I'll take that bet! How much you wanna bet pard? :PROFSheriffHL:

Sir - I wish I could speak with the voice of experience but, circumstances have prevented me from using the Outfitter Apex 8 much yet this Wyoming spring. My sense is that the Outfitter is "more camper" than the FWC - more expensive, more heavy, more comfortable, more well equipped, more tall...

Will They Fit in AT Can Holders? Thank you Mr. CJ. I wonder if they will fit in the Adventure Trailer can holders? Best regards, Ed.

Cheaper than Dirt "NATO Fuel Can"? While we're on the subject, well sort of, has anyone used these el cheapo surplus cans: http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/ZBQ1410-51732-525.html ? The price is right... Best regards, Ed.

Yup, 2 good threads showing Outfitter truck campers at play in Utah going there: http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/21166782.cfm http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/21161414.cfm Best regards, ELN.

KC - thanks for the note. I'll bring it by sometime soon. Vegas was good. The NASCAR race was quite a spectacle. Nothing like 150,000 cheering rednecks (used endearingly) dropping $100 million into the local economy. I can now say that an Outfitter Apex 8 will easily withstand the downdraft...

Sourcing T-Fal Bivouac Cook Set Has anyone found a good source for this set? Google doesn't produce much for me. Thanks. ELN

Gentlemen - Thank you again for your replies to this post. I inspected and purchased the camper this last weekend (3/1/08). It's my first "RV". My initial impressions: Outfitter packs a lot of "stuff" into a small package. The Apex 8 is equipped with a thermostatically-controlled furnace, a...

Kevin - thanks for the gracious offer. Unfortunately, your trip is scheduled a few days earlier than my vacation. Bon voyage and please post a report. Best regards, Ed.

Thanks KC. All murders are challenging but, cold cases are special. I just ordered 3 guidebooks and a Utah atlas. It's back to Utah we go. I've done Lake Powell several times by boat in summers past. I'm thinking of some back road exploring this time. Best regards, Ed.

Let's just assume that: You live in Lander, WY. It's been a longish winter with much snow and some sub-zero temps. You have a new-to-you 2005 Outfitter Apex 8 mounted on a Ford F250 V10 crew cab pickup. You also own an ATV which you enjoy riding. It's time to warm up someplace scenic and...

Thank you! Thanks for the many informative replies. I made a deposit on a 2005 Apex 8 with solar panels, AC, dual 6 volt batteries, side awning, etc. Delivery/inspection to occur sometime in February. I'll keep you posted. Best regards, ELN.

Silversand - thank you for the most informative post. I'll keep your thoughts in mind while giving it the "once over". Best regards, ELN.

I received the 10 epidsode, 3 disc set of "Long Way Round" for a Christmas gift. It's an excellent way to spend a couple long Wyoming winter nights. :26_7_2: Best regards, ELN.

Thanks Chip I'd previously read that article and found it very informative. My truck is a stock '00 Ford F250 V10. I really like the concept of the Outfitter and hope that present or previous owners can comment on how it works "in the real world". Thanks again and best regards, ELN.

Greetings from the Big Empty - I'm very strongly considering the purchase of a used 2005 Outfitter Camper Apex 8. Here's the link to the 2008 version: http://www.outfittermfg.com/Campers/Apex/Apex_8/apex_8.htm. I would appreciate the comments of past and present Outfitter Camper owners...

We used the Alaskan for many years. The front door zipper finally failed. Cabelas gave me a full store credit for the original cost of the tent - long out of warranty. I replaced it with the Cabelas Outfitter XWT...

Yup. It's all relative I guess. "Back in the day", I used to hike across the Winds with a 75 lb. pound pack. Now, I can barely get "the necessities" into my Ford F250 Crew Cab. The older I get, the more comfort I want. Within reason, of course. :arabia: ELN
