XP Camper

[The Adam Blaster]

Getting your wife on board is 90% of the battle.
And the XP can just be parked in your driveway/garage when you're using the truck for daily driver duties.
If you had a nice high ceiling in your garage you could make a lift/hoist system to pull it off the truck and store it up and out of the way near the ceiling. As light as it is, it wouldn't be that hard.

Totally. It's the only reason i was able to once again have a Toyota 4x4 in the driveway. But this time around i told her that though the new rig can be her DD, when we go on adventures the time behind the wheel will be more evenly split. She's a great driver on and off road, and once she's behind the wheel i nearly have to beg to swap out even after 4 hours or more! So this time i layed down the rule that ~1.5 hours we will swap. Most of our trips take us about 3 hours one way to our camp spot : )

Cheers,
Thom

I will give you a much better deal if you buy 2, only $19,999 !

I am having trouble getting Paypal to charge in Canadian dollars. The actual price is shown just above the $10,000 Paypal amount. I hope to have this fixed soon.
Cheers

That's just due to the predicted future exchange between US and Canadian dollars, as the Canadian prices listed are reasonable.

Congratulations Mark(s)!

This seems to be a good evolution for you. I remeber you telling me about this soon to be built camper a few years ago. I am glad you are still involved. Hopefully some day I can replace the old Alaskan with one.
