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!

DW came up with this one -

. . .you picked your interior colors to hide your pet's hair.

If you collect SPAM recipes

If you have a dutch oven cookbook

If the trailer gets more wax than the wifes car

If you need to explain to a visitor how to flush the toilet

If you know what a "pie iron" is, own one or two and have the cookbook for that, too.

If the brand name "Trojan" refers to batteries...

If… after not being on the road in a while you sit in the drivers seat and make engine sounding noises while turning the wheel.

If.. your 4 year old tells you a diesel is coming around the bend by the sound, then identifies the make as it goes by..."Here comes a Diesel....and it's a Ford"

....The kids don't want sleepovers....they want to take friends/cousins camping

If… you drive away from low hanging branches in your car.

If... you know how to get those little maps that show all the places you've been onto your RV forum profile... 😞

If... new year's day is spent in the mh with your camping friends, calendars and the trailer life guide mapping out the year's vacations...

[jfmoots]

if.. vacationing to a 'trailer park' seems perfectly ok to you.
if.. you know what the Emerald Ash Borer is.
if.. your kids often point out that that's too much trailer for that truck.

Thank God I'm no the only one to do that!

If your friends tell you to shut up and that they don't care about the kind of holding tank chemicals you use.

If you can't talk to the people who say flying first class to the Bahamas and drinking champagne in their condo with the private pool and bowling alley is a real vacation.

I admit, I just "got it" seeing it this time around. THAT'S GOOD!

.....you can take a full shower, including washing your hair, with less than 1 gallon of water.
