Have a 24' Travel trailer. Unfortunately when I go camping, I have to take 2 vehicles. I might trade it in for cabover. I drive a 2000 F250 deisel and my wife pulls the boat with a 2005 Escalade.

I sleep where ever I pass outlaugh hyst On a good day in my 12' by 12' tent.
Between Flaming Gorge and Pyramid Lake, NV, my tent days snapped like the tent poles in the 40 mph gusts.

I've had those days, thats why I spent the extra $$$ and bought a tent that is rated for high winds. The use the same kind on the k2 expos.

I like to sleep in my boat on the water, but I will use a pop-up camper on the truck if the weather is too cold or rainy. I try not to use the camper very much because my gas mileage goes from poor to worst stomper
I fashion myself as a pretty good cook and used to put out some amazing meals when we tent camped. But know that I go places with power and have an oven, the skies the limit. Home made pie or cobbler with ice cream on a camping trip, are you kidding me? It doesn't get any better than that!

Cabover camper for me. I used to sleep in tents, but I can't go all night without a pee any more. Must be old age creeping up on me...
The camper mileage sucks, but towing the boat makes it worthwhile.

I used to have a Nomad 27' fifth wheel trailer. I towed the boat behind it. The Gorge saw that train pull in many times. I loved it but we sold it when we moved to Denver. That was a mistake!!!
Maybe not, you could probably buy a newer / nicer one now for 1/2 what you sold yours for a few years back.

If I camp I use a tent. I would like to get a small camper for my truck.
What size is your truck? 1500's are pretty much limited to light weight pop ups. 2500's - 3500's and you'll have a lot more flexibility.

As of not just a tent but i am looking for an old 3/4 toon and a beater camper to ward off the wind hey my thaught is new is nice but old is cheap and paid for in cash if i don't tent it with the family just tow the boat and crash out in the jeep.
