What did you have before your current RV?

[Crabman]

Let`s see them and hear about them, from tents to Class A`s.

[Crabman]

Our 2003 Coachmen. Only kept it 10 months, it was just too small for us. I do miss that rear garage though. Sold it in August, 2010 after we ordered the Jayco.

Currently we have a 2013 Eagle 284BHS

Our previous was a 2005 Jay Feather LGT 27P we sold when we upgraded May 2013.

2006 Palomino Elite 9149 Tent Trailer. Looking back I now realize what a pain it really was to setup. Now, just back in, level, hookup power, water and sewer and fold down the beds and the rest is up to the DW and daughter

We had a 38' SOB 5th wheel that was (believe it or not) too large for us.

We had a 30 foot 2001 Forrest River Wildwood. Developed roof leak, so we traded it in on our current Jayco. It was 11 yrs old and basically like new inside. The floor plan didn't really match our camping/living style though. Our new one does!

We had a 2002 coleman Utah grand touring edition popup. We moved up because of more kids and indoor plumbing

2007 Jayco 1007 pop up. BOught it new with ex wife. Got it in the divorce. Sold it before I remarried and then bought the Jayco 250 Special we have now.

1971 Sprite Musketeer. Cool 15 ft British Caravan that the family out grew.

90's model Prowler. We started out with a hand-me-down Winnie Class C. Sold the Prowler and went conventional (motels etc) until we couldn't stand it anymore. Got our 2013 Greyhawk last winter.

[Buster803]

Good move. Don't need any "baggage".

It isn't a bad little tent. Operative word being "little". My wife and I fit pretty much shoulder to shoulder in it; forget about bringing the dog along...

I backpacked my youth away, so I thought DW would like to do it too. She said she and her family used to go camping and she loved it, we went tail-gate camping when we dated and generally had fun. "Great!" I said. So I packed everything up and off we went to the backside of Enchanted rock to endure one of the worst thunderstorms I've ever camped through. And that was after DW got severely dehydrated and had heat exhaustion (I should've started force-feeding her my water earlier). We were all dry though, so I thought "okay, that was pretty bad, but we're okay and we're dry". The raccoon made off with my breakfast too, but whatever.... Anyway, so I convinced her to try again, no way it could always be that bad... Pedernales Falls was our next stop. I was watching her like a hawk, forcing her to drink lots of water, giving her mine, taking all the weight out of her pack, she STILL got heat exhaustion. AND we had another "storm of the century" that night! We were dry, we were okay, and she felt a little better after an emergency trip to DQ in Johnson City for a cold drink and a burger.

But, needless to say, she won't go backpacking with me anymore, and she said she wouldn't go camping with me at all unless she had a cool or warm place to put her head at night with a door she could lock. So here we are! AND we are literally 100% for thunderstorms when we take the trailer out! 4 for 4 and we just got our trailer in October!

I guess I'll just have to wait until we have children to get my backpack back on! We really should have known; I was looking back and in the years we dated, we got rained on nearly every time we went camping (tailgating mostly).

Nothing, unless a U.S. Army shelter half counts...

We had a 04, 30RKFS Sunnybrook Fifth wheel,
then a 96, 27RKFS Sunnybrook fifth wheel,
then a 76, 24' Winnebago class a,
then a 1995, 17' Prowler tag along.
then a Sears 9 x 12 tent.

[stjohneyre]

A short 18' toyhauler. I loved it, my wife not so much. All of our other camping history is listed at the very bottom.

[norty1]

I was storing a friends 27' Winnebago class A in my yard. We had a tent. My friend Told me to take it for a week to W. NC. After that trip, my wife would never tent camp again.

[DMRGMC]

Started with a 1970 something tent, on to a 1977 Bonaire pop up, back to a 1989 tent, next a 1986, 20' Prowler TT, big step up to a 2005 Jayco 26S TT, bigger jump to a 2008, 35' 5er, 313RKS, right now the 2012 321RLTS. The 2014 331 RETS looks good!

First we tent camped, just stuffing the Expedition full, then I gathered too much stuff and bought a small utility trailer and stuffed all the tents, coolers, stoves etc. inside.

Next we bought a 2005 Viking 2407 popup pulled with 2001 Suburban

Then a 2008 Wildwood 23 BHLE pulled with 2005 Suburban

Now we have a 2012 StarCraft 297 BHS pulled with 2011 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins
