The two Altos were owned by brothers. The one towing with the Jetta was towing the newer version. It did not have the raisable roof and was at least as tall the one with the raisable roof.
It was a lot taller than my 6'1" height. The shower was at the high point to take advantage of the height
I liked it better than the older version, less
windows but plenty. As well less to go wrong.
As to my addition of the CRV info, it was to counter earlier comments by to show the road less traveled can work and has worked.
