Their reader complained that a company called ³BullEk Corp.² dba ³Diamond
Caverns Resort² is demanding that he pay quarterly maintenance fees ...

The most uncouth camper award of the year goes to.....
The people who pulled in next to me, and their friends across from, last night.
At 10:30pm I could hear a big commotion outside.... A huge diesel pusher was
stopped behind the trailer. A Horizon Itasca pulling a Chevy Avalanche. ...

Does anyone know of any good rv travel NG's??  This one appears to be
much more interested in who can blast which political party than which
motorhome is the best buy.

Well, I guess we can say we're full timers. We had our first big garage sale
this last weekend and because we had so much stuff in the driveway and pole
barn we decided to sleep in the MH Friday night. The house was such a
disorganized mess that on Saturday we said lets just move ...

If at home in FL, you may want to take a quick trip.. :)

I know this has been discussed before but I'm going to ask it again.
We have a 37 foot MH, gas rig with a GVWR of 21,500 lbs and GCWR of 26,000
lbs. Will we need a special DL if/when we move our residence to TX?
TIA.

We have been thinking for awhile about moving our two 12 volt deep cycle
batteries from their current location (front of our 20 foot trailer) to over
the wheels of the trailer (under the seat in the dining area).  My husband
wants to do this to get the weight off the tongue.  Has ...

We covered 6856 miles, 5925 of which was towing. Trailer weighs 7250 (give
or take a few) Truck: GMC 2500HD 6L, 4:10 rear end.. Carried 725# in bed of
truck. (give or take a few) plus the camper shell which weighs 265#
Speed observed most of the time (on the freeway) : 68 MPH.  ...

Rough roads claimed one of my wheel covers.

The three that are left have the 8 round holes around the outside,
raised center with 8 simulated lug nuts.

here use this method?
