  1. The $550 was the C2C buy in cost not the deeded site purchase cost. I subsequently bought in to C2C through Southern Trails.
  2. I own a deeded site in a rv park that offers Coast to Coast classic. My buy-in is $550 plus $89 per year. Amortizing the cost over 5 years, I only need to use the system 7 nights a year to be at break-even. However, if I purchase a deluxe membership from Southern Trails RV park i Georgia, the buy-in is approximately $1,000 with an annual fee of $249 (park and C2C fees). Amortizing the cost over 5 years requires using the system 18 days a year. I'm wondering is the additional cost of getting a deluxe membership worth it. Does the 90 day window to make a reservation versus a 60 day make that much of a difference? I'm not sure that I will know our plans that far out. Also, I'm not sure that I want to spend more than 7 days in any one park. Just inquiring what others have found. I will also get Passport America and use Escapee parks. We will also use state parks and national forest campgrounds. Dave
  3. I have researched the benefits and differences between the deluxe and classic coast to coast memberships and I understand the differences. The major differences being that with a deluxe membership you can stay at deluxe parks for 14 days rather than 7 and you can book 90 days out rather than 60 days. My question for those who have (or have had) a coast to coast membership, is is worth paying the extra to have a deluxe membership over a classic membership? Your input and experience is appreciated.

  4. sushidog: I pull a 9,000 lb trailer with a 3/4 ton diesel. I get 12 to 13 mpg. However that is in the Midwest and not going through the rocky mountains. I have a friend who pulls a 8,000 lb trailer with a gas Suburban 2500. He gets 9 to 10 mpg pulling; again in the Midwest. Hope this helps. Dave
  5. imadtchmn: It's exciting to get a new RV especially an upgrade to a four season unit. Pictures look great. Dave
  6. imadtchmn: Just today I was reading about the same problem on the Airstream forum. Here is a link to the thread and their suggested solutions. Dave
