There are plenty of bears around my area, so that's a huge concern for my family. We try to keep all of our food stuffs inside the RV's fridge so they don't attract wild animals like them. Our coolers are mostly for alcoholic beverages (I'm not a heavy drinker, mind you. My sister and mom just keep it for themselves). I haven't slept in a tent since I was like five or six, nor do I ever plan to again. My family used to have a pop-up trailer until we "upgraded" to a used 1976 Southwind RV back in 1998. Since then we've basically customized it to the best of our funds. We've redone most of the curtains, replaced all of the ceiling panels, and changed out the air conditioner and refridgerator.
