>>> It could be a long time. Our oldest girl’s first campout in the Westy was at 8 weeks old. When she was 5 months old we took one though Europe for a month. She does not remember a Westy NOT being part of her summer routine. Now she’s 15, and we also have a 9 and 11 year old. All three really look forward to our summer trips. In fact the 15 year old wants a 70's Westy for her first car, but I told her I want her to learn on something with airbags first. (Not to mention that I'm unconvinced that a bed-on-wheels is the most prudent choice for a high school teenager. Kinda sends the wrong message.☺ ) Maybe when she goes to college. I have no doubt a Westy is in her future at some point; all of her best childhood memories involve one. Besides I know where she can get parts cheap. :-)
