What change would you make?

[wernstriumph]

I would like to see a refrigerator that's accessable from both inside and outside the camper. It's a pain stocking the fridge (I have to get on my knees and sometimes that's not easy). Having a door on the outside of the PUP would be perfect hight and would make cooking easier, no more going in and out of the camper to get stuff, taking your shoes off each time etc..
I'm sure somebody could make this work.

There's a lot of nifty ideas like that that we consumers would like to see. The problem is, I think, that not enough consumers would buy that product or spend the extra money for it, so they could never make it work economically.

I would like to see a divider drape that will separate right across the center of the cabin area. Being the only male of the group I am eigther sent out or have to change in one of the bunk ends. It would be nice to be able to change standing up.

By next camp out I will have my own solution for this.

I would like to raise the ground clearance of my 97 Santa Fe and put on a larger more substantial set of tires. Our camping trend is going more to dry camping in more remote locations.

Well, we've been to one outting in our Avalon, and I must admit, as of right now, the only thing I would like to have, that I don't have... is those guages that tell you how much propane you have, and a battery meter, those are aftermarket, and around, I just need to get them and install them.  Our Avalon has the hardwalled bathroom, oven, indoor and outdoor cooking tops, furnace, a/c, as well as a dressing curtain that I can put in that divides the camper at the bathroom. So realistically I can't complain too much about any of it  We LOVE our camper!!  Now I just want a bigger TV... MWAHAHAHAHA

Implement some kind of fold up pantry/clothes closet - similiar to the unfolding of the hardwalled bathroom - maybe between the glide-out dinette and l-shaped sofa end.  Sure would be nice to hang some clothes without stressing the roof, and have some kind of shelf at eye level rather than bending, moving things around to find a can of something.  (Yea - I know - I'm lazy)

The particular era for my Starcraft offered two different series of popups, the Venture line (which I have) and the Classic line. As for the model I have it was  essentially the same unit for both series with the major difference being the Venture had a straight leaf spring axle suspension, the Goshen lift and a seamed aluminum roof. The Classic had the Torflex independent suspension, Starcraft's own patented lift system and a seamless fiberglass roof; the canvas, interior wood trim, exterior aluminum skin and floor plan were the same for both models.

If I could have ONE change in mine it would be for the Torflex independent suspension. A fishing buddy in our group had the Classic series in a little larger model than mine and has the Torflex suspension and I've towed it a couple of times. Although his a  little larger and a little heavier, it tows better and smoother with the Torflex.

I'm pretty sure that I've seen a fridge that has the cooling coils on the side and a door inside and out.  But for the life of me I can't find them now.  I think they may have been manufactured by a company other than Norcold or Dometic.

[cndlzrus]

since I would have to list one.... running water inside the pup... get rid of the hand pump, that I hate so much.  But a new PUP would solve most of my list of what I would change.....

Sorry for the caps but I want to shout this...

MAKE THE STABILIZERS INTO LEVELERS!!!!

It is silly that we need to buy & store levelers. The cost of additional material for the leveler and the frame would be insignificant to the final cost of the trailer....

A change?  Ok ..

A camper / hard side that accomodates 2 families.

When we go camping, we mostly go with my best friend and his wife / 2 kids.  We, meaning myself and my 13 year old.  We share the big bunk, my buddy and his wife take the smaller one, and his kids get the table bed.  Works for now - but I'd like something bigger .. But all the big stuff that's out there has ONE master bedroom and treats the rest of the people like second class citizens (in convert beds).

Nosiree!!  

My ideal camper, would be one with 2 master bedrooms, a set of bunk beds (three or four beds), a bathroom with a full sized elongated toilet (not one of those little .. "how the hell am I supposed to fit on that!"), and cooking equipment (sink, counter, stove) accessible on the OUTSIDE .. since we camp .. OUTSIDE ... Maybe have the fridges outside too.    Shower unnecessary really.  A/C that would bring the temp inside down to, oh say 75 degrees on a REALLY hot day, heat that would bring it up to, oh, say 70 degrees on a really cold day..

Oh that's a lot more than one change, huh?  

One change to my Jayco?  Going to make the hinged stove / sink thingy removable .. for more stowage space..  Maybe build a little light set of shelving..

InstaFreeze has made a pass-thrrough refrigerator for years.  They were even used on certain Jayco models a while ago.  Due to the compressor refrigerant design they only operate on AC, and DC with an inverter, but not propane.

One camping trip we had a gentleman next to us who had a beautiful new motor home.   We watched as he was getting ready to pull away.  He and his DW were in the cab and both front and rear stabs were down.  Front wheels were off the ground.  DD and I watched as he opened the door.  We saw him touch a button on the side of his chair..the front supports lowered the front end down onto the ground...he touched another button and the supports folded up under the cab.  Then he did the same with the rear supports.

Now THAT would be cool!

Who is going to be the first to mod their PopUp with these!

Or you can be fancy, and install a set of these!:p   Don't forget to reinforce the trailer frame!

Oh man that would be sooooo cool.  The ones I described were those swing down stabs.  Man was that fun to watch...especially since we were debating on whether we should tell the guy he was about to drive off with his stabs still down.

Should have seen our faces   :yikes:
