Re: Best way to sell a Class A
I use Craigslist for everything used and it works. Semi-local and cash deal only of course but I buy and sell relatively low end toys. Boats, RV, musical items, etc... Just put in the ad "no phone number, no reply" and you will weed out the tire kickers. If the rig is in the $25K+ range I would use RVtrader since it targets a higher end customer.

It may help.. This is a great post...get insurance and relax. Enjoy life and stop stressing over your stuff, we will all end up with nothing when they put us in the ground anyway. Heck, I forget to lock the door half of the time so I am on the other end of the spectrum.431Views0likes0CommentsRe: Making the jump from tent camping to RVing
I jumped right into a class A on a recommendation from a friend and have no regrets. If you buy a low mile well maintained unit for short money you can always flip it if you don't like it. The bottom line is if you are used to tent camping any size will offer more comfort than you are used to and you can always throw a folding canopy/screen room in the trailer to spread out outdoors so being cramped is just a foul weather issue.

My wife isn't the "roughing it" kind of woman, she has long hair and takes time with her appearance. One of the reasons we got a motor home instead of a trailer is that it makes the trip easier. I don't view installing a tankless system as being a big problem, if it makes her ok with the RV then it is well worth it. That being said, I will investigate that the system is working properly before switching over. I shower just fine without shutting hot water off at all! Happy wife = Happy life In all honesty though it is really not "toughing it out" to shower like that on trips. It is just a matter of changing a habit during a shower, it won't change how clean you get. I would give it a try before you think about changing things out or worse, just throwing in the towel. In the end it is your rig and your $$$ so whatever you decide is the correct choice433Views0likes0CommentsRe: Convert to tankless?

If she has long hair? That's a whole 'nother joy, right there. You don't have to actually turn water right off at the head...just turn it down to dribble. The pump noise will drive you nuts tho.

I was with SF for 24 years with perhaps 2 minor claims and when I had a comp claim they didn't hesitate to apply my $500 deductible. After that I decided to shop and found they were over-charging my by a solid 25% for years. The "shop around every 3 years" is good advice for all insurance674Views0likes0CommentsRe: I80 instead of 78 into PA from 287

Thanks for the legwork... As was posted 84 in waterbury is a nightmare but the ride is so much more scenic I think that I will take that route in April and see if I keep my fillings in699Views0likes0CommentsRe: How to make long driving more comfortable ?
I have lower back issues and this cushion has allowed me to do 400 mile days with no discomfort. I do travel at a relaxed pace and stop whenever I feel like it (or the dog needs to go potty) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FR9R0RA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1585Views0likes0Comments
