Re:What did you own before your TM?
I'm with Windbreaker for sure, always a die hard tent camper. After baking in the sun for a few days in the OBX just sitting there in the sun, baking away.....we decided upon something better, maybe a pop up, or something else, didn't really know anything. (Not to mention Karen, my other half is disabled to an extent). We happened to "luck" into my TM completely. It was sitting on a "recycle lot" which today is the PC version of "Junkyard".....lol. I couldn't see it very well from where I was at, it sitting so far out on the lot, asked one of the guys if it was for sale, and he said it was owned by one of the other guys there and to ask him......So I walked up, asked him if it was, he said, "yes, how much you wanna give for it?" I said, "I dunno, I haven't really looked at it, or can even really see it well from up here, thought I'd ask is all". He replied, "Tell ya what, I'll sell it to ya for what I have in it......$400.00". So I took that into account, walked out on the lot, and looked at it. I opened it up, seemed nice on the inside except for the bathroom mirror was broken on the floor. Also, when it first opened up, I had three feet of sky between the shells as it was opening up way too far. A little time looking at it, and grabbing the owners manual, I beat feet when it fell about 3 feet to the streetside on the front shell. Got some others to help getting it back down, and told him I'll think about it. So I left there, talked to a local RV shop who said, "heck, for 400.00, you can sell the appliences out of it, and turn the frame into a car hauler, and maybe triple your money outta it or more, I'd go for it". So then I hit the web, found this place, found out a LOT about them that night, next day, GLEEFULLY paid the man his asking price of $400.00! Fixed it all up, and been happy since! I probably only have about $1000.00 in it total, and can't complain!
