My husband says if we have it plugged in and the heat on we do not need to winterize. I am not so sure about that. Don't want any burst water lines or problems with the water heater. We live in Coastal Washington where it is pretty temperate most times but the temperature can get down to...

Check out the Outdoors Rv models and the Northwoods models if your TV can take the weight. Their frames are built in house and are supposed to be well made. Sunnybrook gets high marks and Winnebago just came out with some TT. We are in the process of buying a Winnebago TT. My husband is 64 and...

update and thanks for the advice to call the dealer. My towing capacity is 7300 lbs so now i have a better idea what i can tow and what is too heavy.

yes, thnak you. I will make sure before I buy that I am not over my max and in fact keep it a little lower for safety.

great! thanks for your input. I live in the pacific northwest, so always have to factor in the mountains. I think I will stick to a choice between the Winnebago Minnie 2101 DS and the Lance 1985. Both have much lower gross weights and very similar floor plans.

sure, I can try. According to my owner manual for the truck, for my two wheel drive access cab (herein lies the problem, i am not sure which engine it is) for the 5VZ FE engine you cannot exceed 5000 gross trailer weight. For 2UZ-FE engine with tow package the weight adjusts to 7300. I currently...

will my 2003 tundra toy either of these tt?

We are getting ready to purchase a new Winnebago Minnie towable 2101 DS. Done a bit of research and my Tundra should tow this one okay. I have a 2003 Toyota Tundra. Wondering if anyone out there has any experience with this tt? I know they are pretty new. We like the floor plan and think...

Hello, I am new to the forum but have enjoyed reading it for a while now. My hubby and I are going to be doing some snowbirding when I retire (he is already retired) and we are interested in buying a tt. we currently have a 1978 fleetwood flair class c motorhome but want the convenience of...

Wow, I don't have a Shasta but I do have a 78 flair. It runs pretty good for being such an oldie. Have fun with your oldie.

hello! I am new to the forum also and am interested in learning lots before I start snow birding. I still work so will only be on here in the evening. Would love to pick your brain about Texas. My hubby sure wants to go to the Corpus Christie area one winter. It sound like yu did some wintering...

Hello, I am new to the forum but excited about being a part of it. I live in coastal Washington state and will be retiring soon. I want to do some snowbirding when I retire. I currently have an old (1978) Fleetwood Flair class C motorhome and have a plan to buy a new (to me) TT that I can tow...
