But I cheat and buy the GOOD Beer! :)<br /><br />Don, Anon, and Paula; Working on it... but... the "scheme" keeps shifting on me :)<br /><br />Gaelyn; That is one of the things coloring my scheming <br /><br />Ted; a "Mature MDT" is the gentler of saying a "Well used Medium Duty Truck" and a Skoolie conversion is a "School Bus Conversion".<br /><br />Snack Master and Jan; We stick to pretty open areas so we maximize our Solar power, but I can't say a decent motorhome would have any trouble getting to any of the spots we've used. Even the couple up single lane logging roads. a 40 footer maybe :) Most of the "access" issues we can see would be in the Developed camps in between...<br /><br />So... we keep weighing all the possible options... :)Briannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205527982714514361.post-8752159669478683222011-08-04T18:55:52.806-06:002011-08-04T18:55:52.806-06:00I keep watching and hoping to learn from others...I keep watching and hoping to learn from others' working through the options. Since I already have the Jeep (in storage right now, so still pretty much new) I'm more and more leaning toward something small and cheap that the Wrangler can tow like the converted trailer you showed earlier or a Casita. After a few years (months, days) living that way I'll know more. Kinda like you guys are doing now.

I'm finding that a F-150 FX4 with Ecoboost engine and a 28" TT will accommodate a lot of gear and the truck will go almost anywhere a Jeep Wrangler will go - size of the truck being the limiting factor.Tednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205527982714514361.post-76431167342466958642011-08-03T21:56:48.956-06:002011-08-03T21:56:48.956-06:00We're at the same place - have a great fifth w...We're at the same place - have a great fifth wheel and a great truck. At the moment, I drive our Jeep everywhere we go because we really don't want to double-tow. Ideally, we would like a MH towing our Jeep, but that would limit the back country places we like to park. That has been made even clearer to us this summer in the Colorado high country. A MH wouldn't fit on some of the roads and in some of the camping spots we have been:( <br /><br />Will be curious to see what you come up with:)<br /><br />Snackmaster and JanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205527982714514361.post-37432943541526863472011-08-03T19:50:22.149-06:002011-08-03T19:50:22.149-06:00I think I've lived in almost every combination...I think I've lived in almost every combination there is, except a Toyhauler which just didn't appeal to me as they all see even flimsier than a regular RV.
