    Coachman Leprachaun

    Thanks, KD. Good advice all around. Forgot the name of their insulation product, but they claim it is mold resistant and is a better and lighter product than others in that regard. It also seems that there is a nod to a better insulated coach for a warmer experience in colder weather, but then...

    Coachman Leprachaun

    Okay, y'all. Hit me up with your likes/dislikes and so on :). We were vacillating between a TT and a class C. I wanted to pull something behind the Suburban, but then it just seemed like with weight restrictions and so on it might be a problem. We also have 4 kids still at home and a 100#...

    Large family: thinking of beginning with a TT or 5th, and then?

    Gordon we are Christians and have been in and out of ministry. We believe in miracles and do agree that even the Lord cares about our happiness (This is not a pro-greed type post). I think it's wonderful that you feel you were highlighted specific vehicles. And, I believe that we should consider...

    Large family: thinking of beginning with a TT or 5th, and then?

    Thanks Gordon! I think we are so uncertain as to which direction that we are beginning at the beginning: what is it we like about each type, what can do with/without, and then decide if the overall investment is best in scenario A, B, or C. Anyway, I like your approach to used coach and truck...

    Large family: thinking of beginning with a TT or 5th, and then?

    All good advice and questions. We just went to an RV show this past weekend. Actually stayed out of TT and 5th wheels except two in order to " get a feel" but otherwise looked almost exclusively at the Class models. Thing is: I'm with you all in that having to drive it then not be able to go...

    Large family: thinking of beginning with a TT or 5th, and then?

    Hi all! Maybe you can help alleviate a friendly spat here at home, but we are torn about where to begin. We have each fallen in like with either a Class C or a Class A....they are all inclusive. However, right now we still have four kids at home (14, 10, 8, and 4) plus three disinterested grown...

    Best way to store a lot of recipes in an RV

    Always the last thing a woman has time for in her life, honestly. We have so many associations with recipes: these when we were poor, those from when the kids were little, those from past generations, these to try... Whatever you do, save them to the cloud. A zip drive can drop in a toilet, a...

    Pet Health Insurance

    Consider what you can afford if you don't have insurance. Aside from one poster, everyone else seemed to agree that insurance has benefits. Banfield is nice, but sometimes they are like other "HMO" type insurance, their rules their guidelines. You can get pet insurance through some employers -...

    Choices, choices, choices

    Circe: so true! Thank you for your perspective. My goal in asking wasn't to be persuaded, per se, just to garner the sort of info that you, and others, have provided. Sometimes people try one rig type and for X reason it simply wasn't a good fit. I was looking for the X. In the anecdotal...

    Support memberships and insurance. Either/or? Both??

    Hi there! Had a query about two things. 1. What are some popular support memberships? For example, I've heard of Good Sam's club. When I go to their website it seems Greek to me. What does it offer, generally? What is the yearly cost? (Pay by month/year...or like insurance, billed?). Are...

    Flying from IN to FL to buy Class C and drive home. What should I pack?

    Hi there! If you can, please post a follow up either here or in a new thread. It would be amazing to hear what you did, what worked/what didn't, and how the entire process turned out for you. Even if you don't end up finalizing purchase it would be nice to know why. If it is more dreamy than...

    This one sounds interesting! It has some bunks, pull out beds, and two bathrooms. https://www.rvtrader.com/dealers/Bill-Plemmons-RV-World-Raleigh-2973332/listing/2017-Jayco-Precept-36T-121346992

    Choices, choices, choices

    Already these are amazing responses! I hadn't even thought about some of them. So, thank you! In terms of working from home:It really isn't pertinent to our travel other than we have the luxury of leaving a bit earlier on a weekend trip away :). We also have unlimited wifi/data so that's not an...

    Choices, choices, choices

    Howdy all. I realize making a choice for an RV can be like committing to fall in love with a house you've not lived in, but nonetheless we'd like to make mistakes anyway. Even still, deciding on WHICH RV to purchase is so daunting. I've read that some brands/levels have crappy exteriors or...
