 Apparrently it is not at all unusual for these huge motor homes to cost over
 a mil. 
 
 And they don't even drive them selves yet!
 
 Wow, I could buy a fabulous live aboard cruising sail boat for a mil and

Hi Lenny
I suggest you or the owner contact the pop top manufacturer to see what is
available.
For if the pop top is new you may void the life time warranty if it was
purchased new.
Explain what is the problem and a solution could be available.
I have just purchased my second caravan this one is a pop top with a manual
roll out awning, I am sure if this is his problem there is an electric model
available.
I sold the first caravan because it had a wind up roof and the double beds
has to be pulled out and support legs placed underneath.
This was fine on good weather but no good when raining.
Now with the new one we can get inside straight awayand just pop up the
rooffrom inside.
Good luck resolving this problem.

I know it is a little too early to talk about camping. Just have an idea for

a friend. Last year they traded their fifth-wheel unit on a popup because of

medical problems. With his heart condition it was too difficult to set up 
that unit. The pop-up unit has power lift. Now the problem is that the pull 
out sides are not powered and he can not set them up. His daughter hurt  her

back and now can not help him. I am wondering if a jin pole and 12v winch 
would work for pulling out the sides?  It might also be possible to set up 
the  winch to pull the sides back in place. Any thoughts?

Hi lenny

Well the money you can spend on caravans is endless for example we were at
the Caravan Show last year in Sydney.

WE passed this  large motor home which was worth 750,000 and I said to my
wife no one has the money to buy one of these.

But there was a couple talking to a salesman inside. 

We looked inside another and there was a little boy inside.

He said if I buy one of these today his sister goes with it, apparently he
had had enough of her.

This cracked us up I can tell you.
