we have a friend (a couple) not as old as us (in their 30's) sold their
westy and get another rig a bit roomier with a small shower/toilet/kitchen.
They got a Toyota Tundra and install a used Sunrader camper shell on it and
they're are very happy with it, we like it a lot too. The Sunrader camper
shell is hard to find and they have to remove it to install on their
Tundra. After seeing their combo Tundra/Sunrader-camper-shell we have our
idea when it's our time to move on... - I'd think a pickup truck and a
slide in/tie down camper shell would be nice for us. We also have another
idea.. a Sprinter camper but it's bit too pricey if it's fully equipped or
an empty Sprinter which we have to build the accommodation ourselves...
