Know a couple where the husband convinced the wife to take the RV on the yearly moose hunt explained as the guys are older now they need something more comfortable to rest in after the hunt. Well when he got back and the wife saw the state of the RV well lets just say that was the end of that.
ROFL. What is he stupid? How long has he been married?Quote:

This year, we plan to set up a supplemental tent with a woodstove to dry our clothing and leave our dirty gear.
I prefer camper vans because they are easier to park and drive, are more efficient, and if you do it right you can buy an empty cargo van or minimal DIY van conversion and slowly convert only what you actually need. Only converting and putting in money into quality parts that won't break and you know how they work in case they do. RVs are built with poor build quality, are shanty as hell. Completely obvious, and anywhere they're parked they're an eyesore and draw attention. Many many dispersed sites (free) out there have low clearance, and high clearance requirements, meaning you may have to dodge branches and go over rough terrain. The more adaptable you are, the more freedom you get in terms of where you can park. If you're fine, posting up 5 ft away from another person in an RV park then an RV is perfectly fine for what you want to do.
