Having troublemaking reservations

Yeah, what Dutchmen said.

I got my laughs too, and caught "it" right from the start!

That's a good one jesseannie!!

There are way to many serious posters on these forums. A bit of humor is a good thing every now and then!

You embarrased about being truthful ???

That was a good one.

Amazes me that so many people didn't see the joke. Gotta have a sense of humor to go with that common sense, or life just might be a bit boring. :)

LOL, I don't blame you, that would bother me also.

Well I have a problem with that very personal question. AND I don't think it has anything at all to do with making a reservation at a National Forest Campground.
The system won't let me go on without answering that Question.
What do you guys do???

I am not sure if you are joking. But they are referring to your TT, fiver, or popup when they speak of equipment length.

LOL !

What would I do? Answer the question.

I don't find giving the length of my unit a very personal question just like it doesn't bother me to tell if I'm camping in an RV or tent. Or how many people are coming.Or what my car license # is.

The way I look at it they are asking these questions for a number of reasons: to help identify future needs (market research); to help to ID your setup in case of an emergency(emergency preparedness)and to ensure you'll fit in the space or down the road (do we need to widen the road so these type of units will fit? Is there a demand for it?).

HTH alleviate your concerns.

Everyone, I'm sure he's joking about a different kind of "equipment". The key phrase was "this very personal question". I laughed when I read it, then laughed harder at those that didn't and took it seriously.

Answer the question accurately. If you don't, we will find your next post complaining that the site you reserved was too short for your equipment.
