We purchased this set up exactly one year ago, and have used it full-time, day in and day out, since. It was our home for the vast majority of 2016 and into 2017. We watched our one-year-old daughter grow from a crawling infant to a running toddler in this thing. It showed us the very best of this country, and of all the things that went wrong this year, the camper was not one of them.Some specifications:166x801,689 lbs, dryAluminum jack bracketsTwo 160-watt Zamp solar panelsDual deep-cycle AGM batteriesFull LED interior lighting, one LED external "porch" light110-liter, two-way refrigeratorForced-air propane furnace w/thermostatPropane hot-water heaterPropane stoveSink20 gallon water tankTwo 2.5-gallon propane tanksIndoor/outdoor showerRoof vent fanThermal packSilver spur interiorCasette toiletARB awning 2500StereoAluminum folding stepsMechanical jacksCooling memory foam gel mattress topperMost of those are factory options. I added the stereo, the second solar panel (replaced crappy factory crimp connectors with weather-tight MC4 connectors), folding steps, the mattress topper, the mechanical jacks, and the awning.There's a camper queen bed up top and a camper twin in the back. The rear dinette serves triple duty as dining room table, second bed, and shower. Plenty of storage under both rear benches and the upper bunk. Lots of cubbies here and there. It is exceptionally clean and well cared for, but does have the marks of real use. This thing did not sit on lawns and KOAs its whole life. There are some light pinstripes from ocotillos in Big Bend and low-pine branches in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and the Grand Canyon's North Rim. There are also two noticeable blemishes in the aluminum siding, one from a falling tree in Mount St. Hellens, and another from a light pole in Hollister, CA. You'll see them if you're looking, but you do have to look close. The camper needs nothing. It is fully functional. It will keep your beers frosty and your toes warm. It'll cook your dinners and wash your plates. It'll do it in some of the world's most remote and stunning locations. And it will do it with three other friends along for the ride. It has a functional, off-the-grid time of five days with two adults and a toddler, limited primarily by water. We weren't great about rationing, though. A single, determined individual could do 14 days in this thing pretty reasonably, regardless of weather. We've been in it at 16 degrees and at 97 degrees, all with a one-year old. There are no strange smells or stains. Feels new inside.We paid $32,572 for it one year ago. I have since added over $2,000 in additional necessaries. I'm asking $30,000. Truck included for $55,000.
