Motorhomes and trailors are nice it is just impossible to get them in alot of places I like to camp. I may break down and get one some day. I used to camp a couple miles from the truck. As I get older I keep camping closer to the truck. Nowadays I may get a couple hundred feet away but its still far enough I am away from the crowd.

I like the pop up because it gives you the tent feel, good in a down pour....however as i age the setting up part has became a pain..

I started canping many years ago with a tent ,went to a topper on a pickup,then to a slide camper,to a 35' 5th wheel trailer.The 2 slide in campers are what I lile the best.The only draw back was that you had to unhoke everything if you needed to go somewhere.
Now I'm back in a tent.Heck I load up all the camping stuff in the BII,the family and off we go,you can wind up in some realy off the beanten path with that set up.
Darn now I went to go camping.

My favorite spot is the Chattahochee national forest. You have the clear cold rivers and streams, the mountains, trout, waterfalls and isolation if your willing to throw on a backpack. They do have improved camping areas (fee based) but no electricity hookups. They are sorta crowded near holidays. Improved just means you have a flat space to pull your trailor, a fire ring, picnic table, lantern stand and a chemical flush outhouse nearby. Their is something there for everyone to enjoy unless you just have to have electricity, internet, a pool, and running water. If that is your kind of camping I suggest you look into a campground in the KOA chain.
