    Cup style coffee makers

    I enjoy grinding the beans (just do that outside;)) and have a 12 cup spacemaker that usually get two brews in the morning. No counter space is taken. The cost and plastic waste to brew that much coffee in pods each morning doesn't work for me.

    What is typically easier to tow and set up: MH with toad or TV with Travel Trailer

    For us, my wife can use the bathroom any time she needs to. Other wise we would be stopping ever 90 minutes for a potty break verses 4 to 5 hrs. Second is the ease of backing a single unit into a back in RV site.

    Another fridge fire...

    I installed extinguishers in refrigerator, generator, and engine compartment. Once you have an engine fire you don't skimp.

    Best Second Vehicle

    For us a 2018 Jeep Trail Hawk was our "up grade" from a 1997 Chevy Blazer. Both serve us well, we flat tow. We are not full time but do spend 3 to 6 months on the road. I do carry a bicycle, looking into an electric bike but for the cost I can't see how to keep it secure. Over the years I had...

    The ten year rule

    Our rig is 61 years old & a bus conversion to boot! I will put our rig up to any safely & looks check. I am safer in our rig then many sticks & stapes. In the 15 years we been on the road we been turned down three times. I look at it if they don't want us I don't want to be there.

    Hot water heater leak

    Looks like the tank has gone south. For me not worth the time or energy to repair. When one hole eats in the tank there are many more waiting to happen. Replace the unit is my advice.

    Are travel trailers / 5th wheels cheaper than motorhomes?

    For us it what makes our life style work, having the restroom available as we travel down the road is a BIG plus for my wife. We travel with friends that pull a 5th wheel with 4 slides, its an apartment! would I what it? Nope

    Would like to add a small air conditioner

    If you have the room look into changing to a split AC. Uses half the power and very efficient.

    Electric surge protection

    Having all your electrical fried would be a bigger expense plus it will happen at the most inconvenient time. A surge protection is just good insurance. Our Progressive saved our coach when plug into a 30 amp 220V drier outlet (was told it was an 30 amp RV). Also will stop current entering rig...
