Hi all i have decided to purchase a camper. my plans are to find a vehicle that will reliably allow me to travel to and from several weekend bluegrass festivals each summer, no further than 600 miles away. i prefer a hookup for a sink and power, and air conditioning would be nice. two people, a couple instruments, and light baggage will be the maximum load. i have three questions: 1.) how much should i expect to pay for a RELIABLE vehicle--will $3500 do it? 2.) what should i look for in terms of reliability (models, years, features, etc to avoid?), and 3.) where is the best place to look for such a vehicle--CA is not out of the question. thanks for ANY help you can offer. i am ignorant in the ways of the VW vanagon camper! thanks kip |
