[QUOTE=JR1946;15820505]My other car is a … well its not a car but a “Tiffin”, Phaeton Diesel Coach!

When I retired 14 years ago we started RVing and have visited some 45 states and have always towed a jeep or a sports car for exploring. This year we started towing our new low loader trailer so that we can enjoy our 991.2 GTS on all of our trips!

Campsite photos are looking up at the Superstition Mountains in the Lost Dutchman State Park in Arizona.

Bet you get some crazy looks when you pull into a campground. A 911 is not a very common knock around car for the camping set, from my experience. Love it!

Don't have the beautiful scenery, but. Before we sold our coach and I quit riding bikes we did this.

Thanks!

I have PSE, just without the $800 Porsche PSE tips LOL!

The tips are from the standard exhaust with high heat matte black paint. Going to get it ceramic coated in black (when I have time)

It looks like you also have a tow vehicle for the Airstream other than the Tacoma.

So many great other vehicles on here. My E92 M3 pales in comparison.

I agree with the first part of your comment but not with the second. E93 M3 is a fine car.

Interesting that your other car is another sports car! And, thinking back over other responses, you're not alone.

Just got my wife another RX350 - her second. Agree it drives like a marshmellow. I hate driving it, but it has it's uses.

This was my second car until recently, when I realized I'm really not going to drive it anymore now that I have a 911 (911 has become the DD). Super fun car, but the 911 is better in every way, and it didn't make sense to have two cars that fill the same role. A Golf R still calls to me - but for now I love daily driving the 911.
