And the problem is???   If you have the coin for one (sounds like just a simple little issue) - and you're going to use it often enough - then why not?

The Exodus is a great unit.  I prefer the specs of the 14 but the 11 appeals for its size.

Yes, I will be cheaper! Have you priced one of these baby's?
I priced the 14 footer, with what extras I wanted it was close to $98k

Some great suggestions, now she's making a list of alternatives. I have to say the Exodus 11 is perfect for what we want and how we camp. I just can't get past paying close to what I paid for my first house....

The Vista RV also looks like it might be OK, seems a few like those, although the annexe is sail track and needs poles as well as the shower tent.... We are over poles and tentes and having to set up and pack up, but we don't want a big heavy caravan either.

I think it's great, the handbrake is the lack of cash without refinancing the house!

We can all have something to look forward to - in the future then - Just think, the longer you wait the more cash you can save and the cheaper the camper may become so you will be able to afford it 'one day' !   That's my theory with a lot of stuff really...
