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 are the most popular person in your neighborhood when the power goes out because you have cold beer in your fridge!

When the toilet overflows in your house, instead of grabbing a plunger, you head outside to pull the handle!

Your family can unfold a pop-up camper in less than 5 minutes

if...
-you are not roughing it in your PUP because you have A/C, DirecTV, DVD Player, A laptop, all of the snacks you ever need, and running water
but you think your son is roughing it in his own tent with Playstation 2 and DirecTV

- since you got a TT, roughing it is when you get the only site in a park that you cant get a good DirecTV signal

-you can't stop staring at the picture of your TT hitched to your truck

-you buy a new vehicle for towing capacity and never look at gas mileage

-The People down the street get a CTD to pull their TT and you are envious, so you buy one

-You get excited when you dont have to pack in suitcases

If the night you return home, your kids want to roast marshmallows over the kitchen stove burner for one more s'more.

If you're at home and the wife comes back to bed saying she had to go to the bathroom and sleepily you reply, "Did you remember to turn the water pump off?"
hmmmm happened to me

QUILTY AS CHARGED..

If before you buy something or have something done to your RV you first check rv.net for the best price and place to buy it.

If the electricity goes out in your neighborhood and everyone runs to the RV.

If you don't have to pack to go on vacation. Just walk out and drive off to WM for food then on the road.


If you've ever gotten in your car and pulled the visor down to check the cameras before backing out of your driveway.

If you've paid a plumber and electrician to install hooks ups at your childs house for when you visit.

If you're at home and the wife comes back to bed saying she had to go to the bathroom and sleepily you reply, "Did you remember to turn the water pump off?"

What a great idea when under fire restrictions! Only a true RV'er would think of that!

...if you buy an new truck and say, "Dear I think we could use a bigger camper."
This actually happened!

. . . a day and a half after returning from a trip, DW is still washing dishes in the kitchen sink. I say, "You know, we DO have a dishwasher." She says, "Oh, yah, I forgot."

LOL! Love that part. I'm with her. Even doing dishes by hand is fun - when you are RV'ing!

I have a dishwasher in my motor home. He is called RJ!;)

[rescuediver]

if...you wash and wax the tv and trailer. Then tell the wife to take her car to the car wash.

[PHILLIP300]

If you consider fine china being plastic sporks and paper plates...you just might be an RV'er

[PHILLIP300]

IF you have a bigger LCD TV in your trailer than you do in your house...you just might be an RV'er

[Mrs__Locknload]

....When buying a new toad or TV, the color has to match the RV.

....When you find baggies in the washing machine after doing the laundry from a trip.

....When you sleep better on the bed in the RV than you do on the bed in the stick house.

....When you don't mind defrosting the RV fridge, but you require a frost free fridge for the stick house.

....When you spend hours sitting out side while camping, but have lawn furniture at home that hasn't seen your backside forever.
