It’s a struggle for sure. They also had a 2 year old and 2 dogs plus a bunch of stuff in that little thing. And it’s a 3rd car for them that they only use for camping or when one of their other cars break down because it has the highest towing capacity of the three (it’s a pre-CVT Subie).
My bet is that over time they will upgrade as they can afford to. It’s a tight squeeze in that little camper for 2 adults, a child and 2 dogs. But they love to camp.
I’ve noticed that what seems to happen over time is that people who love to camp start with tents, progress through various smaller campers until they finally end up with a 5th wheel. We’re about 80% of the way through that journey. And this week I found myself browsing 1-ton pickups. Lol. Not in the cards for a while because I want the top of the line and prices are insane.

Yeah...
I like to 4x4 camp, with no other people in the area.
The wife, well she refused to pee in a hole... lol
I even had a slick setup using my grill gaurd on the s10.
I have a motorhome project that got sidelined by the tahoe, it has a bathroom and shower... lol
And i see that little canned ham, and I'm thinking it's ok for husband and wife, but kids and dogs?!
Oh hell no!
And a neighbor of mine took my idea and ran with it.
He had a truck just to haul their camper.
They sold the truck and camper, got a motorhome instead.
Then replaced the truck with a Subaru.
His truck was cool too, iirc it was an F250.
Sad to see it replaced with a Subaru.
But the Subaru fits his personality more... lol
It's also in your vehicle owners manual page 519-520:
Resetting the TPMS Identification Codes
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identification
code. Any time you rotate your vehicle’s tires or
replace one or more of the TPMS sensors,
the identification codes will need to be matched to
the new tire/wheel position. The sensors are
matched to the tire/wheel positions in the following
order: driver’s side front tire, passengers side
front tire, passengers side rear tire, and driver’s
side rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic tool.
See your GM dealer for service.
The TPMS sensors may also be matched to each
tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing
the tire’s air pressure. If increasing the tire’s
air pressure, do not exceed the maximum inflation
pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
You will have two minutes to match the first
tire/wheel position, and five minutes overall to
match all four tire/wheel positions. If it takes longer
than two minutes, to match the first tire and
wheel, or more than five minutes to match all four
tire and wheel positions the matching process
stops and you will need to start over.
The TPMS sensor matching process is outlined
below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to RUN with the
engine off.
3. Using the DIC, press the vehicle information
button until the RELEARN TIRE POSITIONS
message displays. If your vehicle does not
have the DIC buttons, press the trip odometer
reset stem located on the instrument panel
cluster until the RELEARN TIRE POSITIONS
message displays.
4. If your vehicle has the DIC buttons, press the
set/reset button. The horn will sound twice to
indicate the TPMS receiver is ready, and
the TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message will
display. If your vehicle does not have the DIC
buttons, press and hold the trip odometer
reset stem until the horn chirps twice and the
TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message is
displayed.
5. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
6. Remove the valve cap from the valve cap
stem. Activate the TPMS sensor by
increasing or decreasing the tire’s air pressure
for five seconds, or until a horn chirp
sounds. The horn chirp, which make take up
to 30 seconds to sound, confirms that the
sensor identification code has been matched
to this tire and wheel position. To decrease
air-pressure out of a tire you can use the
pointed end of the valve cap, a pencil-style air
pressure gage, or a key.
7. Proceed to the passenger’s side front tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 6.
8. Proceed to the passenger’s side rear tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 6.
9. Proceed to the driver’s side rear tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 6.
10. After hearing the confirming horn chirp for the
driver’s side rear tire, the horn chirp will sound
two more times to signal the tire learning
mode is no longer active. Turn the ignition
switch to LOCK.
11. Set all four tires to the recommended air
pressure level as indicated on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
12. Put the valve caps back on the valve stems
The spare tire does not have a TPMS sensor.
If you replace one of the road tires with the spare,
the SERVICE TIRE MONITOR message will be
displayed on the DIC screen. This message should
go off once you re-install the road tire containing
the TPMS sensor.

I moved to Richmond from Colorado in 2020 to get married, and while I miss Colorado, I love it here too. We’re 90 minutes from the beach and 90 minutes from the blue ridge mountains with a ton of rivers and lakes to choose from as well. Lots of farmland in the area and home prices are about 2/3 that of Colorado. We will go back to Colorado once the kids are in college, but for now Virginia is a pretty great place to live. I wouldn’t care to live in the DC area, however.

I can't get mine into learn mode through the DIC, I have to use the key fob.
Also, step 1, applying the parking brake isn't a necessary step in the procedure, only for safety. I've never set the parking brake when doing mine. Motor is off and vehicle is still in park on my level driveway, lol
Yeah you know how the owners manuals are. They can save about a hundred pages of warnings if they just say "DON'T DO STUPID SHIT" at the beginning.

I did the learn thing when I first got this thing.
It was due for a tire rotation, so I re-programmed the sensors.
I also have that little tool to trigger the sensors, I don't know if it's even needed.
but it was like $7 and it seems to do things.
I didn't know that it could also learn new sensors too, so that's handy.

My AutoSync arrived a day early!
Now if it would just stop raining (severe weather in the area this afternoon) I could go out and play with it.
