Re: Farewell Message...Final Post
Tom, I am glad you could share your experience with the young couple but also that you could share something so personal as your diagnosis with terminal cancer. You will be in our prayers as live your life for the remaining time you have with your family. Make the most of the good days and try not to worry of those not so good days. Know that you have been a positive impact to many here and in Illinois. God Bless you and your family with strength and understanding. Saying a special prayer for you all!

You will a dozen different opinions...each 'brand' has good & bad units depending on the Quality Assurance inspections and the worker. I have a Forest River product and have been happy with it. If I was in your shoes I would buy used, have it inspected by an independent RV Tech and stay in the 24-28' range. I will never buy another 'ultra-lite' again. And with that size and today's F150s you should be able to find something used and within the weights you need. Good luck and just be cautious of too good a deal!353Views0likes0CommentsRe: Moving up in the travel trailer age!!!

I have a 3/4T Suburban with 8.1L and though it has 240K plus on the odometer it pulls my 8K, 32' trailer with no issues with just the 4sp transmission. A F250 with the 6.2L, Chevrolet/GM with 6.0L, or Ram with 6.4L will all work fine on a 250/2500 chassis if properly equipped with tow package. A diesel would provide more power for towing, but under 10K I think any of the gas models will be fine (though you won't win the race up the hill) More importantly to figure out is how you will use it when NOT towing.282Views0likes0CommentsRe: Now I'm Really Confused
