Aloha Everyone -
I said that I would let you know the end result to those who responded
to my quest for help regarding the installation of a washer/dryer in
our Kountry Star travel trailer.

I will not say President Bush lies, but he sure is less than careful where he
gets his information. I'm not sure about Senator Kerry he can't seem to find
his plan and stick to it.  2004 looks like another vote for the least harmful
candidate.  A vote for Nader is just a wasted vote ...

We will be heading to Las Vegas for a Jimmy Buffett concert in Mid October
and were wondering if any body had any recommendations for RV parks in town.
We take along a Yamaha Riva 180 scooter with us for transportation so we

Man, it's a glorious day here at the McPhee Reservoir in SW Colorado.
70 degrees, blue skies, soft breezes, and a campsite overlooking the
reservoir.  I may be here another week.

I've been a Rand-McNally Tripmaker user for years (though I confess the
latest version I have is Tripmaker 2000 Deluxe). Now I'm looking for
something that specifically addresses RV issues: campgrounds, suitability of
roads, etc. I saw a reference to something like that on the Rand ...

Left today for a two week trip from NY to New Orleans. Three hours into the
trip on Interstate 78 the engine cuts out ( Cat 3126 330hp )as well as the

While waiting for them to call back, tried to start it ...

Can anyone recommend a dealer that rents RV's in the New England area. I live
in CT. Thanks...

Does anyone know what RV would be rated the best as far as mileage goes?
I'll be looking for a class B's or a smaller class C's and was wondering
what real-world numbers people were getting. I hear people talk about the
older Toyota and LeSharo RV's getting 15-20+ mpg, and the newer ...

I have a Yamaha EF3000ISEB unit with about 20 hours runtime. Used it at
various speeds/amps last weekend to run 15kw AC as well as normal RV
electrics.
The manual says change the oil at 20 hours - is it too soon for synthetic

Interesting article on double registration and voting in NY and FL by
some of the "snowbirds".

Hi group,
Does anyone know of reasonably priced [daily/weekly] public trailer park
in/near Delaware state? Something like a county or state campground? We are
traveling from the south up I95 and hoping to do statewide "stuff". Any help

We really want to get into the TT world, and out of tent-camping. We
have a 6 and 4 year old, and live in Montana, so lots of camping
opportunities, but so much work and dirt when tent camping, we'd like
to be able to "hook and go" more often.
