Sad to say but we're selling our 2011 Livin Lite QuickSilver 8.1 pop up camper trailer. Due to my wife's work schedule and the baby, we just don't get a chance to use it. I ordered it in 2010 two weeks before we found out my wife was pregnant. We only used it 3 times and has less than 2,000 miles on it. Some quick facts: All aluminum construction so no wood or wood products to rot and no steel to rust. Comes with Interstate deep cycle battery and box, awning, privacy curtain, aluminum wheels, spare mounted under the camper, 1 queen size and 1 single size bunk. Weighs just 865 pounds (1500 GVWR). I'm able to tow it with my 4-cylinder Honda Accord. Dinette set can be converted to another bed that can sleep 2 more. Here's the link to my Craigslist ad: http://cnj.craigslist.org/lehi.....39122.html
In the ad it says price is firm but it can be negotiated with Canvas Campers members.
Don't do It! I'm not in your situation, but all I can say is we bought our first pup when DW1 was 8 months old. I remember the first outing with DW2 at 6 mos old in may of '10. Kids love camping and it's a great bonding experience for you. As for your wife's schedule you can't change that, but you can take the baby and have a trip for the two of you. Just simplify and maybe stay closer to home, then your wife can come from work. Just a thought.
Mike,
I hear ya and I've been debating over it for a while now. We actually attended a meet at Lake Raystown last year with our then 8.5-month old son and we really enjoyed it. I thought about just camping with our 17-month old without my wife but she wasn't receptive to that idea and I really don't blame her. Don't get me wrong, we're not giving up camping entirely. We're hoping my wife's work schedule will lighten up in a couple of years and then we'll get another one. With our current camper still being relatively new I figure I can still get a decent price for it since the Livin Lite campers tend to hold their value quite well. If it just let it sit there then it will just depreciate in value. In a few years I can pick up a used one for much less.
