Class C - with ability to tow
Exploring doing a year-long RV adventure and was hoping to get some advice on a Class C. It would be myself/wife/two medium sized dogs and our Jeep Grand Cherokee. So I need something that will not break the bank but will give us room and ability to tow. I have no RV experience - once had a travel trailer but that was the extent. I have never driven a large RV. Looking to explore the southwest during winter and northern parts off-winter. I still work (telecommunte) so most likely staying at places weeks at a time. So also curious to know if there is a website/forum, etc that points out some of the great places to stay with good wifi/amenities etc Thx -4.2KViews0likes14CommentsTrip to Colorado from Minnesota
Never been to Colorado and considering making a trip in few weeks. Looking to rent a drivable RV (off RV Share) and do not want to get in over my head as I have never driven anything larger than a standard pickup truck. I have two dogs (40lbs ea) so will need something with a bit more space and I do not want to travel too far or deep into Colorado but close enough to get a feel for it. Certainly no mountain/pass driving. Perhaps that will limit me forsure. Looking for suggestions of places to stay or visit that this time of year would be good, have room and maybe dog friendly (i.e. dog parks, etc). Thx.2.9KViews0likes7CommentsRe: Seeking advice on towing vehicle

Thanks for sharing the details... We are not head set any given RV. We are empty nesters with two dogs and are exploring our options if we go the RV route vs. finding a cabin somewhere, etc. We would like to find something that has a space for hauling a Dirt bike or Four wheeler and doubles as a space for dogs if needed.227Views0likes0CommentsSeeking advice on towing vehicle
Seeking advice on a towing vehicle for a 5th wheel camper. I am looking at a 2019 Heartland Road Warrior 413RW I've only ever owned a small travel trailer that was 21' so my SUV was able to tow. As given, with the fifth wheel I need to upgrade to a pickup but I am not well versed in pickups. I would have to buy used and not sure what size I should look for or if I should look for it to be gas or diesel, etc. Thx.4.9KViews0likes23CommentsHow to mount flat screen ??
I am seeking advice by those who have done a DIY mount for your flat screen. The TV space in my camper is above the fridge. The backspace seems the most logical place to mount but it does not feel like there is any support material behind it. I could try to mount on the cabinet side but the height of the TV will not allow it to swing back due to the antenna ceiling control. This is the mount I am using -> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BCUM7661.9KViews0likes7Comments
