Micah Archer · Answer 1

It shows that the camper meets all the author's travel needs.

Explanation:

The description of the camper in this passage is mainly to reinforce the utility of the vehicle. Every aspect of the design that is mentioned is practical and would a specific use on the road.

The author may be fussy, but ordering a specialized camper is not an indication of that. It is also unlikely that the author designed the camper since the specifications were sent to him.
