Upgraded

This is what we upgraded from. We owned the skamper for 15 years, A lot of great memories.
We are so glad we got something bigger, and glad we ended up with our jayco 29bhs.

First, congratulations on your upgrade.

When you mentioned Skamper, it reminded me of a "configuration" I saw some years ago at a CG we were staying at.

I posted this picture then, so some have seen it before. We decided if we left on the same day, we would get on the road ahead of them.

I didn't know that truck campers were still made. Until I got my issue of Trailer Life and they did a review of one.... $60K!!!!

Wowza!!

They are popular with folks who want to tow their boats and still have a camper. They used to be not much more than a place to sleep above the ground, but now they have all the comforts built in.

Skamper...thanks for the memories. We cut our RVing teeth towing a Skamper popup back in the 1980-90s!

Nice upgrade!
