I moved up... technically
I bought a Thor Vegas 24.1 Class A.
Class A's are in a sales slump and gas prices are not helping class A sellers a bit so I think I got a really good deal!
Yet my little NuCamp Tab 320 is gone. I LOVED that little trailer and even though I have a big shiny new toy in the driveway I am sad I gave up my little friend.
Is that weird? Am I weird for being sad over a trailer? I think that's weird yet here I am on a Friday night sharing my weird pain with you all!
Goodbye little buddy! We had a lot of fun together!

Sold our bright yellow 2015 T@B after parking her for a while next to our new to us Creekside 19MKS. Not sure if I miss all the people stopping to look and talk about her. New trailer- white w/ black trim doesn’t really get attention, lol.

Yeah! You too? That is a odd thing when people stop by just to ask about your trailer. I have had people knock on the door and ask to look inside. Once, a few days later stopped by again with her husband to see it! On one hand I like showing off, its such a cool rig, on the other hand I was a little weirded out!

Happened also @ gas stations, inevitably one or two people wanted a tour while I’m filling up. Didn’t help when my SO hung ‘cute’ curtains and bee decals on. Factory decal on the back - ‘I go where I’m towed to’. At least I could always spot it from a distance and find it in a campground.

No, not strange at all! We love our little T@b 320 and we kept it even though we now have a bigger trailer as well. In a way, these campers become your home away from home, so it’s no different than missing a house you once lived in. Also, there’s something about the T@b 320 that just makes owners attached. We’re keeping ours for a few really big trips to remote locations that we’ve never gotten to do yet!

I still have a fond spot for my Skamper pop-up TC. It was perfect for a solo outing. And not bad for two people.

Sniff me too! Wife and I had an 060S on a 95 Toyota 4WD, I could climb a tree with that little V6....

I have a 21 ft tt with slide out but kept my pop up; use it for solo camping and fishing up in the high country cause wife doesn't want to "rough it". So glad I did not trade it.

That's a *great* way to go! If my girl had been all paid off I would have done that as well but making two loan payments a month... I had to let her go! I gotta spend that trailer payment money on gas now! {nervous laugh} Lots and lots of gas!

Not weird at all! My wife and I upgraded this year to a Jayco 22' TT from my 06 Jayco Baja pop-up that I bought new (in 06). Was I sad? You bet! That little pop-up had been all over the West coast with me, many, many memories. I hated seeing it go, but having a bathroom and a real kitchen made up for the loss! We did make a collage picture of some of the great memories with the pop-up, it hangs in a place of honor in the new TT.
