You are right, Fred. The best beach camping ever was in the Westy. There is no way I could match that with a 45' behemoth. However, I don't think I
could live in the Westy full time with my wife.

Just curious, Udo.. Are you guys towing/bringing an around the town vehicle? Scooter or small car, etc?
I 've driven anything from a 29'er to a 79' bluebird school bus and parking was always very difficult outside of gas stations, strip malls, and
turnouts.
I'd love to have a westie.. but nobody lets the good ones go cheap enough for me. 
IMO - Camper on a pickup would be my preferred route if money was no object. Well.. ok.. the 50' diesel pusher with dual slide outs and a smart car
that dropped out the the rear, and helicopter out of the top...

Udowinkler....mi esposo says that if he were you he would keep the Westy, and tow it behind the 45ft motorhome . 
Remember, when in Mexico, yes may be no and no may be
maybe!

Yes, we are towing a 24' car trailer that will be a portable garage for a Toyota FJ. We have not done it yet but the trailer will have a large roof
rack for the kayaks. It will also have a roof mounted solar array to connect to the RV.
Marie-Rose:
We thought about the Westy in the trailer, but dos problemas: There wasn't a door tall enough for the Westy and we would need a 28' trailer. On a 24'
trailer the FJ takes 15' and the front 9' would be used for storage cabinets, an empty PILA, and other commercial restaurant/catering
equipment (especially my gelato machine!).

That may have been a challenging question as little as 5 years ago.
But not any more.

I didn't think so but it was such a cool picture with the grave yard in front that I wanted to include it. Maybe you and I.......and Shari are the
only ones who recognize the place.....dt

Hi folks,
My lady and I haven't decided on a van or motorhome just yet. We might just drive our car and look for houses for rent in Ensenada. If we decide to
extend our house-hunting range to the coastal mainland, say Mazatlan, we might even get a pop-top van.
Thanks y'all for your responses.
