When we were in Pioche 2 weeks ago we had to stay at the local hotel and 3 nights cost us $401.00. We stayed there for warmth but mostly for a place to go pee and shower.
So we bought this camper to tow down there to live in while we're down there.
Its a 2003 Leyton Lite, 23 foot long and we paid $1,000 for it. Its got a little bit of water damage that they had started working on & just got tired of it so listed it at $1,500. I offered $1,000 and they accepted too fast, maybe should have offered less.
You can't see from the outside but the back left side has the damage.
They had pulled out all the ruined materials and patched the outer roof but left the inside.
I do like the layout, a queen bed up front with night stands, large kitchen sink, bathroom has a tub. Bathroom also has a soft floor so we'll need to address that issue.
The water damage is in the bunk area and since we don't have kids we'll just have a closet or storage there. The table does fold down to a bed.
we're moved it into the arena to dry out and do the work in there. Once its dry we'll put the roof sealant on it. Until then, I can put stuff in there. I have a lot of stuff we use in the other camper that can go into this one full time and things for the Pioche house. Tools and materials can definitely go in.
The bed is a queen like the other camper so the bedding can be interchangeable.
This is where it will be staying down there, on the side of the house. Its already flat and theres a sewage clean out right around the corner of the bathroom that we can use. Neighbor Tom said we can use his water and I'm OK with that set up.
Our next trip down in in April or May so I only have about 4-5 months to save up for it, then another 2 weeks in September.
Good news, I will have Fridays and Saturdays off for the next 3 months.
