Entered the Pop-Top World
« on: May 14, 2013, 04:49:55 PM »
The first time I took my missus camping we slept in the back of the car...'I won't camp again until we get a tent' she says....so I got a tent....'I won't camp again until we get a Camper-Trailer' she says....so I got a Camper Trailer....'I won't camp again until we get a Pop-top' which leads me to now...just purchased a Jayco 2005 Hawk Offroad and itching to get it set-up noice for some big runs with the family....Love this Forum and look forward to getting amongst it!!!

Welcome Wallie.  What are you going to tell your wife when she says "I'm won't camp again until we get a 32' fifth wheeler"?

Happy camping

Most of us have been through this..

But now if mine says holiday, it has to be in the tent cos i lost all my sanity buying new campers to keep her happy..

Now i am building my own.. Hahahha ha

Have fun
