Well the wife an I have finally pulled the trigger and bought a new RV a truck camper my third over the last 35 years or so. We have a 2003 25ft Nomad travel trailer but it is really to much RV for both of us. The hook-up and towing length would have been fine 20 years ago or so but getting to old and with my medical problems it just too difficult. So next week we pick up our new 2015 Palomino SS-550 camper. It will be cozy, code word for small but I think we can make it do. It has electric lift for the roof and a AC that is being installed that is why we wait till next week. It has a 3- way fridge and 2 burner stove no oven but we have a small microwave that will fit an a outside shower + hot water. The fresh water tank only holds 16 gallons so not a lot to waste. Queen size bed on the over cab and a dinette that makes into a single so sleeps 3 . It is about the size of one I used back in the 1980's so the two of us can make do. Looking forward to going to some campgrounds and stuff we did when the kids were younger. Wish I had more pictures of those times but I don't think we ever took any, will take some this time. Its nice having a camera on your phone. The real excitement is going camping with our grandchild. Hope the truck gets descent gas mileage with the Camper hoping for 14 mpg on the freeways but will see.
