Larry N, I am not trying to nitpick, however, before you are sure about any Colorado Drivers License restriction, I suggest you again carefully look at your Colorado License. Take time to notice No 12, "Restrictions". Even if it says "none", then look at "Vehicle Restrictions" usually just below...

I suggest everyone read, or re-read, Kevin Means comments. I am now retired after 40 years as police Detective,  Chief of Police, and County Undersheriff. My experience matches Kevin's. My experience covering serious auto crashes matched our State Wide Averages over the years I was on duty...

Everyone has their opinion on this subject, depending upon their equipment and their experience. I do too. Over the past 55+years, pulling five different RVs, plus a few Ranch Trucks, using 8 different 250 to 3500 size trucks, both gas and diesel, I have noticed a few MPG variations under...

I say "Carbon Footprint" is one of the Greenies term for their scam. Every living thing is composed of Carbon with other elements. Carbon is not a pollutant no matter what propaganda is spouted. Now that the scammers have about gotten all they can out of the Carbon and Carbon Dioxide scam...

This is just for general information since the Purchase above is done. We have a current total of six RAM pickup truck on our ranches, Manual and Auto transmissions. We have never had a problem with either type of transmission. Each have their advantages and disadvantages. We live in the...

We do not store our RV more than a few weeks at a time at home. However, we regularly drive it to a commercial Truck wash and have it washed and waxed by professionals when it needs it, usually on our way home from a trip.

As a rancher and Truck business owner, my wife and I use our RV for both business and pleasure nearly every month of the year. some trips are strictly for business and some for pleasure. For a number of years we have had Good Sam, now National General Insurance. Years ago I changed from State...

We have owned three makes of generators with our last three RVs.  Our current Monty carries two Yamaha generators, connected. We like the Yamaha better than the previous Hondas based on its convenience  design. However both are excellent generators. When selecting any generator I suggest that...

We have owned five RVs since 1960. Before 1960 my wife and I camped with a tent. While using the tent we observed many RVs as we traveled and decided that we would upgrade to an RV. The process of choosing an RV has been the same since that time. First we discussed our experiences and decided...

Rockman is absolutely right. As a truck business owner, an RV owner for over 50 years, a rancher participating in long and short haul requirements for each, I know that it is government regulations that have contributed to many thousands of highway accidents, injuries and deaths over the years...

We often read on this site questions from someone concerned with buying a used truck to pull an RV comparing the cost with a new rig.  There are price considerations that I rarely hear discussed. As a rancher and businessman I have personally purchased eleven pickup trucks over the years. My...

Yes, some camping costs have continued to climb, but no more than everything else from inflation. The cost of my new RAM Truck has gone up a lot more than the cost of camping in an RV park since we started camping in our RVs in the 1960's. Also I have noticed that the number of RV Parks listed...

In over 50 years RVing, I don't remember my wife and I ever getting a reservation for camping. We Use the God Sam Travel Guide and Passport America (We are Life Members of both). On our trips when we plan to stop at a Campground or Camping park, we just check the directories and about 2 or 3 PM...

There may be more to this than many know. Some time back, I think about two years, I was at RV America at Johnstown, Colorado. I overheard a couple who apparently were customers, complaining about the "long wait" to get appointment repair.  I did not hear how long their would be, but I did...

Depending on where you are in So Dakota, you may be closer than you think. Just 40 miles south of Cheyenne, Wyoming, on I-25, at Johnstown, Colorado is the largest Indoor RV Showroom in the United States. Lazydays RV (RV America)  has hundreds of RVs, both indoors and outside in three locations...
