    Hey Everyone.

    I was hopeing that somebody out there could help me with this.
    Basically myself and a few friends are taking a bit of a break for about 5 months to drive around the U.S.
    After a bit of research, re accomidation, and car rental ect we realised that the best thing to do would be buy an old camper (motorhome) for a couple of grand and either try sell it or just scrap it when were done.

    Now I think our combined knowledge of the whole campervan thing is that I hooked up with a girl staying in one at Electric Picnic last year..
    So completly clueless...

    can anybody help me with a few things.
    Is there a website that can fill me in on the required lingo (if any) that I'm gonna need to argue with a Chichago RV salesman over price?
    Any pitfalls or just things to look out for when buying?
    Is there any particular makes that have a good reputation?

    Even better than that has anyone done anything close to this that can offer any advice?

    Cheers,

    Waz.

    Yea I think we have the perfect group for something like this.
    And Its going to be one hell of a start to my round the world trip.

    We still need some info tho and trawling through the net is like looking for a rusty needle in a haystack.

    Anybody have any help or suggestions for me? :)
