wanted: Hawk in california

[aaestrad]

Hi- We are looking for a Fourwheel Hawk camper to fit our 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500. Perhaps a Grandby, if it is not too heavy. If anyone has one that they are thinking of selling, or knows of a lead, please contact us.

I'm selling my 2004 Hawk FWC. It's in great condition with a king sized bed. 3 way fridge, house batt. with inverter, four corner jacks with swing our front brackets, Fantastic Fan, and scissors steps. I'd like to get 6K for it. If you have a short bed I think a Grandby might be a length issue.

Hey Jay, You are selling your Hawk! Dude, that thing is in cherry condition. I ought to buy it myself. How much do you want? I'll give you $6k for it if you can wait a couple of weeks.

I agree, no way a Grandby on a short bed. It looks lousy and makes for dangerous handling off-road or in emergency braking.

Wow. A potential sale in less than 11 minutes.

And folks wonder why these things are so tough to find used...

Wow. Are you going to get that trailer after all?

Hi Sunny,
Right now everything is on the back burner. I hope I have some news on the future this week. Thanks for asking.

I am in beautiful Long Beach. We are looking for something to take to Alaska this summer. If it is a good deal, we could travel a bit to look/buy.

Long Beach, CA

I've done many trips from Ventura to Alaska and Arctic Canada and back. It's a great trip, though you'll likely find BC, Yukon and NWT up to Inuvik to be the best part of the entire trip. Suggestions: Take Cassair Hwy as opposed to the Alaskan Hwy, visit Hyder along the way. Don't miss the Yukon River bush town of Eagle, Alaska (I was married there), Dawson City Yukon (best food is at Klondike Kates), the Dempster Hwy to Inuvik. At Denali, I strongly recommend the inside campground of Teklanika Camp. You must reserve and agree to stay 4 days without leaving, but at this camp I have seen many grizzlies and wolves.

And if you end up in Anchorage the Bear's Tooth theater and brewery is a blast! Avoid the Seward Peninsula, it is very densely visited by RV's and the sort. Way too crowded.

Alaskan historical Audiobooks you might consider listening to on your long drive up: "Coming Into the Country" by John McPhee, "Jason's Gold" and "Down the River" by Will Hobbs and my absolute favorite, "Kabloona". I think all are available on iTunes.


Enjoy your trip. If you have more questions feel free to ask.

Hi,
I am not sure that my replies are working. Still trying to figure out the ins and outs of this website. But, I am very interested. Could you email me with more info. aaestrad@charter.net. Thanks.

Wow! I will surely ask for more info. I really appreciate the tips. Right now, though, we are still working on the vehicle.

I'm waffling a bit here. I want to sell it but I also want to take one more trip before its gone. If you haven't found anything by the end of the year, let me know.
