Anyone know much about campers/trailers?

We've always wanted to own a piece of property/somewhere to go at the beach in the summer time... With the arrival of sonny boy, it kinda makes us want to have somewhere to take him as he grows up so he can enjoy the beach during the warmer parts of the year...

Someone at wifey's work has camper for sale that we went and looked at this weekend... It is in a campground about 4-5 miles from Surf City/Topsail...

It is a 40' Keystone Residence, 2010, and has additional perks like:

A ceiling fan they installed

An extra air conditioning unit installed

A wooden deck built onto/up to it

All utilities (power/sewage/water/cable), the lot, etc. provided by the campground for $3000 a year

Campground parties/cookouts

Campground enforced noise ordinance from 11:00 PM - 7:00 AM

Campground bugbombing/fogging of entire complex during the spring/summer months

The camground itself is also behind a good treeline (at a good distance away from it too) that should be a good wind barrier...

They are asking $35,000 for it, which isn't really a bad deal... If we make them an offer, I'll still go lower...

I'm not sure of the depreciation of these trailers, insurance costs, upkeep, etc... but to me, this sounds like if we got 10 years of use out of it (factor in the space fee and price, you're talking a $65,000 or so investment for that time frame) we'd be doing better than hotels or buying somewhere closer to the beach... Also, worst case scenario, I hook my truck to it and pull it home...

Anyone have experience with campers/campgrounds like this... Does it sound like a good deal?

Thanks in advance...

also...I can't find a Keystone Radiance...is it a Residence?

good catch... I fixed that...

I'm pretty sure the people selling are convinced the campground itself is good because they purchased a permanent trailer in the same campground... So they'd be there most of the time we needed anything or had any questions for them about it...

looks like a pretty sweet unit based on the Keystone website anyway. I like PS's idea of seeing if you can use it/rent it for a weekend and try it out. Spend some time talking to the neighbors and see what they think of the area.

    • We've never seen them outside of the structure of two very well ran organizations I'll give you that. And yes they are long in the tooth. I do think they are more than capable of getting a franchise turned around in short term capacity though. They are by no means a long term solution.
    • You're not making a good-faith argument by blaming literally everything on the quarterback when the defense gave him a fat 38 seconds to overcome its ineptitude, but it seems you're dead-set on blaming him for any problem the team encounters. In this case, it's not warranted. Sometimes it is. But he had no time to throw (pressured on 46% of all dropbacks, an insane amount) and that's simply not all his fault -- particularly when they rush 4 or less and are in the backfield in 1.5s or less. Should we have gotten more than 0 yards? Sure! But he hit a WR in the hands on fourth down and it was dropped. Not his fault. He missed one throw on second down but I attribute first down to a bad play call and third down to poor pass protection. I would've called some quick slants, personally, but it really seems you're saying: - playcalling: Bryce's fault - poor pass protection: Bryce's fault - defensive choking away a lead: Bryce's fault, not the defense - Horn dropping a pass: Bryce's fault It's a great way to garner support on here, because when it comes to Bryce, logic takes such a backseat to context that it's not even in the same vehicle. Plenty of games can be attributed to him. Can't take anyone seriously who solely blames him for that one. 
    • I don't see how you can logically make that argument when the team beat two of the top teams in the entire league during the regular season.  Now imagine the additional games we would have won against absolute tip top competitors like SF and SEA had we had a professional QB.  You can throw any random stat at the problem you want, but the proof is in the pudding.  We all watched it live.  This roster would have produced 13 wins (wins against SF and SEA, two wins against NO, and would have swept the Bucs) and (almost certainly) a #1 seed with a remotely competent QB.  Those were not games where we needed an all star performance to win.  Those were games where a very, very modest stat line would have netted us an easy win. Nearly every measurable aspect of the team would have been significantly improved with a competent QB.
