That's a cool thing right there.

Thanks for the offer. I want an 8' crank-up for better off hiway use, tow a trailer, and haul kayaks up top
Yeah, they bought a piece o' crap place up there built before permits and have it pretty nice now. Location location location... jealousy! She has a Vanagon with a Subaru motor for camping.

Never seen an Avion with a front dinette. And that looks like a half ton pickup under it.

That's an 8-lugger

Im not saying the going price isn't five grand, just saying ive seen them for less and its more than I personally would pay. I was on the hunt for one of these for a long time. I suppose I was looking for that elusive extra good deal =)

I remember when you were on the hunt.

Yeah, they had a blonde daughter about my age and we friended around together for the several days that we were both there. Another family at that campground had their little boy go missing and she and I were running around looking for him along with everyone else. This was just shortly after that couple got murdered at a campground near Silverton, so we were even peering down into the toilet pits. They found the little boy above ground somewhere without our help.

Next summer she stayed at home with relatives.
