    Pre-owned Class A pitfalls

    There are a lot of good used MH's out there. If it were me I would take a hard look at overall condition and odors. Look at key areas where the previous owner may have worked on the MH himself. Find a good mechanic who can give you advice. Any signs of abuse or poor workmanship I would pass!

    55+ parks ??

    We have a home in a 55+ community in Florida and our covenants reads that  the majority have to have at least one member of the household 55 or older. No children under 18 can live there for more than 30 days. I think RV parks with 55+ rules simply are telling us their park and amenities are...

    Tolls/Fast Pass

    Here's my take......... EZ pass is not in Florida. Florida uses Sun Pass. Many states including Florida and Colorado are now simply taking a picture of your license plate and sending you a bill. Simple if you are home but if you are on an extended trip and don't get mail regularly you could face...

    FLYING J/PILOT

    I  use their rewards RV card ( 3 cents off on diesel 1 cent on gas) I don't use their credit card. I pay with another card for other points. Flying J/Pilot always gives the cash price because of the RV card. I like the truck pumps as I fill faster and no limits. I am considering using my COSTCO...

    FLYING J/PILOT

    Every Pilot/Flying J I have stopped at between Florida and Oregon has been just fine with me. If I stop at the RV Islands I have to leave my card inside or live with swiping it more than once as they stop at $75 or $100. At the truck islands I swipe my advantage card first and pump all I want...

    50 amp hookups at Winnebago service center

    Hopefully they factor the electric costs into their labor rates but if not maybe they should consider a $5-$10 per nite fee?

    Looking for a Part

    I agree John but if it's necessary to expedite a part, the fastest way I know is call the dealer in Forest City.

    Looking for a Part

    Call the Winnebago dealer in Forest City. If they don't have the part they will walk over to the factory and pick it up and ship it next day or same day.

    Voluntary repossession

    One more time. Deal with the management of your bank to find out what they will or will not do. None of us dime store attorneys here are going to help you financially. So it would be very wise to seek professional advice.

    Retirement / Cost saving Ideas

    The number one thing is to keep the wife working!!!!!!!!!!!  Just kidding folks. :o For us it is keeping taxes as low as possible. Big reason we moved to Florida. A lot of old folks here so it's impossible for tax increases of any significance to get voted in. I understand the draw to live...
