Set up a good plan and have a good start, have a good ending at the end of this year. why don't we do it right now?

In 2012, i have made preparation for my work and life. I'll go for a travelling out of the province i live and work. When i told my thoughts to my friends, they all suggest me taking a camping tent, which would add much fun to my whole travelling. So i decide to buy on online for the April journey. Look forward to its coming......

I built a completely custom (from scratch) carbon fiber, hard side, pop-up camper onto my 2006 Nissan Titan about 1 year ago. I have been using it now ever since and it has been a dream. The whole thing weighs less than 700 lbs. and is supper insulated and quiet. I have been able to test it in the winter some too and it heats with just a small 3000 btu catalytic heater.

Here are a few pics of the completed project.......I think it came out ok.

They have really built a nice, light-weight, all aluminum, pop-up camper. I have heard from some other forums that owners of these campers are thrilled with their performance and durability. The article on the All Terrain Campers here is pretty good too and the video made me want to get out and do some exploring.

When it was all said and done, the thoughts were that each has its advantages and it really depends on what you plan to do.

Sportsmobile: Better for off road or extended secondary road trips with rough roads. modification ready, including bike racks, roof racks, hitches, and interior mods to meet your specific needs (like fly fishing). Four wheel drive, for snow and mud conditions. The cool factor is high on these too.

Sprinter Van: Better gas mileage. roomier and more plush inside. Great for sustained trips on primary or good secondary roads. Diesel option is very reliable.

Anybody else have a thought on these. My friend is a triathlete and wants to use it for events and races. I think the Sprinter Van is probably the best option.]]>
