Great rig. I am now more than ever open to getting in this and traveling but it is just a bit over where I would need to be. Hope it goes to a Expo member to get used for what it was built for. Good luck with the sale Dave.

I still like the raffle idea somebody had when you considered selling it last time

Did you keep the AC, microwave, and mounting accessories? If so, would they go with the truck?

Thanks,

Jim

Jim,

I kept the A/C and m/w and the associated mounting brackets. I would be willing to reinstall the A/C if someone wanted that as part of the deal.

Thanks for the interest,
dave

I'll be in the market for something exactly like this in about 9 months. If this is still available (fingers crossed) We'll make a deal. More likely, I'll build one extremely similar. It's a perfect step up from my ATC now that I've got kid number 2 on the way. I like that, with no slides, you can pull over to make lunch or use the restroom easily. Nothing to popup if it's raining. Just jump in and get warm and dry.

@Bayou Boy - truck is available. Going to give it a bath tomorrow, first time home since last trip. If you want to discuss the truck and options call me in Mountain Daylight time 303.319.6277

New pics showing spare tire carrier and current truck. The hand crank winch will lift and lower spare tire with ease.

Did you have a choice of how much insulation to put in the camper walls at Northstar?

 

[dtruzinski]

@garybo, Rex at Northstar assured me that they put they fill the air gap on the walls with insulation. I have used the camper at 5 degrees F and it performed flawlessly.
