Slightly over the top for Baja maybe? Especially the first time you meander up a windy, narrow box canyon then have to back out!

I had the factory leave the heater out for more storage space and camp in the snow. No problem, I just get Marian up early to light a burner!:o:o

On the new Power Wagons


Are you referring to the redesigned '06 Dodge full-sized QuadCab trucks? Dodge has gotten tired of hearing how much smaller their cabs are compared to Ford and Chevy.

They have not announced when (or if) they will be making a longbed version. Right now, it will be short-bed only. That means that the over 8 foot camper versions may not be an option.

As I have previously mentioned, the softsided popups can be very noisy in even moderate winds......the sound of shuffling canvas. But if you are not a light sleeper, they probably are the way to go. Low profile and much less twisting stress on the frame, as a whole. They should be really easy to find used, too.

They obviously are much poorer on insulation if you need to heat or cool them artifically.

On camper "heaters"-------


We just use a "Mr. Heater Buddy" portable propane heater. Self contained using 2 little tanks of propane (tho you can use a 20 lb bulk tank, and hose), supposed to auto-shut off if carbon mono present (but we always vent outside), can also be used outside around the campfire to heat your backside, and will heat your camper in about 5 mins. We hardly ever need it, tho. They cost about $100. Very small and easy to store.
