Still towing? I'm 70 and only recently started--and only because SWMBO laid down the law and said she'd no longer participate in tent camping. Truth be told, I still prefer a tent, and camp solo that way as often as loading up a busload of stuff to pretend I'm at home when I'm not.

Have to admit, sometimes it's nice to have a stove and a shower, especially in crappy weather.

Looks like the youngsters aren't to much into Sunlines.

Our camper is a 1983 T-1350. We now only go to State Parks within 75 miles. This camper has been to Maine twice and down to WV many times. I used a 1989 Chevy Corsica 2.8 Liter V6 to pull it. 30 years later @ 214,000 miles we switched to a KIA Soul + with a 2 Liter engine that will pull the camper up a mountain. We live near Harrisburg, PA
