In reply to TrekkerTom. I have a Lance 650 and it's pretty solid in the winter, just make sure to add some extra insulation and you'll be warm on your trips.

In reply to CamperKarl. Absolutely, especially for longer trips. The convenience of not needing to find campgrounds with restrooms is a big plus.

Interesting list, but I’ve read different payload ratings for some of these models. Are we sure the numbers in the article are up to date? Consistency is key when planning capacity.

In reply to CamperKarl. Do you think the trade-off in fuel efficiency is worth it for the added bathroom space? Trying to decide if I should make the jump from van to truck camper.

Not sure I agree with Bigfoot 10-6 ranking so high, there are lighter and more flexible options out there that didn’t make the list. What about them?

The bathroom options are a game-changer for families. Worth considering the larger models if you can handle the extra weight. Really good point in the article, Jonathan Holmes.

All these campers sound fancy and all, but will they really last more than a season? Seems like a lot of hype for something that might just be a fad.
