Quick question

XP marketing shows how easy it is to load/unload the XP from the truck.

Can the XP be offloaded from the truck, set up on jacks and used as a base camp without having to reinforce the floor?

Thanks

I contacted XP directly. The XP is not designed to be used as a base camp on jacks and off the truck. The floor needs to be supported and the water drained from the tanks.

Ok. The base of the camper has to be supported. Supports/folding sawhorses/a plywood base or some other way of supporting the camper base would make free standing use feasible, so not a deal breaker, just a hurdle. Of course water would need to be drained for the transition process when the bottom/base is not supported. Another hurdle, but easily solvable in "water nearby" camping areas.

Life is all about hurdles, some big, some small. :-)
