First Adventure in our ATC Bobcat camper

My set up is a 05 Tacoma with ARB suspension KO2 tires and Firestone airbags 4wd v6 auto, 2011 ATC Bobcat full camper.
Everything is working as it should. I've been driving mostly in the 60 to 65 mph range, except twisty mt.roads more in the 50 mph range. Averaging 14-17 mpg. I think that is ok considering my normal average everyday driving with no camper is only about 16 mpg.This same trip with no camper years ago I know I saw in the low 20 mpg.
No regrets, this camper is going to be awesome.

First welcome to the "cult". Nice trip area.We made that LoLo pass trip
about 10 years ago and camped a couple nights at the river sites.
Great area.
How about some pictures?

Sounds like a nice trip.You went through a lot of our favorite places.
Did the fridge thing myself once.At Yellowstone parked for about 3 hours
but the battery survived although it was only about a year old at the time.
It's easy to forget that 12v fridge sometimes.Don't use the 12v setting anymore.
I use the propane and also have a 12v Truckfridge which runs all the time and uses very little battery.
Thanks for the report.
Next time some pictures.
