RV.NET all the way. I agree about rvillage. It's ok to click on now and then and read a little but I have responded in length to some posts and broke my message up in paragraphs but after it's posted it's one long string of mind numbing words. I then edit and go through and break it all up in paragraphs again and it may work.
Rvillage has a feature that lets you see where your friends are but I think it's limited to 250 mile range. I have to move my current location and sometimes stumble on them. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
I have worked on a lot of electrically powered equipment and owned a couple truck campers long ago but RV.NET did a fantastic job of helping me set my current rig and learn energy management. Well, rv.net and ALL you guys did it. It's all the good people on here who make it work. I try to shop CW as often as I can.
