Like many others here I am looking to buy a used All Terrain Campers Bobcat or a Four Wheel Campers Fleet. Would like to stay somewhere "around" $10k and located in the Northwest. I am also looking at the sites suggested but thought I would post it here too. Thanks

Thanks, I saw this one too. Nice camper. Worth the money I think. My first thought was, "hmmm, I wonder if anyone from Seattle drove down to watch the Super Bowl, with an empty pick-up and wouldn't mind bringing it back for me?" With the average ticket price of $6,500 I doubt they would care about me helping with gas money. lol

Jim: If you don't mind doing some (or most) of the interior work yourself for cabinets, table, stove and furnace install, you should cost out a shell model. We bought an ATC Ocelot in Nov. 2013 and total cost into it now is about $13K. We have a two burner stove, icebox, Propex Furnace, side dinette, Fantastic Fan, rear steps, Yakima racks, cabinets, etc. When I was looking for a camper I put together a spreadsheet and every time I ran the numbers on what a use camper would cost, then add in what we wanted (and having to think about taking some things out) was basically cost neutral to a new unit.

I am the king of custom stuff. I build custom fly fishing prams for a living. This one I just want to get in and go fishing. Like any other DIY project they never seem to be "done done" as my neighbor says. I looked at the one in Mesa, AZ and saw it didn't have a fridge and decided against it. I may go the Northstar route if I go new.
