One of the things I liked the
most after looking at Adventurer Truck Campers was the powered jacks. My wife
fell in love with the luxury of the things, and to be sure, there is a lot to
like. It is so nice inside that while we were on the dealers lot, the wife told
me that she wouldn't have a problem letting her mother stay in their when she
came to visit. (I wonder if I could park the camper on the outskirts of town
when mother in law comes to town. I would stay in the thing to avoid her!)
All the gee-gaws and foo-foo are
all well and good I suppose. When we go camping, even the wife spends more time
outside than in, so I never thought it had to be too nice. (At least, not nice
enough to make mother in law comfortable.) It might be nice to have an LCD TV
to watch a ball game if the fish aren't biting. Not that we could get reception
where we usually park. I have talked to people who have paid for cable service
while they stay in am “improved campground”. Improved over what? That is what I
would like to know. If you need cable TV to keep yourself or your brats happy
while you are camping, you are probably better off staying home.
The Camper we are shopping for
now will be the third that we have owned since we've been married, and the little
woman is excited at the prospect of owning a brand new rig, and the guys
selling the Adventurer Truck Campers have put on the best show at this point,
both on the lot and at the sportsman show. There is no denying that it is a
well put together unit. The fiberglass skin and aluminum frame feel like you
could drop it off a cliff and then move right back in.
The first truck camper we owned
I bought while we were dating. She let me know in no uncertain terms that she
enjoyed camping, but that a married woman was not going to sleep on the ground.
That first rig was a good match for the old rattle trap pickup I was driving in
college, and we had a lot of fun with it, but I shudder to think how many
pounds of air freshener she used before our first trip. The next camper was
bigger so that there was room for the kids, but it was an older, bare bones
affair.
Funny, the kids don't camp with
us much any more, but we are looking at an even bigger camper. Getting a new
Adventurer Truck Camper will be fun, I'll admit. But I am still happiest that
the new rig will be the first time I have had power jacks to lower the landing
gear. No more fooling with manual jacks in the dark when I am setting up camp! Visit website to check all latest new and used truck campers at Scatt Recreation
