Greetings,

I have been looking at your forum for some time and finally decided to join. I am not new to camping but considering a fiberglass camper in the future. I join as a posting member to learn from others and to also share my knowledge as a camper.

Welcome to the forums, Rodney. Lots of knowledgeable people on this site. What style of camping have you been doing?
You can't go wrong with a fiberglass trailer that will last you for years.

Hi Barb,

I grew up with boating and tent camping then about twelve years ago I rented a motorhome in New Zealand for the summer. Fantastic Experience. I went everywhere in that thing.

I came home and was ready to buy a Winnebago View. (I liked the B van I rented but wanted a bit more space). The prices were, to me, astronomical for a sideline activity. I looked at used ones, rentals, that were just trashed and they wanted over half of their original MSRP- too much. I was disappointed. Then, a year later I went to the Tampa RV Supershow, a really large RV show in Florida. I discovered Airstream. I visited the dealer 140 miles away three times looking at new ones and finally ended up buying a used one in 2012. I have been working on it mostly (just updating and upgrading) and have taken a few trips but really enjoy it. I have been toying with the idea of looking at other options too. I like the Olivers and see the benefit to fiberglass. So, there is my story. I am currently an Airstreamer but things can change!

Welcome aboard! Lots of us in Florida!

Rodney, welcome to the FGRV forum family. A new upstart fiberglass trailer called the Nest Caravan was quickly purchased by Airstream and they claim to be selling by 2018 (I think). Oliver is a very nice trailer, and larger than the Nest.
