Ways to move a popup camper from back yard to front yard

I don't understand the question. Does your vehicle not puill it?

I wanted to use something else besides the vehicle. It works but it's a bit cumbersome to drive it back there and it is easier with the riding mower (if it works and keeps traction)

Cheapest solution is tire chains on the mower you have. Add weight to the front to keep it down. For the chains you can make a set up pretty cheap 15 or 20 feet of light gauge chain and just zip tie the cross bars sections in place and that'll get you by.

That's a good idea.

How often do you actually *USE* the camper?
Is it actually worth keeping it?

Some people pay the upfront cost for the camper, just to have it sit for 50(?) weeks out of the year. (2 full weeks usage per year?)
Add in repairs (if any), and the extra costs of fuel for trucking it around (as opposed to driving the economy car).
...and the camper isn't so cheap 'per night' of usage.

Me? I'll spend my money on a hotel room, and avoid a whole lot of hassles. ...for the few nights I'm out yonder.

...but that's me.
Your opinion may differ.

Heres the deal on the ATV, errr- the reason Ive had when Im buying them. When youre not moving the camper or other utility uses then you have something cool to do by riding the ATV.

Pave your backyard. Then you won't need to mow! 2 birds, 1 stone!

WINNER !!!!
With the added bonus, you can paint it white and have snow any time you want.

Lots of good points there...it's definitely not saving any money. All it provides is an experience...and life stories. Lol.

It's definitely an expensive way to sleep and get around. But we seem to enjoy it the few times a year that it happens.
