New ROO owner from central Florida

Hey folks
After 10 years of camping in a pop up, we finally moved up to the ROO. We waited patiently for almost a year for the camper we wanted. We finally came across a 21SS for sale that was immaculate. We will be taking it on its maiden voyage in 3-1/2 weeks to our favorite destination - Fort Desoto Park in west central Florida.

We live on Lake Louisa. I have to do the dreaded 27/192 thing every day on my way to the Mouse.

Welcome, and enjoy your new hybrid. Coming from a popup you'll find the difference in comfort, convenience and the level of effort required is amazing. We went from a Coleman with a 12' box to a 21' Shamrock with a kitchen slide-out and were glad we did. We changed to a Mini-Lite because there's now only two of us but many families stick with their hybrid for years.

Welcome from Wisconsin. Congrats and enjoy your Roo 21SS! Years ago we went from a HW popup to a hybrid and loved all the extra amenities while keeping that open feeling that we liked.

Welcome from Baja Arizona! We also just recently upgraded from our old popup to a hardside. The first trip with it over Easter weekend, it was a pleasant surprise how much easier setup and teardown were. We had a lot of wonderful trips in the popup, but between its age (22 years now) and our age (I'm 61 now), it was time for an upgrade.
