When  I bought  my 99 IS, it already had a hitch and electrical hook up installed. Now I'm thinking why not do some camping?
I've looked on line at some MC camping  trailers, whew! expensive little buggers. Now, I'm not above doing some good old fashion tent camping, but I do prefer to be off the ground. Just wondering what experiences you folks might have as far as camping with your Fat Lady?

Or a new cargo trailer from H/F. Don't know the current retail ask but less than $400.00. RIDE SAFE.

Yah,  a cheap pull behind storage trailer can be had for under 1 grand or so, much cheaper than those fold out campers even used they fetch over 2 grand.  You can buy a lot of air mattresses and pillows and tents for that extra 1-2 grand used price of them tow behind camping trailers for a cycle. 

I want to do more camping going ATVing since I just bought a 7x23 enclosed trailer for my ATV's to pull behind my 1/2 ton truck, but the wife still prefers the accomodations of a hotel.  Although, I have plenty of air mattresses, heating/cooling/lighting/cooking supplies to carry inside the trailer to sleep and eat comfortably inside the enclosed trailer.  All I need is a campsite with electrical hookup costing say 20 bucks total per night vs. say 80 bucks on up for a hotel and camp right on or near the ATV trails.  Some campsites even have public showers still under 30 bucks per night camping.  If we really got into it which I doubt we will to go more often,  I'd spring for a generator.

You can find them pretty cheap if you look around. I got this one for $250.
