2010 standie $3200 East TN

Hi all,
Well I've got a small standie (The Box) that is pretty nice. Built in 2010 in Sneedville, TN on a Hurst trailer with 15" tires and tows very well behind a VW jetta TDI. Roughly 8' long x 6' wide x 6' height. Full size futon sleeping the width (6') of the box. Three pics in my gallery. It's got a full size door with screen in the back which is nice. We took it to Niagara Falls back in 2010 for a maiden voyage and have only been out in her for occasional weekends since then. It's outfitted with 2 x 20-lb propane tanks and 2 burner stovetop/sandwich oven (harbor freight). Also has a fantastic fan, 3 led lights, and a couple of 12v sockets and is wired for 110. No heat or air.

The 2 propane tanks were added to run a modified honda 1000 generator for chargine one 12V AGM Concorde battery. The battery ran the fan and an Edgestar 43 quart freezer - worked great for those smaller amp draws. Used a 5 gallon carboy with pump for water - there is no holding tank or any running water.

Anyway, the family camps fine, but doesn't travel well with a trailer (seemingly stop every hour for something :x ). We purchased a 1977 Toyota Chinook which has turned out to be perfect for our needs and I can now drive 5-6 hours while they mess around in the back (no faster than 60 mph downhill with a tailwind :) )

I'm keeping the generator, Concorde battery, and Edgestar. Just putting the box on here to see if there is any one in the market before I put it on Fleabay... I haven't had it out in 9 months or so - just let me know if you are seriously interested at four2329225six9.

While "looking in a sellers album" is one option, asking the seller for pictures is certainly reasonable.

While perhaps all sellers are not experts at posting pictures, doing so should be considered as important as posting an accurate description of the item for sale, as potential buyers want to understand what is being offered for sale.

There is no requirement to post pictures for any sale, but common sense dictates that if a seller really wants to sell their item, they will offer as much information as possible to allow the buyer to make an informed decision.

Scolding a potential buyer for asking a legitimate question? :thinking:

Well Rob, I wasn't trying to scold anyone. And you also know that there are a lot of members on this board that don't even know what ''common sense' is. I think I'll just stop posting. That way no one will get offended. :thinking:
