looked on Ebay?

    Yaa I look on there everyday but not a whole lot of selection in the price range I'm looking at plus those idiots on ebay take something that should sell reasonably and bid the hell out of it, also i like to look at the items to make sure there isn't anything hidden. you can only see so much i a picture if yaa know what I mean...

    Well I was lucky, found one locally at an RV dealer. He was selling it on consignment for a friend. The camper had only been used 3 times, it was practically brand new.

    Those are hard to come by because when the dealer gets ahold of them they really raise the price!!! I went int a dealer by me and they had JUNK and I mean JUNK and wanted a premium for it. My wife and I just shook our heads and left and said good luck gettin that price for that....

    Yup, I know what you mean. I probably looked at dozen of campers before I ran across that one. One I looked at was owned by hyppies, it was panted with flowers and rainbows.

    stay away from auctions!......when the kids were younger we decided we wanted a pop-up.....then one day I went to an auction and there was a motor home for sale.....it ran good, sort of dirty......somebody opened the bid at $3000, I raised it to $3250.....and.....total silence.....

    had to call the wife and say.....I need you to pick up the car, I just bought a motor home.....again, total silence.....

    in the end it worked out pretty well.....we used it for about eight years and sold it for $2400

    Check your local Criagslist? I found out we can rent them (trailers, boats, etc) from work. Hard to beat $40/night for a pop-up, or $80 for a ~20ft trailer, only the days I need it vs. Buying something. Although I REALLY want a trailer...and a boat...
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
