    Taking the Texas class B non CDL drivers test

    I finished up the requirements on Tue, and I assure you the concerns about scheduling the test were waaayyyy harder than was the test itself.  All I had to do was essentially drive around the block a couple times and back up about 20 feet.  Before we moved, the examiner wanted to check all my...

    R/C or full scale pilots

    Looks like this topic has died down a bit, but just thought I'd join in and see if we can revive it. I've been a modeler since the mid 60s, and for the last six years have been heavily into RC helicopters.  They span blade sizes from 200mm to my newest 717mm VTX blades.  We had our first...

    We are new to the forum, not RVing

    Hi everyone.  As my wife and I are new to this forum, I thought we would just introduce ourselves.  I'm Ralph, and she's Sallie.  We have been RVing since 2000.  We started out in a Winnebago Journey that we purchased new in 2000.  While it was technically an entry level model, it was...

    Lithium install *cheaper* than lead-acid?!

    I am an avid RC heli flier, and typically run two packs in series (6 cells in each pack and two packs in series).  Lipo batteries are very sensitive to over charging and (at least for my specific application) require dedicated chargers for their specific type of chemistry. What happens during...

    Taking the Texas class B non CDL drivers test

    I sure wish someone would (could) explain how something that is required (getting a Class B non commercial license) is so hard to try to get scheduled.  The referenced link about this subject specifically states that to schedule the skills test one must e-mail the office and request an...

    Texas Class B RV license

    I just went down to the DL office to get the handbook for this written.  I'm not sure that I took the correct test.  I filled out the form to signify I need the RV part, but everything I got from the office says CDL.  I think I took the CDL written, as it asked several things with regards to...

    Desert AutoPlex

    As luck would have it, I received my documentation via e-mail today.  I faxed it to my local tag office and they confirmed that was what I needed.  So I am happy that I can register my RV now.

    Desert AutoPlex

    I just now looked at the BBB ratings and see a LOT of what I have happening to me.  Found a RV with them and worked out a trade for our current RV.  Completed the paperwork on the trade on October 12, 2016.  We drove our RV out to trade, and found that several items on the new RV had not been...

    PPL in Houston??

    My wife and I just looked at a really clean 2009 Allegro Bus with a 425 Cummins, Tag, and good clean interior.  We put in a offer, set up a test drive and after the test drive were told to stay as long as we liked and check out everything.  At that point, without the dash air working, it soon...

    Been Rv'in 16 years, new to the forum

    Hi all.  My wife and I purchased our first Rv, back in 1984.  It was a Rockwood 1280 popup camper.  Sometime around 2000, we got the urge to get a motorhome, and purchased a 2000 Winnebago Journey.  We have made many a memorable trip in it over the years, but it was starting to develop some...
