In June, 2008, we started looking at small motorhomes after we had seen an ad for an Itasca Navion IQ in a magazine.  There were three of them at New Hope RV in Lowell, Arkansas, as well as several other small motorhomes built on the same Dodge Sprinter chassis.  The biggest problem was that the shower space was simply inadequate.  There was no way I was going to fit into the shower as it was built.

another large offroad rv, Arches National Park, September 24, 2007

The is one of two large offroad recreational vehicles we saw parked at one of the trailheads in Arches National Park on September 24, 2007.  The other offroad RV was of similar size but on a different truck chassis.  Later we saw both vehicles again, parked at a picnic area.

This RV is built on a Mercedes Benz Unimog frame.

 

Drycamping in an old Class C in a BLM camping area used for Natural Bridges National Monument overflow camping

This Natural Bridges National Monument overflow camping area is on BLM land about 2 or 3 miles from the monument.  We stayed there two nights and had plenty of room to ourselves.  This older class C motorhome arrived on our second day, towing the small car next to it.
