This is a picture of our camper that I got from the manufacturer's web site.  It is a 2001 Alpenlite.  The differences are that the stripes going around ours are kind of a maroon instead of a gray, our truck is a Ford F350 with a full back seat,  and theirs has "bathroom glass" in the upper door window.  I had a window put in that I could see through.  We bought this model because of all the windows so we could always have a good view.  I don't want glass in the door that I can't see through!  What good is a window if you can't see through it?  (When we bought the camper I told the salesman that the "bathroom glass" in the door had to go.  He said he would replace it.  Later on he started to complain because it wasn't cheap.  It had to be of safety glass as it was in a door.  I guess he learned to look before he leaps.) Below are pictures of our camper.  The picture on the left was taken in Leadville, Colorado.  Yep, that's me in the picture on the right with my bike.  That one was taken in San Diego, California.  The one at the bottom is our camper (you can see my husband's legs behind it) at Calico Ghost Town, California.  I even took pictures of the inside so you can go with me when I go on vacation. The dinette is what slides out.  When it is in it is like a regular camper, but when it slides out it gives you more floor space which makes my husband happy.  He is claustrophobic and when it is slid out then it makes him happy.   (When I am driving it is always slid in, of course.) The best thing about it is all the windows.  The bathroom is situated in the middle instead of the back corner.  It makes the interior feel so much more spacious!  I have windows all the way around the back end.  Sure, it cuts back on some storage but I am tricky and have found plenty of places to store things with room to spare. The camper is a 2001 model and a few things are starting to need repair.  We had to replace the igniter on the fridge.  I have to strip the caulking off the roof around all the joints and replace it.  The window shade in the front window over the bed lost a string so I will be replacing that with some curtains.  All in all, it is still in fine shape and we will be keeping it.  I told my husband that when we want to replace it I will contact the manufacturer and see if they will make a few changes to give me more storage in a few wasted spaces. I decorated the inside in a kind of American Indian/woodsy animal theme.  The upholstery was shades of browns and that kind of set the stage. This is also my family car.  I drive it to the store and everywhere else.  So, if you see my White Buffalo (that's what I named it) coming down the road at you... GET OUT OF THE WAY!  Just kidding!  If you see me coming down the road at you wave at me.
