Thanks everyone.... this all sounds great and what I was hoping for.
I am a bit confused as to the various systems though. The airbags are suspension/support but only carry load from the coach to the wheels, right? Then, there are jacks that are put down. Some automatically level (push a button inside and it goes level?) While some you basically have a joystick or different buttons to push inside while you watch a level?
With the weight of these coaches is it ever a problem with the jacks just sinking into the ground?
Sorry for all the questions.... I work with houses for a living and am trying to understand just what is going to be holding me up in my house with wheels when I retire someday :) Thanks!
