I'm a little late to the discussion so perhaps the OP has already got the info he needs. But from my experience having both a MiMo antenna and cellular signal booster the MiMo directional antenna has been more useful. It's worth trying especially since it costs a fraction of what a booster costs.

With few reviews that should tell you something.

I haven't used my WeBoost in a couple of years having replaced it with a MiMo antenna.

From my experience many tow vehicles are: Jeeps, some but not all, 4 WD pickup trucks Honda CRV, 2014 and prior. One exception will be the Ford Maverick front wheel drive pickup truck. The base engine model is 4 down towable but limited to a 2000 lb tow capacity. The beefer eco-boost engine...

Also consider that a car trailer must be stowed somewhere when you camp. Few campsites can accommodate a motorhome with attached car trailer. Same is true but to a lesser extent for a dolly. Also you must stow either when not using the motorhome. It's why more people tow 4 down.

It's not a crime to be a no show, but it does show respect for those who wish to use your campsite if you take the time to cancel. I book well in advance. I have found I have had to alter my travel plans in order to secure a reservation at a less desirable location because every site at my...

No shows at state parks are a problem, I've seen it. The problem is most states have turned their reservation system over to Reserve America and most parks within the Reserve America Reservation system have lost control over the reservations in their parks. Some can reserve empty sites to walk...

I quit buying oil filters at NAPA. Fleetguard branded filters bought at Cummins are cheaper.

You might also look up PatRicks in Ocala, just about a mile from Cummins in Ocala. They do good work but are expensive.

I use RV Trip Wizard for trip planning. The best I've seen.

I bought a WeBoost with the omni directional antenna several years ago. I found that it was marginally successful in boosting a cell signal. I saw this video: and bought the recommended MiMo directional antenna. It seems to work as good if not better than a cellular signal booster for a lot...

In the price range you're looking at you have a lot of options. When I was looking my first priority was floor plan so I stuck to those coaches that had the specific floor plan I was looking at. Like others have mentioned the higher end Monaco's/HR, American Coaches, Dutch Stars and Tiffin...

If the coach checks out, I think you're getting a very good deal. I bought a 10 yo American Coach, now 13 yo and love it. I've had very little engine issues but the house is another story. That's typical of an older DP. If you're handy and somewhat mechanically inclined you will find fixing...

Depending on how much you watch TV and if internet connectivity is important will answer your question on how to get TV on your RV. Many folks now are heavy uses of the internet and need constant or almost constant internet connectivity. For those folks a MiFi unit that broadcasts a WiFi signal...

The OP hasn't been back in awhile so maybe he's already bought one. But I'll put my 2 cents worth in. Concerning dealer or private I would suggest he find the RV he likes with the floor plan and quality that he wants. If it's at a dealer or private will not matter a year later when he's enjoying...
