    Subaru Forester

    Thanks, Bruce! Glad to hear it's done well. This car has been everywhere and we're happy it can still go camping with us. (:

    Subaru Forester

    Anybody pulling a 560 with a Forester? Ours is a 2001 rated for 2000 pounds (1000 if no electric brakes). Never towed with it before. We will be upgrading to a mini-van in the next couple of years, but don't want to hold off on getting on the road. We are planning on a 560 with electric...

    Update Update On Our 560 Reception

    I know...my gut tells me the same thing. My brain is telling me to put our ducks in a row first and make sure it's going to be a good fit. If my husband were a little shorter (he's 6'4) it would be an easier decision. :)

    Ongoing maintenance or repairs out of state

    We will discuss this with Cary before we purchase, but wanted the group's insight on this... We live in So Cal and the trip back after picking up the trailer may be the only long haul for a few years. We are planning on camping in the region and working up to longer trips as our employment and...

    Why are campers DO fanatics?

    As a Sea Scout we never packed a DO--too heavy. Nobody I know has ever used them. Now that you've gotten started, any tips? Any recommended reading? The food I've seen on sites looks really tasty. I'm learning how to make bread, so the bread recipes from this site are particularly interesting...

    Update Update On Our 560 Reception

    Congratulations! We are anxiously waiting to see a 560 in the next week so that we can get an order in ASAP. Cary said the orders are coming in fast and steady. The folks closest to us may not be back in time, so we are checking to see if we can see L.M.'s in Valencia this weekend. Enjoy it!

    Other Trailers

    We were also looking at fiberglass--especially the Casita. The bed is definitely smaller than any of the teardrops we looked at. We saw one in person last month. Casita trends larger than the Scamp units (according to the forums I've read on-line). The fact that the galley in these tiny...

    You tube video on the 560 Ultra

    Thank you for the video! We are going to check out a 560 in person next month--but this helped us get a better feel. One question: how has camping gone for you with it so far?

    Wow! If that shot doesn't get us camping at San Simeon, nothing will. Thanks for sharing!

    Considering a 560 for cross-country trip with kids

    I envy you guys up there--I went to Seattle University where I met my husband. We camped through the Olympic area and some of our first trips together were in the San Juans. Orcas Island is beautiful. Enjoy every moment--with or without a teardrop. (:

    Prospective Owners and Lake Perris Meet Up

    Thanks, Eileen. My husband will be happy to hear it. Just let me know what would work best to set that up--it seems like much of what we plan nowadays is affected by a very small person's nap schedule. Thanks for the offer!

    Prospective Owners and Lake Perris Meet Up

    Thanks so much. I'll give Cary a call--the map was not cooperating with my computer yesterday. Great job on this forum, by the way. Happy Friday!

    Prospective Owners and Lake Perris Meet Up

    Hi Everyone, Thanks for all of the great info on this site. Our daughter is turning a year old and we are itching to get back to camping. We are looking at a teardrop as an option. We have a Subaru Forester with a 2000 lb tow-rating (if electric brakes are included). We are considering the...
