I recently calculated I got my money's worth out my Hawk this year, 36 nights:D

This is a record for me as I've had just 4 nights in a year also.

Thought it might be interesting to start a thread that see's how much folks are getting use out of there campers.

Ohers?

We have owned our camper since September 12, 2008
So far 18 nights in the camper.

I've had my Granby for I think about 6 years now so I've lost track. It's on my truck almost full time - 1 time for 3 years straight - & always loaded with everything except water & fresh food.

The highlights are: 12 days from CO to CA & down through about the halfway mark of Baja & back, 2 trips up through western Nebraska into S Dakota, many weeklong hunting trips with my boys, a 1 1\2 week long trip through SW Colorado, a couple trips to Moab, & too many weekends to count.

I'd say it is probably the best $1400 I ever spent

Unfortunately, only 14 nights this year. Last year was 16, but we got the camper mid-summer, so it was a good year! Looking forward to >20 next year (fingers crossed).

I just recently got back from my 2008 trip to Baja. I was in my Sportsmoblie for 18 days straight! I was gone from the 15th of October to the 2nd of November. Went down as far as Loreto this year. Same crew as last year. I also traveled to Moab in April and Yellowstone in August. So I had a little use. Now I'm looking for 2009 adventures already. Hope to travel even more this coming year...:thumb:

Spent over two hundred nights in my camper last year. Right now, it's gutted and undergoing a major remodel as an outgrowth of that sojourn.

That is truly awsome, My dream after the kids are grown is to travel full time with my tools in a trailer & just pick up work as I need to - about the only way I see to ever approach you numbers;)

This is the first full year owning the Grandby. We did a couple short trips in west TN for one day each. Then we did two long trips, first one was 18 days in June and then the "first trip west" in Oct-Nov was 29 days. Total 49 days. However, I must admit that on the first trip west we did not sleep in the FWC on 8 nights. So total nights in camper is 41 for 2008.

I have a long way to go to catch up to Mark's 200 nights!

Not as many as I would like to. Sucks to go from having four weeks of vacation to none.

Around 40 for 2008. Much more than previous years. Hopefully the start of a new trend. :thumb:


One trip was for 10 nights. The longest trip yet.
