Hey man where can I get a camper like that for under a thousand dollors ?

@meoffj94 I sold that one for $500. Paid $700 for it a couple years ago, with only minor problems. Things like the joints needed re-siliconed, the hot water tank was bad, and a leaf spring was busted. I siliconed everything myself, had a tank donated, and a member helped me replace both leaf springs. We had to replace the hangers and shackles, due to the original springs were an odd size. Keep an eye open on the classifieds. You'll find one.

It's a 17 foot. Believe it or not, the longer ones actually maneuver easier. The Sprinter has a tendency to cut short, when backing. It comes in handy when getting into the tight spots at a campground, but not so handy when you have to put it between 2 things. It likes to turn when the tire dips. But, it's a nice length to fly down the highway with.

Cool !!! I'd like to have something like that, I like the 18ft because I wouldnt feel comfortable pulling a long one, but yeah if I had one like that I'd be at the river every weekend chillin !!!, wait is that a 18ft or a 16ft ?
