I just finished a camping trip with my family. Growing up I did a lot of wilderness camping, just sleeping under the stars. My parents have taken my kids to local lakes for the past few years to camp in tents. However, age has made it difficult for them to go camping. So my father purchased a nice pop-up camper. It was my task to give it a trial run. They purchased it as a bank repo so it did not come with any instructions. Aside from two left over poles that I couldn’t find a use for except threatening my children for driving me crazy at the time, it went together nicely. I was amazed at the luxury built into the camper. It has AC, heater, small portable fans, and heated mattresses. Of course it also had the standard kitchenette. It almost takes the ‘camp’ out of camping.  That first night I began to wonder about something like that as an emergency survival pod.  Just add an airlock, sturdier walls and a deck of playing cards and a box of dominos along with a case MRE’s and some solar cells to recharge the batteries and you're good to go.
