Am I the only one

that worries if you don't have an RV packed and ready to go. We recently sold our MH and will take delivery of our new TT within the next two weeks.

We keep our RV about three miles from home in a covered storage facility. It was always fueled, packed and ready to go. Once when our son was involved in an accident three hours away we were on the road within an hour and stayed there for a week. I always felt prepared when I knew it was sitting there ready to go. I thought in case of a house fire or tornado that the RV was the backup plan. Hopefully within the month we will have the TT packed and ready to go as well but I will not feel totally prepared until I get a generator and have some extra fuel on hand. What I loved and will miss about the MH was the fact it had an on-board generator and the MH had a 100 gallon fuel tank.

At any rate I am just thinking out loud and wondered if I am the only one that thinks about things like this.
  • Certainly isn't us.

    In an emergency, the last think I want to do is drive a motorhome or be towing a trailer. And if we didn't like camping so much I certainly wouldn't purchase and maintain any kind of RV as a backup plan just in case of a natural disaster.
  • IF you want to be that ready to go. Maybe you should have kept the MH. After all. Even though you can keep the TT packed with all you need but perishable food of course. You will still have to gas the TV, and hookup the TT. Will take a good bit longer than going into the MH and starting it up.

    Unless of course, you have a dedicated TV, and leave it hooked up
