    I mainly deal in period correct travel trailers (pre-65), but I Have had a few Class A and Class C motorhomes over the years. I may get something to pull the race car with, now that I am retired.

    If sleeping in the bed of your truck counts, then yes.

    I usually camp out of my vehicles during hunting trips, or in Colorado/New Mexico. After I buy a house and relocate I'll be buying a new small travel trailer, something small but with a bath/toilet. I've been watching the market and found 3 models I'm interested in, but I have to wait until the house deal is done before I can proceed.

    We did that a few times when we were much younger. At one time, I had a 64 Dodge 1 ton chassis that some company spliced a 24' camper onto.it was so ugly, it was kind of cool.

    Our kids used it while it was parked in the driveway, much more then we used it for family camping. At the time, my wife was a nurse and she had to work every other weekend. Camping on the weekend she was off turned out to cause too much stress. We tried. I sold the camper truck a couple years later, it really was a pretty nice unit.

    All of mine were Fleetwoods. I had a 24' Class C, a 34' Class A and I sort of inherited my FIL's 36' for a while. I might look at another Class C. I'm a Ford guy, but they have gone to that freaking 10 cylinder, so I dunno.

    Doesn't have to be. That looks like a serious rig.

    IMG_2835.jpeg I know where one of these is setting. It’s been in the same spot for 15 plus years . The owners son got hooked on meth and I’m betting it was used as a cook shack .
