Expedition Leader
I know, I have the attention span of a squirrel sometimes. I've tried a pickup bed camper, tent with cots and nothing has what I really want. With a wife and 4 kids, i need water, shelter, somewhere to stand, cook and sleep. All in one place. I also wanted something lightweight and easy to pull behind my Range Rover.
So after lots of searching on KSL.com. I picked up a little fixer upper Tent Trailer, circa 1981 Rockwood. I'm not sure how awesome it will be be. But for $200 it had what i needed most, a dry place, wheels, water capacity and CHEAP. $200. I didn't even haggle because it was approved by the wife.
So without further ado. I hauled it home behind my F350. I could barely see it in the mirrors. But it did just fine going freeway speeds.
Right now it needs a new top vent as its been broken for a long time. the roof has a little damage from it, and some of the canvas needs to be patched and sewn up.
It only has a sink and cook top. No heater, fridge or 12V battery. Storage is also limited, but I'll build a little roof rack for the top and put my Thule cargo carrier on it.
