SOLD 2014 Camp-inn 550 Ultra In New Hampshire

Thank you. Good idea..

 

The trailer sold off a Craigslist ad. I wasn't expecting such a quick sale, was enjoying the forum here. Now I'm trying to figure out how to change my Camp-Inn ad to "SOLD." I just don't see how to do it. Can someone help? And thank you for all your input and assistance. Thank you thank you!!

I already talked to the new owner today. They are really thrilled!

Thanks so much, campdude. There is plenty I do not understand about navigating here. )

 

Yes, he and his wife seemed very happy, and I was glad the trailer went to a good home. Thanks for all your help and advice, Cary. I'll still be lurking on this site to try to get more of a feel for how this works. It's pretty fun and very informative, plenty of supportive like-minded people.
Thank you.

Just to close this thread, I'm the one who bought it. It was as close to a spontaneous purchase of such a size as I'll ever come, for sure. But I had begun to do some teardrop research and this was an hour away and I had to jump on it. I realized that at 6'2", a teardrop with an internal kitchen, eating area, and bath was just trying to do too much, and that a comfy bed and clamshell galley was all I wanted. Bingo. My kids are 14,12,9, and so I anticipate taking our new Camp-Inn on family trips (kids in a tent), one-on-one's with each kid, and then, eventually, road trips with my wife. We're cyclists, so I can see hopping around the country, finding a place to stay, and seeing the area up close by bike. It will be nice to not have to set up a tent and kitchen every night.

Sara was such a pleasure to deal with and I'm glad I was able to make the purchase as smooth and easy as possible for her. She and her friend even drove it to my house an hour away! (I didn't have a plate yet).

I've been experimenting with the best methods for pine sap removal - WD40, had sanitizer, rubbing alcohol, goo gone (they all work about the same, what I'm not sure about is what I can safely scrub/scrape with - any advice?) - and as soon as those spots are removed it will get a good polishing. Everything is in great shape, and a little airing out, wiping down, and odor sponges have it smelling fresh. Now working on adding the rear hitch for a bike rack, a few small repairs, and figuring out how to upgrade the wiring harnesses on our vehicles. Maybe brakes too. First shake-down trip is in two weeks with my son, can't wait.

 

Someone on another forum recommended Dr. Bronners SALSUDS Bio Cleaner for pine rosin.

 

I cant' help with the tree sap -- but I can say welcome to the family

You'll find a wealth of knowledge in these forums, and of course a pretty good rag-chewing session if you want The camper look right at home in your photo!

 

I camp often in pine woods. To get the globs off gently I apple a little bug and tar remover then pick at them with my thumbnail. It’s very gentle.

 

That looks spectacular!

What does an “acid wash” entail?

 

Dang!

 

Whoof. I'm not sure I want to work that hard but that looks pretty incredible!

I've been told this level of polish is difficult to acheive, but easier to take care of -- I'm curious what the reality is.

 

Beautiful GSP!
