Looks quite nice.
How much do you think the camper weighs?
What is your TV?
It's 5 o'clock somewhere ... time for a :beer:

Sorry for the late reply Fiddlin'Billy! Yes , that was probably me. I was at Clifftop ( Appalachian String Band Festival) in Clifftop, WV for 9 days. I have camped there many years in a tent and the Bluebird qualified for "Luxury", in my opinion.

Homebrewer25, sorry so late responding.

I tow it with a Nissan Xterra. It seems a good match, although few of those West Virginia mountains are notable.

Not sure of the weight, I will let you know. My tow vehicle is 4580, getting it weighed all together on my next outing. I go to the cardboard recycling place near here, they weigh everyone as they enter and exit for free.

Hey Don!

Your camper looks awesome! I love the paint job. I love the shape of it too. I was picturing my camper much more monolithic but maybe I need to rethink that. I also like those big awning windows. Air flow is a must. Maybe I'll need to do something similar. I'm sure I'll end up referencing this thread often. Nice to meet ya and thanks!
:D
