I have been meaning to post to this thread. This past Sunday we returned from 2 weeks in Northern Missouri. We also hit a deer ... we were not pulling a camper though! It was pretty scarey! It damaged our front bumper and also damaged our speedometer. It now looks like we are traveling in excess of 120 mph whether the vehicle is moving or not. LOL!
We debated ordering a stainless steel basket for the front of my truck and having a receiver hitch welded onto the front of the vehicle. We plan to do this soon...after the repairs are made and we intend to get the basket that fold upward to help protect the vehicle in the future.
We moteled it for this trip to Missouri ...it did get pretty cold. Our inlaws in their MountainAire had trouble keeping the unit warm and it is a 4 season motor home. Our Outback is not a 4 season camper. I have no idea how a trail Manor would fair under tempatures of 16 to 17 degrees with the wind chill factor.
