I am a recently retired brewery worker, hot rod builder, friend of Bill W., and beginning camping lover. I got the deal of a lifetime last May on a 2000 Scamp Fifth wheel, and have enjoyed dragging it around with my custom v-8 Econoline. However, after a multi state trip in September, the wife and I have decided to look for a Tacoma for our long distance stuff, and use the Ford for local camping adventures. Just getting too old to be comfortable several states away from home with my home built equipment...
    From what I have been able to learn from friends who have one, Tacomas seem to be reliable, and comfortable. So we are going to look for a 2nd generation with the v6. Here are a few pictures of our rig.
