Hi Gang,
I'm in Mercer PA and my destination is Knoxville, TN.

This deals with his misrepresentations about being inside Cambodia
during the Vietnam debacle.  Read the WSJ article and decide if there
is much difference between this gentleman and Mr. Clinton.

Doing some research on Waste disposal options came across an old product
called Thermasan.  Some of you folks may have memories or experience with
this product.  It was made by Thetford for a while and uses a macerator pump
to inject black water and gray water into your exhaust ...

I'm a newbie who posted a week or so ago about living in an RV year-round in
Flagstaff, AZ.  As expected there were a variety of opinions on the subject
and a few flames tossed back and forth.  After considering everything, I
think I could do it in a 35 ft. motorhome, at least for a ...

My fellow Americans and countrymen, it is with a heavy heart that I must
deliver the following news:  It has been determined by the Department of
Homeland Security, that the hurricane that hit Florida Friday, was not
simply an act of nature.  We now have concrete evidence the it was

So, we're looking at 5th wheels now (used market) and find that the styling
in older (late 80s to very early 90s) way more attractive than the more
recent stuff.  (Actually, my wife is head of that department.)  Don't ask

Aquamagic IV toilet?  So far all I've found by searching is new valves and

Hi friends from RORT!
I spent July near Mom's house near Chicago.  Then I'm pushing on spening a week
at each of three friends that I met in '49.  It takes me a week to travel
between their places one state apart.

Hi Gang,

Network.  I can't stay connected long enough to dial 611, to ask a question

We're taking a leisurely route from Ottawa to Prince Edward Island. We've
never been all the way around the Gaspe Peninsula and are thinking of doing
it starting August 21st. Question is, are there any switchbacks or whatever
on Hwy 132 that would be too tight for our 39 foot 5er? ...

OK, let's say I am plugged into shore or generator power and let's
also say that the battery is down on my pickup.
The question I have is would I be able to hook up and charge up my
pickup using the converter/charger on my fifth wheel?

Anyone have any comments about this membership RV organization?
Thanks
