Any recommendations for resturaunts in the Gettysburg area? I'm taking Dad
down to Gettysburg for an overnight tomorrow. He's never been there even
though he studied the battles that took place there as part of his military
career. I've been there twice before, but ate all of my ...

I was a novice when I bought my new Discovery. I had looked at several
makes, drooling all over them but not feeling that I could afford the
one I wanted. Then I had a friend tell me about Earnhardt RV in Mesa,
AZ. I checked them out on line and requested a quote. I immediately

Having already lived through the misfortune of "running out of propane
without realizing it," I am wondering if anyone might know of a device,
such as a meter (inline) that can be attached to the propane hose(s),
permitting one to measure the amount of propane that is contained in a

Is anyone planning to attend the RV show in Hershey PA this weekend?
We haven't been to the PA show (held in Harrisburg previously) for many
years.  Planning to take our RV so that we can do a 'test' since we
haven't used it for a while.  Expensive for a dry overnight (I think I

I just picked up a rental car from Hertz to drive to pick up my new 18
wheeler.  I paid for it with my debit card.
Another RORT myth busted - the one about not being able to rent a car
with a debit card.  You debit card haters will have to come up with

I think it's time to start a *real* RV thread. The politics are OK, but I
didn't come here for that. Apparently, neither did a few that
are........growing impatient, let's say.
OK. The RV consumers group takes some polls, some reviews, and posts an

Than I was told....
Did I mention I hate salesmen.

Also, the specs are wrong:  It has a 75 gallon fresh water tank, 16 inch

My trailer need some new weather stripping. The stuff that's on there is "T"
shaped, with the horizontal part of the "T" slightly bowed. One side of the
top is flexible, the other side is rigid with a bead of some soft silicone
looking stuff near the edge. It is screwed to the edge ...

I had been putting off calling HWH on my slide problems, as you suggested,
because I couldn't get time to be at the RV for troubleshooting during
business hours to make the call. Yesterday, I finally went to the URL you
posted (I missed seeing the link when you posted it but ...

Yet another really dumb newbie question...
I decide to bite the bullet and buy a generator for dry camping -
likely a Honda EU2000I or equivalent (Yamaha , Onan, or Coleman). The
Coleman 1850 is the least expensive.

We will be stopping overnight near Tallahassee on our way to Disneyworld.
Does anyone know of a good one-night stay campground somewhere near
Tallahassee -- preferably not too far off of I-10?
I found the Chattahoochee KOA which is right near the interstate close to

Does anyone have a good driving route to take from Syracuse NY to Ocala Fl
without all the hills in PA and on 81 south around Roanoake. We had some
problems with our Van overheating on the hills and would really like to avoid
as many as possible. Appreciate any help. I was thinking ...

What is the best way to go on a new coach with clear coat: Polish alone:
polish and wax?
This is going to be a long term investment and I don't want to have a
faded 55 Chevy in five years.

Seen here in Bay Mills. I've said before that my choice of Motor Home
over 5th wheel is partly because I want a small "around town" vehicle.
These folks have at least one solution!

See lots of talk about Good Sam but are there any concrete benefits to
belonging?
