Got a new Camper!!!
Well I picked it up this afternoon. It's a Starcraft Travel Star Sport 18RB. The trailer has two flip out beds and a full bathroom. It only weighs 2600 lbs. We're taking it to Stone Mountain this weekend to break it in. Morris Mountain will be her maiden trail ride in 2 weeks with the GATrailriders. I can't wait.
I was trying to decide between this and Fleetwood's Evolution 3 off road pop up, but I really didn't want to hastle with lifting it just to get in. I was concearned about the wind drag of a hybrid camper, but my test pull convinced me, it would pull fine. I still have 4.10 gears with 37's, and cruise right down the road. I will be getting gears next month though and a trans cooler next week.

RotorHead, thats a great looking trailer, kinda what I would like to move up to. I have a tent trailer right know that is great, but its kind of a duct tape special if you know what I mean. I am curious about the weight, you said it pulled fine on your test drive, how do you think it will be once its loaded up with gear? I try to keep things light, but once I start loading the gear, things add up quick. Post up after the trip, enjoy your maiden voyage!
