  2. When I first started I had a 5th wheel toy hauler. I was full time and the garage was wasted living space. I also traveled alone and unloading down the ramp on the back of the fiver was a little dangerous for me alone. After a few years traveling I purchased a Class A Diesel pusher and had a Hydralift welded onto the frame. I had no problem traveling with my Harley riding on the Hydralift with my Jeep pulled behind.

    I sent a reply and now it's gone.  

    I object to Escapees having this kind of HOP.

    You have the right to object but others have the right to enjoy this. You do not need to attend, participate or even concern yourself with this HOP. No different to someone objecting to anything involving the clothing optional Buff HOP, which could also be fun and nobody would be carrying concealed.

  4. It's not BLM land but is a National Park. I camp hosted at Cottonwood Campground in Teddy Roosevelt NP. Bison came thru the campground almost every day, usually in the morning. Wild horses would occasionally skirt the outer perimeter.  The horses, and Bison,  can be seen daily through out the park from the road, without getting out of your car as you drive beyond the campground. The horses are a little more shy than the Bison.

  5. I dated a woman who was born and raised in Russia and emigrated to America as an adult and became  US citizen.  I asked her about so called free health care. Her reply was that it was a joke. In her words, "You could not get an appointment for several months. By that time you were either dead or no longer sick. Even if you got in all the Dr did was percribe an Rx and nobody could afford to fill the perscription." She said salaries were half what they are in the US and the cost of goods was double.

  6. All clubs are getting smaller. Elks, Eagles, VFW, Amer Legion etc. as well as RV clubs, Good Sam, FMCA etc.  Everyone is now using the internet to socialize.  Also it's a lot about money. The clubs are in it to make a profit. Members join for the benefits.  Last time I tried to stay at an Elks Lodge they wanted $35 to park in their lot with no hookups when the campground across the street was $45 for full hookup and a pool. I tried to get tires and a new window using FMCA and Escapees discount programs and got a better price going direct thru the seller. Good Sam is mostly only good for a one night 10% discount at a campground. The cost of clubs is going up and the benefits are going down.

  7. Before I bought my Class A I had a 5er toy hauler with 3 axels and 6 tires. Had 2 blow outs within the first 4 months. Had the remaining 4 tires inspected and was told that 2 were ready to blow and the other 2 were unsafe. All were China bombs. Replaced all 6 with Michelin XBS Ribs. Ran another 5 years with no problems.

  8. Do you have any other loans, credit cards etc. What address do you use for them or your banking? If you already have credit using an address, just use that address on the loan app. That address is going to show up on the credit reports. As far as, "do you own or rent", you are not renting your RV, so check own,  if it's financed that your mortgage.

    As to getting your own loan or going thru a dealer, as said above, shop around for the best rate first, then give the dealer a try. The dealer gets a commission on the financing and will try really hard to get you the best rate. I also negotiate for a lower price on the vehicle I'm buying since the dealer is getting a commission on the financing.
