Quality of Hi Lo Campers.

I have only been a member of the camper community for about 5 years now and my 98 Hi Lo is my 3rd camper. I currently still have my 2nd camper which is a 2004 29 foot outback. I've fooled around tweaking a few things on my outback and have been though it about like I have my Recent Hi Lo. I have to say, I am very impressed with the quality of these campers. They seem to be built alot better than my others. I crawled under my Hi Lo yesterday and was amazed at the condition of it. The floor are very solid! Heck, my 6 year new outback is not in this good of condition! It almost looks like the entire underneath of the camper has been treated with undercoating. The black water, grey water, and the fresh water tank seem to be made of better heaver plastic. I'm guessing that the floors on these campers stay solid better than others due to the the upper portion of the camper hanging out over the lower section. Therefore the brunt of the water damage if you have a leak is concentrated to the lower wall of the upper area of the camper. This makes for a heck of a lot easier repair if one is ever needed. This has got me thinking about selling my outback and buying an additional Hi Lo. This 98 I was planed on being my hunting only camper, but I find myself liking it more and more. Do they make a Hi Lo with bunk beds?

Probably not like you are looking for. Mine has a fold-down upper bed platform that sits above the main sleeping area. You COULD put an adult in it but I wouldn't risk someone over 200#. It's mostly good for children and our two Grandchildren have shared it in their younger years. The mattress there is very thin too.

I don't know of any other kind of bunk bed in HiLos.

As Jack said, the models that have the swing-down bunk are as close as you'll get. The tradeoff on this arrangement is you give up the storage potential of the upper cabinets over the main sleeping/dining area.

Here is a photo of mine. Supposedly rated for 350# but, once again, as Jack said . . .

Yeah, thats the same setup as mine.

Quality of HiLo

I would strongly advise you to take out all of your windows and reseal. Many of us have had to do extensive wall repair due to leaky windows. This is not the only possible water leak site.
