If you are new to the RV lifestyle, a pre-owned vehicle could save you thousands compared to a new unit; however, costly maintenance issues no longer covered by a warranty are a possibility.
On the other hand, a brand new unit, although significantly more expensive, is covered by manufacturer’s warranties and often comes with attractive financing options making it much easier to afford.
Perhaps you’ve daydreamed of a life on wheels and would like to convince a significant other who’s undecided to join you in the adventure.
Well, if you’re looking for reasons, we have a top 10 list of reasons why so many people are choosing the RV lifestyle to help win your travel companion over.
You’ve seen the travel videos and you’re pumped. You want in.
Perhaps the best way to start is with a pre-owned unit. No worries, we can help guide you through the process.
The RV life beckons, but a nagging question lingers: what will it cost? One way to start is to explore the different types of RV’s.
Learning about the different classes of motorized RV’s and travel trailers will help you get the lay of the land in terms of price and accommodations. Before you know it, you’ll be rolling down the highway on your RV adventure!

The Northern Lite 8-11EX Limited Edition (LE) Dry Bath is a premium, non-slide, four-season truck camper designed specifically for short-bed trucks. As the “Limited Edition” model, it represents the highest trim level offered by Northern Lite, featuring upgraded solar power, luxury interior finishes, and high-end windows that aren’t standard on the Special Edition or Sportsman models.
Why the “Dry Bath” Matters
The 8-11EX is famous for being one of the few short-bed truck campers to offer a true dry bath.
Layout: The toilet is separated from the shower area by a divider or curtain, meaning the entire bathroom doesn’t get wet when you shower.
Space: Northern Lite added 4 inches to the original 8-11 mold specifically to create a more functional, “roomier” dry bath without sacrificing dinette space or hallway width.
Limited Edition Exclusive Features
The LE trim differentiates itself from the Special Edition (SE) through several luxury and functional upgrades:
Solar Power: Features 600 Watts of solar (3 x 200W panels) as standard, compared to the 200–400W typical on lower trims.
Windows: Upgraded to Dometic S5 windows, which feature a top-hung design and integrated honeycomb pleated blinds for better insulation and infinite positioning.
Interior Finish: Includes a solid Sapele hardwood table and premium leatherette seating.
Exterior: Distinctive raised chrome graphics and integrated exterior speakers.
Construction & Design
Two-Piece Clamshell: Like all Northern Lites, it is built using two fiberglass shells (top and bottom) joined like a boat. This design eliminates most seams, significantly reducing the risk of leaks.
Four-Season Rated: The camper features a heated and enclosed basement, double-pane acrylic windows, and block foam insulation, making it capable of handling extreme Canadian winters or desert summers.
Cabover: Features a North-South 60″ x 80″ queen bed, meaning you don’t have to crawl over your partner to get out of bed.
Pro Tip: Because of its ~3,000 lb dry weight (which can exceed 4,000 lbs once loaded with water, gear, and passengers), this camper is best suited for a 1-ton (3500/F-350) short-bed truck to ensure you stay within the payload capacity.
