We have a 2000 Coleman Mesa and are going to Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Any
recommendations for clean, safe facilities nearby? Thanks to all, and have a
great camping year!

Just got back from a trip to central Florida from Southern
New England. I've been making this trip at least once a
year for the last 15 years. Its taking me longer and longer
each year. This year it took me about 25 hours. On the way

Hey all-
 I'm still researching for my eventual pop-up trailer purchase, and
while I think I've figured out how most of the systems work, I'm still
coming up short on a couple of areas.

on my recent trip, i saw people who have a smaller car like mine, Dodge
Neon, pulling a trailer. I was told there is a way to hitch up a
trailer putting the hitch underneath the bumper or something?????
anyone know how to pull a pop up with out a trailer hitch?

I'm new to this news group and to pop up trailers.  I just purchased a 1986
Bonair BA700.  It is in great condition and requires no work to go camping.
I wanted to get some basic insurance for this trailer, but my insurance

and Chalet models.  Would appreciate any help or opinions on the pros/cons
of each type or any other information to help make a choice.
TIA for any assistance.........

I might be buying this trailer used.  Looks to be in decent shape.  It
will be my first tent trailer.  What I want to know is how much weight
can the beds hold?  Can 2 grown adults sleep on one with no problems?
Is there is a weight limit?  I tried looking for an owners manual, but

If your rig gets 6-8 mpg ,  will the gas prices force you to take much
shorter trips or, change your plans ?

I bought a new tow vehicle, hooked up the pop-up for the first time
last weekend and the trailer does not sit level like it did with the
old tow vehicle.
Beside the butt of the pop-up very low to the ground, how dangerous is

What's the most extravagant thing you've bought for your RV lately?

Went to the RV show in Phoenix this weekend and saw that Fleetwood has
introduced a new entry into the "Off-road" pop-up arena: The 2005
Evolution.

thanks to everyone who helped out with my questions about the Coleman
camper.
here's the link to the Auction I won,  I went down today, inspected it and
picked it up :)

I just procured the rolling chassis of a 9 foot pop-up trailer that I intend
to build into a utility trailer of some kind.
My question surrounds the hubs - I'm not entirely familiar with bearings - I
pulled the axle out and removed the hubs.  The bearings /look/ ok, and when

Howdy folks,
I used to frequent ARVPUT a couple of years ago (before I lost my camper
in my divorce).  I've been getting the itch again and wanted to move up
to a hybrid. The old pop-up is too much of a pain to set up and I really

Ok, this might be somewhat off-topic, but my wife and I saw this beast
when we were in Utah last summer.  It's a gigantic red bus, looks like
it has three levels of bunks in the back and a bunch of seating in the
front.  It was loaded with German tourists:
