?RV’s must be RVIA approved & a minimum of 28'
?RV’s must be 10 years or newer or pre-approved
?Vans, pop-ups, truck campers, travel trailers and Class B’s are prohibited

I've covered it in previous posts on this very thread. Not going to repeat it. Have a nice day.

I think you're confused msmith1199. In your scenario I'm not soliciting for business, they are. Big difference.

And when I was in business for myself and soliciting for business I never turned anybody down; ever. If they could pay the bill and I felt I could do the job well, I did it.

You never did say how it was good logic and business sense or why there is a reason for this 10 year limit????

On a side note, there was a man that built a business model on never turning anybody down and giving a cheap price to everybody. I heard he drove around in some POC Ford truck for years. Here is his truck.



I heard he was pretty successful or so I was told? You might have heard of him? I heard he has quite a few stores or something like that? Someone even told me he was a billionaire!!! Ya right, a guy that has quite a few stores is a billionaire and and drives a truck like that? Ha, ha, ha, ha, sure, I think it's just a story. :W

Turtle have you ever refused to do business at any business at all based on any reason whatsoever? What if their prices were too high or what if you don't like their products? What if you walked into a restaurant and saw cockroaches all over the place? Are you going to discriminate against that poor restaurant owner and not eat at his place just because of a few bugs and a pungent smell? Is that good discrimination or bad discrimination? We can come up with what-ifs all day long. There is a reason for this 10 year limit on RV's and I think the RV parks are well within their rights to have it of that's what they want to do.

And you did notice my RV is a 2004? That means I only have a little over a year left until I'm excluded and I'm not going to buy a new RV. Oh my gosh, maybe I'll need to get a lawyer and sue for discrimination! Or maybe I'll just need to keep my RV clean and in good shape and if I have a need to stay at one of these parks I'll talk to the manager and explain that to him and see if they'll still let me in. If not, I'll take my business down the road!

All you have to do is make a copy of the title to your MH. Each yr. (white out) the model yr. and move it up 1 yr. You will keep a 9 yr. old unit and you will "show those discriminators". :S

I've never been asked to see my registration at an RV park. I figure I'm good for 4 or 5 years just adding a year to the model date each year. :)

This is of course completely unlike the 10 year policy we are discussing in this thread because there is logic and business sense behind it.

How so? :h Please do tell.

Fair enough, let me switch a few things around to make it more pertinent and see how you feel.

Lets say I was the owner of a campground and from my perspective I'm doing a good thing because I think most people that come to my campground think that a 2004 National Tropi-Cal T-350, Class A, with Triple slides are ugly and therefor I don't want it around cluttering up the newer really "cool and modern class A's." After all, a 2004 is Kinda square and pretty ugly compared to the newer more modern class A's. And that old Cat is a rattle trap and does not have a DPF so it's going to smoke up my campground and wake the dead. I don't want that thing in my campground, that's for sure!

Beyond that, you just traveled 800 miles to come to my campground and when you go to sign in I tell you "sorry, 2004 Tropi-cal sucks, now get out of here."

Then you say, But Turtle, I read about your campground online and it said nothing about 2004 Tropi-cal's not being allowed. You go on to say you just traveled 800 miles to come to Turtles cool campground and now your telling me I can't camp here?

I tell you, yep, your class A sucks now get lost before other "cool class A's" see that thing out in front of my campground and leave.


From my perspective I'm discriminating against you in a good way.

Tell me about your perspective if this had happen to you. How would you feel? Is this a good use of discrimination or a bad use of it?

Am so tempted to put the hitch carrier on my rv strap a mannequin into a rocking chair and strap the chair on the hitch carrier.

Ellie Mae (Donna Douglas) is going to turn 80 years old in September. Good luck with that no swim suit requirement. :)

Man, you sure do know how to kill a party

I actually know this because a few years ago I was in a car dealership here in California buying a new car. They had a sales board up with a list of names of all the people who had bought cars that weekend. One of the names on the list was Donna Douglas. I asked the salesman if that was Ellie Mae on the list and of course he had no idea what I was talking about. I had to tell him that Donna Douglas played Ellie Mae on the Beverly Hillbillies. He said he didn't think it was her because it was an elderly lady that bought the car. So I got out the iPhone and looked her up and at that time she would have been 77. So it may have been her.
