There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Anyone using an Aspen Camper like this?

I would consider something like that, but at 325 empty, it's a little heavy. I'd also want to bring a small AC.

Aspen Classic
I have the Classic. It has a HUGE storage area and as a female pack rat I do have a tendency to over pack. BUT that thing just followed right behind me without any problems!!! Have stabilizers on all 4 corners which are 2 inches too long so have to carry 2x4's to pull it up onto so I can put the stabilizers down. Got it from a gentleman from Texas thru S.L. Have had no problems pulling it. I have a 2010 RT-S 998 motor. Have only used it about 4 times to Wisconsin and back. I am STILL learning how to get her wrapped up and secure without anything coming out the sides!!! Have all the instructions IN plastic and refer to them EVERY time!!! Eventually I get er done and on the road again!!

We had an Aspen Sentry back when we had our 2010 RT. It towed great. Once you get used to setting it up, it doesnt take but 5 minutes to complete. Of course, tear down/packing up takes much longer. We really enjoyed it.
One thing I did discover: Make sure to check the hinge bolts for tightness. If one of these bolts comes out, you are in for one helluva fight getting it back together. Ours came out while at a campground in Montana. I bought a temporary replacement from True Value, but getting that bolt back in with all the plastic washers in the correct place was a nightmare! I lost a thumbnail trying to align it up. Fellow campers thought I was a nutcase!
. I called the company and they sent me a whole hinge set for the one side. After I got home, I took out the old bolt and installed the new one from the factory. THAT took another hour of fiddling around, but I did get to keep all of my fingernails!

Hello,
One might like to see the leisure lite trailer made in canada. 54 in. bed with large dressing area and sets up in seconds. I've set one up in the dealership and really easy. Owned two tent trailers and the setup on Leisurelite is amazing. Also, the dry weight is 225 lbs. Lost brochure ,so check weight. Dealer in Sandy, Or. Orders eight at a time and has sold out twice. Happy camping

It is a Free Sprit, made in Bend OR. but I think they only make bigger ones for cars now. We got it new for $2800 and love it.

Same thing happened to us. I drilled out bigger holes and used stronger bolts with nylock nuts to prevent loosening!
