We love long road trips and take at least two a year in our camper van. We're on our fourth: a 1986 VW Westy, still Doug's daily driver; a Pleasure Way Excel, too big and we kept it only a year; a Pleasure Way Traverse Ford poptop, bought used and took us 60,000 miles in four years until it needed a new engine; and now a Promaster 1500 with 136" wheelbase. We've already put over 60,000 miles on it in 4.5 years, including the pandemic when we were mostly homebound. We've been around the US, especially love the Southwest and Pacific Northwest, and have made three trips to Alaska. We've been to much of Canada, and are drawn to the Yukon. We travel with just a vague itinerary, follow our noses, and avoid highways.
