    Process of buying Motorhome (Ontario)

    Buying the rv is exactly the same process in Ontario as a car. The only issue you may have is finding an authorized mechanic to complete and sign off the safety inspection. Try your local rv dealer or a transport company. Always check the dates for the tires as this is an expense to replace...

    AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT

    Thanks Gary, should have been more clear. Thinking about suspension, steering, electrical, brakes . Those kind of application specific for a 2001 unit for the motorhome. We agree with your statement about appliance and industry standard bits not being an issue.  Thanks  Larry

    Across Canada and back........

Our travels were 6 days and 5 nights from Picton to Banff. Western route was up to Sudbury. Then cross border into Michigan, Minnesota then up to...

    Looking for Florida Snowbird park that has activities and is fun. Ideas?

    we have been going to Sun RV resort in Citra for the last 4 years. Grand Lake has all this :  ""We have a desire to play cards, shuffleboard, karaoke, swim, bike ride, kayak and other things with other like minded seniors. A place with an activities director would be nice. We don't need to be on...

    Monthly RV Storage options at Florida campgrounds

    we leave ours in Brunswick  GA. for a few reasons. Easy access off of I95 heading south and depending where we wish to spend our next stop on the return southern  trip it is easy to plan a route ( east coast or west coast ). Check your insurance policy for the 6 month rider and enjoy.

    Battery charging while driving

    thanks all for the inputs, I will put a volt meter on the trailer today . Makes sense to unplug the 7 pin for overnight stops while in transit south. Larry

    Battery charging while driving

    The 5th wheel is plugged into the truck which is providing power  for the brake & running lights. When driving does the rv battery receive any charging from the truck alternator. Second question, when boon-docking without shore power, can the trailer draw power from the truck batteries if we are...
