Fulltime Capable RVs
I just read Tucker Ballister's article, "The Best RVs for Full-Time Living." I was disappointed not to see some of the high-end manufacturers and their quality products listed. Manufacturers of 5th wheels like: Spacecraft, New Horizons, Luxe, DRV build sturdy and very well quipped and beautiful RVs that will stand the test of fulltime living and travel. And manufactures of Class A motorhomes like: Liberty, Country Coach, Marathon, and Newell (to name just a few) do a stellar job on the best coaches (most built on Prevost busses) out there. And to me, conspicuously absent were Super Cs motorhomes (those built on Heavy Duty (semi tractor) Trucks. Again high end manufacturers like; Showhauler, NRC, Haulmark, and Renegade RV. While all these brands are VERY expensive, most of these RVs are not built in a production-line fashion, but are constructed in a partial or complete custom manner, one copy at a time. For the most part, these units a very well built and last many, many years of fulltime living. And thought most of these units, new, start at $250k and can rise to at least $1 million each, used units can be had for considerably less. Then they can be upgraded/updated. We did this with a New Horizons 5Th Wheel trailer (see See the Watts on Wheels YouTube video interview and now have a quality unit they can house us for years to come. Perhaps a future article can cover these high-end units and every updating/re-decorating them.4.3KViews0likes17CommentsBoondocking & Assistance Plans
With so many folks boondocking off the beaten path (like my wife and I in in our Heavy Duty (semi tractor) Truck and big 5th wheel RV trailer), perhaps it's time Roadside Assistance/Towing Plans have an option to handle these type of tow vehicles and be capable of reaching them on sandy beaches, drivable desert pathways and mountain dirt roadways. 100 feet off maintained roads (as most plans limit) may not be sufficient to reach us.1.3KViews0likes6CommentsBasement Storage of Super Cs compared to Class As
We're are very impressed with Super C's safety and reliability, and are really interested in a Verona Renegade. But we are concerned with the storage of Super Cs compared to Class As. Because of the frame rails storage in the Super Cs seems considerably more limited. Can some of you comment and either confirm or offer alternatives to my concerns of lack of storage on Super Cs? THANKS!1.4KViews0likes4Comments
