Area13..Very nice camper...I have always thought pickup campers have had very generic floor plans, up until Host came out with there very different ones..I really have not seen one I did not like.
The one issue I do have is the lack of actual weights on them, like TC campers buyers guide, is a pretty good take on the weights of different campers,at least in the ball park, from what I can tell.I cannot find actual ready to camp weights on the Host line of truck campers.First thought at looking at the pictures, is there really heavy...Dry weights listed are as everyone knows,misleading.
Enjoy that camper....

We looked at one of these at Tom's Camperland in Mesa, we really liked the layout, it had the two recliners with the L-shaped dinette and the bedroom area was actually pretty easy to get in and out of! We like how you don't have to do the shuffle when getting dressed or cooking, plus the dry bath. The Host campers seem to tick most of our boxes also, but we are pretty happy with our AF811 for now! Now it's the waiting game with all the anticipation, good luck and enjoy!

Thanks to all the well wishers. This is a huge investment that the Wife and I feel pretty good about. We’re empty nesters in our late 40’s and figure this will get us to retirement and then go from there. We figure this is our little cabin we can travel around the US and Canada in.

Awesome TC. CONGRATS on ordering just what you want. Your going to love the hi low table. The recliner looks very comfortable.
Disregard the **** comments, they are just jealous they didn't order it. Post a ton of pics when it comes in.
Enjoy it and may the time pass quickly until it gets here.

Can the recliner be tilted back? Doesn't look to me like it does? If so how much?
Sorry Area13 how the thread is turning around, but it is common on this forum that pointing the facts will trigger avalanche of bashing from forum trolls.
That stops people having something constructive to say from posting.
Don't know if you already made full commitment on the camper, but I don't see how you can be happy having no cloths storage in main living area?
Those things can be still customized before taking delivery, can't they?

Very good point. I leave my socks and underwear in the food pantry and bring the pancake batter and ground coffee to bed. Sigh.....

You are talking about clothes.. the adviser was asking about cloths. I keep my cloths on a shelf under my sinks.![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/biggrin.gif "biggrin")

I think a poster might not have any clothes ... just saying. ![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/grin.gif "grin") Seriously though, there must be some reason why there is more than one design/layout out there other than people are clueless. Could it be we all don't like the same thing? ![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/wink.gif "wink")
