  1. Hello HERMITS. LOLOLOL, well for a while. We are not full timers, long timers. With the CDC advise NO UNNECESSARY TRAVEL, and Florida State officials Don't know who they are,THAT CAMPERS SHOULD STAY PUT. we are staying put. We are in Bushnell, Fl, Red Oaks Rv Resort. Not to far from Sumter Oaks a Escapee park. But no visiting. We are comfortable, Living in a 40' LandMark Mesa 5th wheel, all the stuff we need to stay put. Washer/dryer, 4 door fridge. 2 good a/c's and all the other goodies. This is a large park, over 1300 sites, of course its never full, but gets real busy in the snowbird season. Al lot of folks have left already, its getting to be a ghost town around here. All the parks clubhouses pools etc have closed, but we still have a great time. For being HERMITS, we have a good life. Say safe out there. Have a pleasant day Bill
  2. Good morning everyone. Well what a time we are going through in this country nd the world. Because of what is happening out there. The CDC advises NO UNNECESSARY TRAVEL, and the Florida State Officials, don't know who they are Advise all campers to stay put. We have decided to stay put here in central FL. We are at Red Oaks Rv Resort, in Bushnell, FL. Not to far from Sumter Oaks Rv Park, a Excapee park. We know what we have here. I 75 is running at 40/50% normal traffic. Which would be expected. Since all the tourism things are closed. A lot less big truck traffic, also expected since China is not producing product. Once things settle down we will head back home to MO.? What are other folds doing? Stay safe out there, Have a pleasant day Billl
  3. HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone.
  4. Hello everyone. What a neat thread. Thanks Kirk. A little history about Brenda and I. We are seniors. I am 75, Brenda is 69. We have been together for 2 1/2 years. My wife passed away a little over 6 years ago. Brenda is from nasty divorce 3 years ago. We were introduced by my next door neighbors. AND WE ARE HAVING THE TIME OF OUT LIVES. In Oct. I decided to sell my class C Thor morotcoach Chateau 31W 32 long. Wanted something larger. Because we had decided to be snowbirds in FL. Found a 5th wheel on Facebook Marketplace. A 2013 Heartland Landmark Mesa, 40', 3 slides.This unit was on consignment at a dealer about an hour away. When we went to look at it. We could not believe what it looked like. Looked brand new. Lightly used. It had sat for a year,. The tag told us that because ti was a year out of date. Found 4 minor issues. Easy fixes. Perfect for 2 people. We ave just started out adventure together snowbirds in ]FL from Oct. to April. This summer we plan on hitting the road to where??????? The unit has full bodied paint, dual pane windows, w/d, 4 door fridge. I had to put new tires on it. This past June when at the Heartland North American rally in Goshen, IN. I had disc brakes installed OOOOO what a great upgrade. We have been told so man times not to get rid of this unit. Because it is one of the last of the good ones built by Heartland, because Thor bought Heartland. No issues with it with the miles we have on it . 15k in the past year. And we love the lay out. Now the best part. I have Age Related Macular Degeneration. I have lost 90% of my central vision. Brenda does all the driving. And yes she can back it up into a site. We love the rv life style. to use a quote from above. Not full timers, but long timers.
  5. Hi NDBirdman. Bill here. No not all places are full in FL. We stay at Red Oaks Rv Resort in Bushnell, FL. Very large park. 3 heated pool, 4 club houses, lots of activities, 1150 sites. Its located in a rural area. Bushnell has a population of 3100. 20 miles from Brooksville, 20 miles from Leesburg, 20 miles from Inverness, 20 miles from he Villages, an hour from Tampa and Orlando. We love it there.We have so much fun. Give them a call.352/793/7117 I do not work for the park. I will not get anything by telling you about the park
  6. Carlos. Man I feel so sorry for you. I have some friends who had bought a new Heartland Landmark, 2017. 9 months later they traded it for a 2018 Heartland Big Horn, because of all the issues on the Landmark.The couple next to us at the Heartland North American rally in Goshen IN this past June. They bought a 2019 Landmark, 4 days earlier, on the drive from MI to IN part of the kitchen fell down. We stumbled on a great deal. We have a 2013 Landmark Mesa,40', 3 slides. I don't remember how many times we have been told. DON'T GET RID OF IT, YOU HAVE ONE OF THE LAST OF THE GOOD ONES. After haring so many stories about the quality we have decided that we will maintain this Landmark and drive if till we cannot go on the road. Thor bought Heartland around that time frame. It is a same that you buy a rig and you can't even take it the road. I wish you well, Carlos.
  7. Hi chief916 We were at the 2019 Heartland North American Rally in Goshen, IN in June. One of the things I herd a couple of times, was the same issue you have. A frame issue. Check with Heartland They have been fixing some rigs at their expense. They are aware of the issue. Bill
