Hi Dave,
DD> I looked up Grey Wolf (thank you Bing) and there's quite a range.
DD> Which model did you get? Looking at the listed hitch weights I can
RH> Grey Wolf, Limited. Beyond that I don't know of any other name but if
RH> you look for specs like dual axle, walk around bed, dry bath (on back
RH> end, bed is on towing end), no slide out, 3 burner stove, oven, etc you

DD> As I said "there's quite a range". Levaing off the "tip out" there's
DD> still a *LOT* to choose from. Oh, well. It was only a cursory
DD> interest. I'm not planning to rush right out and buy one. My favourite
DD> campers are Motel 6 and/or Super 8.
We've done that route but it gets pricey when doing major trips. What
keyed off the whole camper thing was that several years ago we wanted to
go out west to see our girls/grandkids but Steve didn't want to fly.
Rachel said "why not get a camper and go glamping across the country?"
Steve latched on to the first part of the question, after research and a
not so nice experience, we settled on the R-Pod. We've seen a lot more
of the country since, and more to come.
DD> If I need a cramper I can always borrow my broter's 5th wheel and
tow DD> vehicle. Or the Winnebago motor home .... but he says it's
getting to DD> be a bit "creaky".
The R-Pod was getting a bit creaky too. It made 5 trips cross country, 4
to VT for mission trips, several trips to NYS and FL for family visits,
don't remember how many small (local-ish) ones................
One thing Steve found out about while reading the R-Pod forum was that
people liked to bake cinnamon rolls in the combo microwave/convection
oven. We've baked them several times in that. We also made an apple
crisp, but that was on an oven that sat on top of a camp stove. That was
harder to regulate the temperature on, don't have to worry about it now
since the new camper has a proper oven.
