My living situation has changed drastically and I need a place to live.  Currently I live in NJ, I'm a few miles from Giant's Stadium, but I'd like to live walking distance from the ocean and I'm willing to move anywhere from Rhode Island to Key West and Anywhere in California. It's just me and...

Hi everyone. I can't believe it's been a year since I got the Beast and joined this forum.  I'm thinking about selling the Beast and I was wondering if I could get some advice.  I have a 95 Fleetwood Flair (28 ft, class A) and I'm thinking about getting a 5th wheel.  I've never sold a...

I'm checking out the sites and this is great.  Thank  you

Gary, Thank you.  This is exactly what I was looking for.

I'd like to get a job working (primarily office/reservations) in an RV park, but I'm not sure how to go about finding one.  It occurs to me that these jobs are probably found through word of mouth and not from print ads in newspapers. I have 12 years of experience working as a manager in the...

I think I've posted about this in the past, but now I need help and I'm asking if there is someone out there who can help me with this. I know I'm an idiot.  I don't know anything about cars or mechanical things and this RV is the first vehicle I've ever owned that I didn't buy new.  I'm...

I'm also trying to figure out a cheap way to live in my RV.  I think on the advantages newbies have is everything in an RV is a luxury.  I'm so accustomed to driving cars and only have a cooler, a DVD player. I've parked over night in Food & Fuels, WalMarts, on the street on the Jersey shore...

I have a 95 Fleetwood Flair with a spare tire attached to the back.  I need to transport my scooter (it's 450 pounds) and I can't afford to pay much to do it. Safety is first.  I am a single female and need something that I can rig on my own.  My biggest fear is that the scooter will fall while...

OKay, I had an idea this would cause some discussion. When I started in car rental, I worked in Beverly Hills for one of those luxury rental companies.  That's where I learned about the "equal car of equal value."  I worked there for about 8 years.  Then I moved to NJ.  We have no fault...

Well, I need to move and now it is immediate.  I'm getting a dog and the dog isn't allowed in the house where I currently live.  Of course there is more to it than just that, but the dog makes the move necessary and almost immediate. I'm driving to Florida to get the pup and plan to leave NJ on...

It wasn't my fault.  I was in a parking lot and stopped at a stop sign.  Some genius decided to go around me on the right (driving into a vacant parking spot to do it) and when I made my turn, I swiped her car.  She was screaming it was my fault, but thankfully there were witnesses and I also...

To back up my files, I simply created an email account with gmail.  I email the files to myself at that account and it is like a virtual filing cabinet.  I can access the files from any computer anywhere, which has saved me more times than I can count. I also use memory sticks to back up files...

Before I took the leap, I did a lot of research and I was also completely overwhelmed by everything that needed to be done. I read all the articles and printed a lot of them.  The truth is, it isn't that hard at all.  I've stayed in 3 RV parks, so I've hooked up and unhooked 3 times.  From the...

I checked it out and it looks great.  I'm not limiting myself to Florida.  I'm willing to live anywhere on the east coast (Carolinas, Georgia, Virginia) or anywhere on the gulf (Alabama, Mississippi, etc). I'm planning to drive to Florida, but I think once I get south of Virginia Beach, I'm...

I don't know if this is the right forum, but it is a newbie question, so I figure ... I'm getting ready to move and I'm in a position to go anywhere.  I newly single and, though I do need a job, I earn just enough from teaching online to keep me going. I didn't realize how expensive it is to...
