Ahhhhh! Like that concept a lot! We are going to hit the Seattle RV show in Feb 6-9. I hope they have some display units there with this concept. Hub would love to get a better look at that. I'm a super cautious/wary driver but... bad things can and do happen fast. My hope once I retire is to be RVing at least 3 -4 months out of the year. It never hurts to have as many safety features as possible when on the open roads. Thanks!
What you describe applies to so many retirees new to RVing.
Well...we are "new" to luxury RVing, but not RVing. I guess you could call us highly seasoned "boondockers". We have spent years camping in remote, back country areas. Our campers were not self contained, and the only people we saw were each other, or a few people who ventured in with us. It was peace and quiet personified. We always hauled in horses (even had one horse designated as the "fishing horse"). She was a very reliable mare who carried in alllll the fly fishing gear including two partially inflated float tubes. She was quite the sight.
It was quite the education for us to go to true RVing by today's standards. In the beginning we struggled to adjust to sooooo many people packed in such a small area. We have encountered some flaming idiots, but we have also met some wonderful free spirited people and we have made great friendships along our way. We met some "full time RVers" on one of our short outings that were from the E. coast of the USA. We live on the far W. coast of the USA. We had a great time with them, and in passing we mentioned where we would be the following month (and where we would be parked). They backtracked from their original plans and met us a month later at a large kite festival. We had another great round of fun with them. I believe we will stay in contact with these people for the rest of our lives. THAT part of the new RVing has been extremely enjoyable for us! Soo many fun people out there enjoying life!!
My husband is already retired, and I hope to retire in the next year or two. Time will tell.
Maybe we'll bump into you... LOL
