Hay mark, Did you check out Delmarva Rv in Milford? They have a new 5th wheel that has a bunk house and 1/2 bath in the front and a master bedroom in the back.It is made by cochman....Have fun and don't worry about your truck pulling it.I'm sure you have more than enough to get the job done!!!! Maybe you will be setup in time to go on easter weekend with us....

Stv1968, where did you buy your camper? Do they have a web site or something I could check out?

Mark
I bought mine in Danville, VA. Their Web site is rvoutletusa1.com. I think they have really good deals on their RV's. It's quite a drive, but by comparison to more local dealers I believe I save about 5 grand by going there.

They primarily sell Forest River. You can check out the floor plans and specs at forestriverinc.com

No, not yet. Maybe they'll be open later this week? Maybe it was closed due to it being Sunday or Presidents day?

In Atlantic City, NJ there is a RV Show at the Convention Center From March 2nd to the 4th. It is easy to get to. You Delaware Guys can pick up the train in Hammonton, NJ to save on Parking.

My wife and I went last year and ended up gettig a 25' Keystone. I pulled that (6,000 lbs.) with the 4.2L GMC Yukon. It didn't like it so Now I have the Sperduty.

Anyone hit Disney Yet? The Wilderness Campground is awesome.

Hershey Park is also good, but you can't go there on the weekend, park is just too crowded.

Anyway I have made my own page of RV Links and update it as I go to different places, so you can check it out if you want to. https://home.comcast.net/~jimproc/rving.html

For some reason, that link posted above doesn't work, here's my main page, then click on the camping link to see my sites, like I said, don't expect too much, I'm just getting started at this stuff http://home.comcast.net/~jimproc/

Fort Wilderness was awesome! We went down there in October, and the nights were very comfortable. It cost $50/night to stay there, everything was very clean and the sites were layed out real nice. But there is definately alot to do. We would hit the park early, com back and put the baby down for a nap and I would take out older daughter to the pool. Then we would head back in for the evening. Oh yea, NO CAMPFIRES

here's a link:
http://www.kingdom-travel.com/Walt_Disney_World_Resorts/Disney_Fort_Wilderness_Resort_Campgrounds.shtml

You want section 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 or 700. Get closest to the marina, since that will take you to the park.
Try to get a site near the streams, all kinds of critters crawling around in the night, we had an armidillo walk right through our spot.
The hoop De Doo Revue is something fun for the kids and the movie & Marshmallow roast is good, bring your own marshmallows, they charge you $5 and give you a huge bag that you just waste.
Bring Bikes or your own Golf Cart, they charge you $45/day to rent a cart
A good & Cheap layover during the travel is at South of the Border, they are open 24 hours. http://www.pedroland.com/hotels_camping.html Don't do as I did and drive till you're tired. The campgrounds up and down the interstate close early and fill up quick, so call & reserve a space if you can.
Don't worry about packing lots to eat, there is a Super WalMart on route 192 that has everything.

Camping at Disney is definately the way to go $50/night isn't cheap for a camp site, but the trash cans are never full, the bathrooms are spotless, the laundry rooms are spotless, the driveways and parking areas are paved, the campsites are super clean.
