I had been looking for a basic camper to remote camp in. I previously had a 26' bumper pull and it was okay but tough to bring toys or go into remote areas. A buddy sent me a link to a CL add and one thing lead to another. I drove several hours from home and as soon as I saw the camper I realized that the seller was less than forth-coming about the condition. The roof had a leak and the entire driver side of the roof had rotted away. Furthermore, he didn't have a way for me to test any of the electrical or gas accessories...even though I made that a condition of coming to look at it and he had agreed. He was really turning into the stereotypical CL seller...I was pretty disappointed with the lost time but I was already there. Might as well check the camper out. The canvas and the tub were in great shape and I thought I could salvage the roof. 45 minutes later a minimal amount of cash traded hands and the Tramper came home with me.
