    I always did like the concept of a pop-up camper.......

      Same here. Sometimes can be a bit tedious, but the benefits far outweigh any negatives. Certainly can’t beat it for ease of towing and versatility with camping spots. Don’t need much!!
      Cheers and hope your summer starts well.

    That's cool to see, I never seen the process of setting up a pop up camper. That camper has served you well over the years, still looks great. Thanks for sharing!

      Thanks. Amazing how much there is to a small little camper like this. Has opened up a world of travel and camping and fishing adventures. Keep thinking I’m gonna buy a larger, hard-sided camper but always have too much fun in this thing.
      Cheers and good luck ahead. Keep catching!

      Sounds familiar. We go to the RV shows every winter and fantasize about going with a fifth wheel or TT . Most are extremely overpriced and the quality just isn't there anymore even on the high end brands. Friend bought a new Airstream in 22 and it's spent several months in the shop and still isn't right. He looked at trading it in last fall but the dealer he bought it from only offered half of what he paid for it 18 months prior on another Airstream.

    Good stuff. Love my 20 year old Coleman Utah pop up. Perfect for 2 to 4 adults and we've had as many as 8 with the grandkids.. We've traveled the entire East Coast from Florida to Nova Scotia. Have thought about replacing it almost every year but for too many reasons to list its never made sense. It's great for campgrounds with electric in the summer and winter for the climate control and for boondocking in the cooler months. We added a Jackery 1000 to extend the boondocking trips. I have two friends that are on their 3rd and 4th campers respectively that have had nothing but problems during that same 20 year period and both are in for over100K at this point. In 2003 we paid 10K and have probably spent less than 1000 on maintenance and upgrades. Most expensive was upgrading the king sized mattresses with custom mattresses that give more support and are able to still slide under the roof when closed up. We'll worth the price

      Loved that message!! Could share notes on this pop-up camping for hours. Love it. Folks who never experience it are missing out.
      I’m also going to look into that Jackery 1000 - I researched a while back, but didn’t follow through. Curious if you have any more details on what all it accomplishes!??
      Just set up at a beautiful site in South Louisiana. Time to hit the French Quarter and then a few days of fishing. Amen.
      Thanks for the message!
      Happy camping!

    How long does it all take to set up?

    • @ThePentUpAngler

      Basic set up only takes about 25 to 30 minutes max.
      I add a few touches with the insulation and the big ice chest and adjust the kayak in the bed of the truck. 100% done easily in 45 minutes and I get the AC running as soon as possible to keep the inside setup cool.
      Some days better than others, but overall it’s not too bad and can actually be fun.
      Sure is awesome once all set up. So much more space than most people expect. I love it.
      Cheers!
