Travel in the off season

[Larry N.]

We'd have been in granny gear, but we'd have gone over the top.

I love granny gear -- I've heard it called "house moving gear" -- but I've only found it on 2WD trucks, meaning that low range is required to get essentially the same effect on a 4WD vehicle.

I had an International Travelall back in the 80's. It had a 345 V8, a granny low 4-speed and 4wd. You could put it in granny low, and 4wd low range, let the clutch out at an idle, hook it up to a trailer and walk beside the trailer loading form boards for curbs and gutters for over a mile. Just had to put a bungie cord on the steering wheel to hold it straight. Did that at 3 separate shopping centers we built when I was doing concrete. Like a lot of those rock crawlers I watch on YouTube, that thing would run out of traction before it ran out of power.

There is no such thing as 'Off Season RVing'. Only inexperienced RVers.

Kind of nice to be the only person in a full hookup campground.

It’s easy to be the only one there when you own the property.

Beautiful! Just make sure you move it and mow under it. Those tall weeds will rust the heck out of the under body.

We sold the property to our son and the little TT was replaced with a park model cabin.

Yes. He loves living there by himself.
