That'd be nice. I don't pull my camper enough to really worry about it. If I didn't have the 2" leveling blocks on the front it wouldn't look like that.

Well mine aint anything to look at at the moment since it is next in line for a paint job, but it's paid for. And, it does everything I need it to do. I load the dirt toys or Jeep in the back and we go. I got reservations in two weeks to Mill Creek on Sam Rayburn and I can't wait.

I paid for all my stuff, so I don't owe anything. But I don't have all the toy's yet. I gotta save a little more. I just opened a new buisness, so it should be soon.


Oh, and not being picky on whether it's new or not. Just good shape, helps.

My set up weighs 22,000 lbs combined and loaded. And I get 10 MPG.

That sure looks nice. I've never heard of Avion. I notice you only have one ac unit. Is that enough for you there in AZ?

Avion is a Fleetwood product. It was meant to go from rv park to rv park. Not to much off roading. Fleetwood quite making it I think in 95 when mine was made.

It's a real nice rig, and put together well, it is a four season coach so it is insulated well and made for below freezing temps (not that it see's much of that just hunting).

As for the one A/C. It does ok. It's a 14,000 BTU unit. But I can't go in it at the middle of the day and expect great miracles.

The only draw back is that it is heavy. But that's ok, I'm not in any race when I'm towing. (unless DITD 08 has a pulling class)

I got a buddy with an Avion like yours. Your's is in far better shape than his though since he's been using his to live in since hurricane Rita tore up his house. And yeah, they are real heavy.

Well, I don't know if I'd go that far, But Thanks. It's nice and roomy inside. I took out the factory Lazy Boy's and put them in my house. In there location I put in a couch that lays into a bed.

It pulls real nice, and the tire's are the same as my truck, so I always have 2 spares. Which came in handy when I had to change the left side tires while coming home from hunting. Which sucked cause it was snowing and colder then crap.

Nothing wrong with that. I camped in my Mom's 85 22' Terry until five years ago. I must be a little slow. Where is U.P.?
