Top Ten Reasons Why Camping With A Folding Trailer Is Better Than Camping With A Tent:
10 Stay close to nature without sleeping on the ground where the creepy things crawl around. 9 Put your stuff in the trailer and keep it there, ready for the great outdoors, or when your spouse kicks you out of the house. 8 Respect nature, respect yourself- the Tree Hugger in you won't disown you. 7 Many have hot water, shower, toilet, refrigerator, and can even be air-conditioned. Try that with a tent! 6 Makes camping with the young'ns easier and more enjoyable- for them and for you. Especially you. 5 No busting a lung to inflate the air mattress, only to have the blasted thing go flat at 4 a.m. 4 Easier to set up- fewer poles, no moat to dig, no stakes to pound, and it even works on sloping ground. 3 Packing the camper, not the car, means more people room and fewer "Are we there yets?" from the back seat. 2 Way easier to find- won't get lost in the attic or buried in the trunk. 1 Admit it…you've always wanted your own string of tacky lights and a camper awning to hang them on!
Top Ten Reasons Why Camping With A Folding Trailer Is Better Than Camping With A Travel Trailer:
10 Fits in most garages- no need to pay big bucks just to park it when you're not camping in it. 9 Large clear windows and 360 degree viewseven when indoors, it feels like being outdoors- not in a box. 8 Enjoy a chorus of crickets at dusk and birds at dawn – not your neighbor's gazillion watt generator turning on. 7 Fits in most garages- the home owners association won't hate you. 6 Easier to tow and back up than a travel trailer, letting you get into better, more natural campsites. 5 Expands to offer more sleeping and living space than most comparable towing length travel trailers. 4 Fits in most garages- and using a drive-thru window won't result in a call to your insurance agent. 3 Enjoy all the comforts and amenities of home, without feeling like you're towing your home. 2 No need for a hulking SUV just because you own an RV- "crank up the fun without paying at the pump". 1 Makes you look smarter than the average RVer. Even impresses neighbors and kids. How cool is that.
