OK......brain fade is setting in here along with the fog & decreasing temps.... I used to think I understood this subject, but hope someone can clarify a couple simple questions: 1) Have a B+ Tr...

thanks for the discussion gents
I'm really not ready to leap back into towing, as that is what I just escaped (2500 Ram + 23' Aerolite).
The transition to 'only RV' to move about in, is an adaptation that will require a bit of training; still, I see others have 'gone bare' with no ill effects.
The 23' length with 6L Chev is just dandy; packing up & moving so easily will take a bit of practice is all.
Still, I'm liking the idea of 'something' on the bumper......bicycle/Honda 90/etc is small enough & has 'SOME' practicality.
I'm still working on 'the bed' issue; discovered the sleeping with head to the dinette end did help; shopped foam pads today as the air mattress isn't working well enough. Got the Coleman single depth (6"?) queen size, and blows up easily with the inflator/hair drier style gizmo. We just don't like the way it pops up so much when moving on/off it.
The wood-top install on the stove made huge improvement in noise abatement.
Did the 'winterization' routine last week & had the RV tech show me how to drain everything so next year I can do it at home.
It's a VERY convenient 'club house/spare room' parked out there.
I'm going to do the cleaner/wax routine for the winter season next. Any tips?
