Wow $40k, I love the view looking out but it doesn't seem like there is any storage. Especially in the galley. I know at some point we will want something is this size when it is to hard to get in and out of the tear.

Probably just my personal preference - The Base Camp leaves me cold. To me it has a cold institutional look. I would miss wood on the interior.
I suppose the interior of the Base Camp cleans easier. :)

Don't get me wrong I could learn to be happy with it.

Well, if you can afford a $40k mini-trailer like this, then you can just get supplies delivered to you by, and meals cooked & served to you by your hired "minions". Or get a Prevost, add Jeep-style fenders, and install really big off-road tires on it! "Go big, or go home!" doesn't apply, when you can bring your home with you, anywhere.
