A Load of Extra Camping Equipment
This article is for the picky loader – those who want everything that is best for their camping trip. Think everything fun, comfortable and luxurious.
Let us face it, some campers would not want to go out camping at all if they are not sure they would feel a lot at home. Some campers would not settle with just the basic camping equipment out there. We definitely understand that. Living in the wilds could be intimidating, and they need all the comfort they could get – even at the point of spending their whole paycheck on all of the best camping equipment they could find.
Everything, as in everything. The average loader would settle for the just the top necessities when it comes to camping, but the picky loader would go for everything that will make his vacation the best it could be. And the best it could be would mean bringing a load of extra camping equipment. Everything you will be needing from intricate lighters to portable DVD’s. If you want your camping trip to go an extra mile, then don’t forget these luxuries.
Not all types of camping are the same. Some are just as simple as going through the night in the outdoors, with the simple joys like stargazing. Some are challenged to go unharmed in an un-chartered territory. And some like to party-ay in the woods without a single care in the world. Nonetheless these things would be impossible if you happen to fail in packing the ultra needed camping equipment that go alongside your dreams and ideals of the perfect getaway in the ultimate outdoors. Here is the best you could get when it comes to camping.
1. Beer and loads of uncooked steak.
2. Recipes.
3. Wine glass.
4. Martini glass.
5. Champagne glass.
6. Champagne.
7. Ziploc bags.
8. Picnic towels.
9. Foldable furniture. Camping chairs and tables.
10. Coolers, even a portable refrigerator.
11. Blender.
12. Hibatchi grill or Coleman portable stove
13. Your own grilling smoky firewood.

Make a list of all the engaging activities you want to do on your camping trip, and then list down all, as in all you will be needing. It is not important if you come up with the longest list possible of camping equipment. The idea is comfort, and having fun.

Word Problem (The Luggage Rack) HELP PLEASE?
A family was about ready to leave on their camping trip. They loaded up their van with stuff, but it was getting really full with all kinds of equipment, plus five dogs. (Everyone had his or her own dog.) They were trying to decide whether to take the luggage rack for the top of the van to store some of their camping gear, or wheter they should just cram it all inside the van. Papa didn’t want to take the luggage rack because he said their gas mileage would be worse because of the increased drag. Mama said she didn’t want to be crowded inside the van, and she didn’t care how much it cost, she wanted to take it. Papa said they got 20 miles per gallon with the luggage rack off, and 17 miles per gallon with it on. Their destination was 3 hours away at 55 miles per hour with the rack off, but with the rack on they could only go 50 miles per hour. Gas cost $1.89 per gallon. How much more would it cost them to take the luggage rack, and how many extra minutes would it take them to get there?

extra .3 hours /w luggage (18mins)
$2.70 extra
but in real life, you dont think about this, it isnt worth it to have 5 dogs AND a wife howling

55 miles * 3 hrs = 165 miles.
165/20 mpg = 8.25 gal
165/17 = 9.70 gal
9.70-8.25 = 1.45 gal
1.45 gal * 1.89 per gal = $2.75
165/50 mph = 3.3 hours
3.3 – 3.0 = 0.3 hours
60/10 = 6 minutes in 0.1 hours
18 minutes in 0.3 hours
So $2.74 or 2.75 more and 18 minutes longer .
