    "I would give first priority to those areas that are NOT infected by "urban covid refugees".  "

Just wondering what this statement means.

If you're looking for a summer lot we're selling ours in Colorado.  It's at 9400' and in an absolutely beautiful area with a great community.  It's somewhat remote, halfway between Gunnison and Montrose but has a lodge with rooms to rent, restaurant, bar, bands on weekends, Fire department (Firewise community), security patrol, community dump station, etc.  Our lot is the only lot available that has full hookup with 50 & 30 amp, great water system, septic tank, DSL internet, and a 12x12' shed with double doors for UTV/ATV storage. $90,000.00

Here's the listing:   https://www.tamarackatarrowhead.com/-/listing/CO-MAOR/785950/251-Balsam-Road-Cimarron-CO-81220?display_page=1&index=14&lpp=20&total_listings=14&ss_id=300449034&from=saved_search

We're buying a cabin here.

I'd the same people who trash campsites anywhere are the same disgusting ones who throw trash in the men's urinal. What is wrong with people?

Just be aware of Hwy. 50 closures:        https://www.us50info.com/

I've been using a SpotX since 2019, upgraded from a Spot for our Alaska trip.  It has worked everywhere we've tried it.  I typically just activate it when we're traveling.  

Propane is at a higher pressure than natural gas so it will cause problems, possibly a fire.  Look for a propane residential range.

Back in the day when I worked 7/7 offshore I was in a book of the month club. Had tons of hardback sci-fi books.  Sadly over the years and especially when we went full-time I had to get rid of them. Asimov, Andre Norton, PK Dick were some of my favorites. 

But of all of those the ones I truly miss are the classic novels I grew up with: Tom Sawyer, Huck, Treasure Island.  

Nowadays everything I read is on my phone. 

Hey Kirk, you should go to Newell's webpage and watch some of the videos of driving their new coaches.  Not self driving but heading in that direction. 

Hide your checkbook first....

Always take a picture with your phone or camera of the map at the trailhead. 

And consider carrying something like a Spot device to call for help when you get in trouble. A Spot or other satellite device could save your life and get help to you quickly.

We had the same need to be available as you Bill.  We chose to buy a SpotX text messenger.  The service plans are reasonable and it allowed us to stay in touch while on our Alaska trip.  

CO is different than CO2. Mars has a different environment than earth.

Since Dometic now owns Atwood, not sure if they have changed or will continue to produce the Atwood units.  Some friends who bought the Atwoods before the buyout were very pleased with the performance and low noise.  Best feature was the 2 separate fans, compressor and blower, since the blower could run continuously.  So IF Dometic hasn't changed the Atwood design I'd look closely at it.

The hike from the parking lot at Horseshoe Bend is through deep loose sand, so a bit difficult.

Years ago we took a small guided hike to Canyon X.  Just 4 of us and an elderly guide.  Awesome to see and experience the canyon without the crowds.  Not sure how it is today but then it was a moderately difficult hike down into and back up the canyon.

Wires for a trailer and for a toad are wired differently.  Etrailer.com has wiring diagrams showing the differences.

GlennWest, any links to more info for your Chinese step up transformer?

Depends on which Victron unit you're trying to set up.  BMV-712 has bluetooth so you can set it up like that.  I just installed a Multiplus 3000 and used the MK-3 to program it with since it doesn't have bluetooth.

Just a reminder as people are starting to plan their summer travels in and through Colorado.  Hwy 50 between Gunnison and Montrose will have an ongoing project with daily closures for 2 years starting soon.  If you can it would be best to avoid Hwy 50 through this area.  See the below for more info.

Check your pms.

Anywhere from $1000 to $1,000,000

Please be more specific, size, diesel/gas, age preference, budget, etc.

Another thing to look for with an older coach is an active owners forum.

I've owned 2 Newells and now have an older Foretravel.  Both have very active owners forums with most of the info you'll ever need readily available online.  Much better than some of the Facebook groups where you have to ask a question then wait for others to answer then filter through the incorrect answers.

The monies from those subsidies will only get spent somewhere else.

I'm not one who buys a new car and the used cars I buy usually hang around for 10 years or so.  So I'm not in the demographic to buy an EV.  At least not for another 5 years or so.  These discussions are interesting to me.  What I really want is to program my car to drive across Texas while I sleep or read....

No, we do not love ethanol.  Ethanol was forced onto the American public by our gov't. listening to enviros.  Ethanol is a boondoggle that has resulted in the price of foodstuffs to rise, fuel economy and fuel costs to rise.  Now if ethanol were replaced with methanol (we do have the technology now to overcome the problems with meth.) it would make more sense.  Methanol can be produced from waste products.

Or maybe lots of people enjoy shooting firearms as a sport?

Or would like to have the ability to protect themselves if the need ever arises?

Certainly not paranoia for either case, just your opinion. 

If you're truly afraid of the dark then please stay home. Or at least don't park next to me. Don't try to make your campsite into your home. BTW there are stars and constellations up there. If you turn your lights off you can actually see the Milky Way.

dlundby, what is the Gb limit/month if any?  

That is something that is never mentioned but is an important part of the puzzle.
