You MIGHT be an RV'r if . . .

[justALnow]

As a takeoff on Jeff Foxworthy's "Redneck" bit, here's a few thoughts that have popped into my mind. I will admit to being guilty of SOME of these!

You MIGHT be an RV'r if. . .

. . . the Camping World Master Catalog arrives and you lock yourself in the bathroom for an hour with a cordless phone and your VISA card.

. . . when someone asks how many people can sleep in your RV, you and your spouse answer in unison, "JUST TWO!"

. . . you could re-plumb, or re-wire your RV blindfolded, but if the dishwasher in your house quits, you tell your wife to call somebody.

. . . the sheets, towels, and small appliances in your RV are all brand new and color co-ordinated, but in your house it's the same stuff you bought at garage sales when you first got married.

. . . you're not at Camping World within 10 minutes of opening on Saturday morning, and they call your house to see if you're OK.

. . . at home it's Pop Tarts, hot dogs, grilled cheese, and leftovers, but in the CG it's full breakfasts, porterhouse, boiled shrimp, and fresh sweetcorn.


OK, folks, let's hear some more!

You've spent $20,000 on a TT, upgraded the TV, and bought another $3,000 worth of chairs, sheets, collapsable trash cans, TV, DVD player, kitchen supplies, and cast iron.....and you think camping is a bargain because it only costs $25 a night in a State Park campground!!

You're reading this forum while in your RV parked who knows where because you don't have a slab or a stick house.

If....you've gotten married and had the ceremony and reception at a campground...and yes that is what we did.

NO. When your kids are shopping for a house....

Your boss tells you he and his wife do not see the appeal of camping....and you just smile.

You get back from camping and put off going to the lumber store because you don't want to take out the hitch or the camping box because your next trip will be in three or four weeks (counting the days!)

you start a fluff thread on an RV forum.


and it turns into a novel.

You are right. Let me amend that.
...even though you shouldnt be looking to buy a new RV because:
1. Financial situation
2. SWIMBO will kill you if you buy a new one.

(Although SWIMBO did like that Super C they had on the lot there.....)

I thought the smaller the vehicle, the wider they swing into the wrong side lane. I regularly turn onto side roads without swinging wide at all where small cars nearly get taken out by oncoming traffic because they swing halfway into the next lane...and I don't even at 41ft long with the trailer.
