Keep or sell when you get back doesn't matter. The better camper you buy means easier to sell when you get back, and the more it will sell for. Also the less chance of problems while traveling. :wink:

He thinks he'll sell it...... :rofl Best buy one that breaks down all the time, and looks a mess then.....that's the only way you'll end up hating it and wishing you'd never bought one!!!

if you can, it maybe a good idea to go to dub freeze on the 22 feb. it may give you a good idea of which conversion you want. also give you a idea of how much you may need to spend. oh and if your thinking about selling it when you get back, don't give it a name, you'll only be more upset when you come to sell it, him or her.
