[FC] FW: rampside camper

[Patten Del R Civ AFRL Det 8/PKMA]

  If you were closer and I had a rampside I sure would be Gary!!  We had one
of the campers here in town but when she tried to sell it, she got no takers
and they basically ripped it apart getting it off...we looked at buying both
from her but the wife thought it too small for me...I am a big guy they tell
me...anyway, my tent fits nicely in the back seat of the coupe!!

I have a Travaille camper topper. to get the top off I slid a couple of
2x4s underneath and 4 of us lifted it off. But the rest of it is still
inside, and has to be taken out.....then the ramp would have to be
re-installed.
All in all quite a project to get it on and off.........

Anybody interested in the camper? I'll never use it!

The Campside I used to own was actually built on the Rampside.  There is no
lifting it out, it is not one unit.  And it did take 4 guys to lift off the
aluminum topper part of it.  But that is only one brand of camper--others
could be different.
