Well.. I guess that's another reason to thank that agressive and hostile SEMI driver who totaled my motor home (No parking) Now I know it's Upsetting when they declare a rig totalled. but I have several reasons for being happy (Medical needs, and Vehicle "medical" needs among them) It was starting to look like I'd be needing major repairs soon.. The body work on yours truly and the Chassis work on the RV (Suspension, brakes, and the like). So Totaled it is.

One, well Two, things I would like to see or have seen
1: (have seen) is a "Rv=Ferry" service.. Basically you hand the keys to a porter or drive it onto the flat bed freight car yourself, Towed and all, and the Train folks secure it while you move to a Passenger car.. Get where you are going and drive off (They have ramps in the yards for that)
and 2: Same thing but Just Cars, not RV's
That way I could like drive to Detroit, or Toledo, hop a train, arrive in say Chyenne Who, and the porter brings me my very own car. Luggage still in Jeep, no need for any but my carry on bag. And no rental
A weekend rental can easily be a few hundred bucks if you include insurance (My last rental was just that).
