Re: 10 Worst States for Retirement!

I love your grand old ocean and I love her rugged shore. I love your red-wood forests - love your fields of yellow grain. I love your summer breezes and I love your winter rain. I love you, land of flowers; land of honey, fruit and wine. I love you, California; you have won this heart of mine. I love your old gray Missions - love your vineyards stretching far. I love you, California, with your Golden Gate ajar. I love your purple sun-sets, love your skies of azure blue. I love you, California; I just can't help loving you. I love you, Catalina, you are very dear to me. I love you, Tamalpais, and I love Yosemite. I love you, Land of Sunshine, Half your beauties are untold. I loved you in my childhood, and I'll love you when I'm old. I'm still not clear on how you feel about California. ;)598Views0likes0CommentsRe: Forest River Motorhomes RV One Superstores????

Be a man call fr and make plans to take it back to the factory and they will fix all your problems. With this comment, my advice to the OP is to end this conversation. You have enough on your plate without having to respond to garbage like that.862Views0likes0CommentsRe: Forest River Motorhomes RV One Superstores????
From the perspective of someone beginning the process of shopping for his first rv, the OP's post is of great interest to me. So, is there a forum, site, etc., that posts users reviews of rv dealers (i.e. Yelp) ? I find that most everyone on the rv forums I have read has a wealth of knowledge they are willing to share. Apologies if this post hijacks this thread. To the OP I will follow any of your additional experiences with great interest and wish you the best of luck. New guy, Joe664Views0likes0CommentsBest source for RV reviews?
What have you found to be the best source for unbiased reviews or particular motorhome brands or models? I have found with some magazines of other products (motorcycles, cars, guns) they seem to think everything is great. So what magazine/web site/blog would I find a good honest source for reviews.6KViews0likes15CommentsRe: Information resources?
Thanks for the quick replies. We have started our shopping for an RV now. We have pages of check lists that we bring with us and since we have time on our side we don't feel any pressure of jumping on one particular coach. I don't think we will be parked for a considerable amount of time. Maybe at first, just to adjust to the new post-career life. Our ambition is to get on the road and see the country. My thoughts on buying are having a home base address and a guaranteed place to always return to. I like the idea of travelling around before deciding on a particular spot. I'm wondering if it is even worth it over all to buy into one of those communities or should we wait to see if we want to park in one spot for a while? Such is my research project. Thanks again folks.688Views0likes0CommentsInformation resources?
I can see already that the RV/MH community is a wealth of information and populated by some very nice people willing to help and give advice. My wife and I are starting our long term planning for the switch to F/T upon my retirement in four years. (We like to get our ducks in a row well in advance of taking action. It's a nod to our indecisiveness that gives us more time to change our minds a million times. ;) ) So, we have been researching purchasing a plot in a RV Community as a home base. Can you point me to some resources that will spell out the ins and outs of buying into a community? Some folks seem to think it's ideal because you can rent out your space when on the road. Will it be worth it? Will the rental income offset costs somewhat? Is there some decent books or websites out there that explore these topics objectively and in detail? Thanks folks! I look forward to reading more and more of the info and advice posted here. Joe3.3KViews0likes11Comments
