Hello Wander the West people!
After a couple years of lurking and learning so much from the many fine and helpful forum users here, I've finally registered and joined the club. I figured the best way to dive in here is to introduce ourselves with some personal and camper information.
My fellow camper, hereafter (and affectionately!) referred to as "wifey", and I came into possession of a 2011 4 wheel camper Eagle model about 3 years ago. The information we gleaned from this site was a tremendous help in this major lifestyle decision. So, I want to say thank you to all of the contributors to threads such as "buyers guide" etc...
Given what's transpired with the market for these campers over the past few years, we realize now how fortunate we are to have purchased the Eagle when we did. Many of the minor upgrades we've made have also been informed by this forum.
Wifey and I are in our early 50s and located in NW Washington. As "working stiffs", with varied outdoor and travel interests, we have only scratched the surface in terms of camper use thus far. Our bigger trips have been to lonely and remote areas in southern and eastern Oregon. Here in Washington, we frequently use the camper for trips across the Cascades for camping, mountain biking, mushroom foraging, and (me) chasing upland birds with our 3 year old griffon, Mila. Our other "go to" is family property in our local San Juan Islands.
With the new camping season upon us and some electrical upgrades under way, I wanted to finally say hello, prepare you for requests for input, and reiterate our thanks to the members who have unwittingly helped us take the plunge.
All for now!
Chris
