I'll bet if you asked around, you'd find someone with a full camper who would swap with you. As far as I can tell, full campers are easier to find than poptop weekenders. Me, I like being able to roll over and start my coffee while I'm still in bed (and once I get my propane tank issues straightened out, I'll be able to do that again).
