Heya from Southeastern North Carolina!

Postby UP&ATOM » Sun Sep 20, 2009 3:41 pm

Greetings all!

Been a long time lurker and a full-time fan of your site!

The wife and I shopped for nearly two years looking for that just-right tiny trailer to tug behind our Honda Element - and we opted for the new Aliner Alite. Think "queen-sized bed on wheels"...a concept the teardropper are surely familiar with!

Look forward to dropping in frequently and sharing our camping photos and adventures. We're both very active in the Honda Element Owner's Club and the Aliner Owner's Club of America.

Cheers!

How do ya like that A-Liner? Where do ya do your cooking? Is it hard to set up? I kinda like it but isn't it a bit small? :thinking:
I don't mean to sound negative, just wondering about it. :oops:

All great questions! Here's a one minute video that shows just how fast the setup is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtWSc_MMZMI

I'm a six-footer, so I don't have any problems sleeping with the Dear Wife and Trophy Dog - Keep in mind, this is the smallest of the Aliners - here are some photos of recent Aliner rallies with various shapes and flavors - the Aliner Alite is pretty easy to pick out of the crowd. Basically a queen-sized bed on wheels as we tell everyone who moseys into our camp site - http://picasaweb.google.com/jmoncriefatec.rr.com

Nothing like a comfortable dry bed when camping. I'm in Chapel Hill. Also pulling a TTT.

My neighbor says she can't pull anything with her Element. I'll have to correct her.

Couple new pics from our trip to Chimney Rock and Lake Lure, NC last weekend. Met our friends Cayne and Teri who rented an 2010 Aliner Classic (much bigger than ours!) to tow behind their Chevy.

The leaves were just about perfect. Highly recommend the Rivercreek Campground in Rutherfordton

Enjoy the photos! http://picasaweb.google.com/jmoncriefatec.rr.com/2009ChimneyRockLakeLureCampingTrip

Heya Chick! Always nice to see a friendly face!

Hope you know Kat and I live vicariously thru your wanderings - looking forward to the day we meet up on a high, foggy mountain - dogs and tears in tow! Keep on posting!
