Just Joined not new to Camping but 1st Trailer

Just bought my 2012 Shasta Revere 27RLSS TT two months ago and love Camping. Friends own trailers and Coaches and have been trying to get me to do it for years, but needed to buy a truck first so I got a 2014 Ford F150 FZ4 Crew Cab 4X4 with EcoBoost Engine. I love the feeling of the outdoors and fellow campers are all so nice and pretty cool people, made some new friends and I am enjoying my purchase.

Welcome to the forums from SoCal! RVing/Camping is a wonderful way to connect with the outdoors for sure. It's sort of like the old days when people interacted more with neighbors and didn't take life so seriously either.

You have already contracted that itch to upgrade.

Not so quick there. We started out with a 5er and I can see some advantages to TT's. Sometimes I wish I could put a cap on the truck and load up some stuff, rather than have most of the bed dedicated to the hitch.

Yeah we went TT and I have a 2014 F150 with EcoBoost so limited to 11,300 so only a few Crusaders I can buy, been pulling boat trailers all my life so went TT. We will see I own it Ca$h and if I upgrade it will be Ca$h up to $30K so not in a rush to blow it all yet my 2012 Shasta 27RLSS works fine for just Leisa and I.
