Exit Now Directory
I have a 2010 edition of the Exit Now Interstate Exit Directory published by Good Sam. Does anyone know why this directory was no longer published after 2012? This was the best interstate highway directories I have ever owned. I love the layout and how it was bound so that the ages laid flat without binding up. Any information about this publication would be greatly appreciated. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year. Safe travels too.3.2KViews0likes11CommentsRe: Terrible Experience - EZ Living RV Braidwood, IL
I formerly owned a 2006 5th wheel manufactured by Forest River. It was a pretty good unit and served us well. This past summer I stopped at the dealership from whom I purchased the 5th wheel. They are still a Forest River dealer. I must say that I was appalled and disappointed in the poor workmanship of the Forest River products. You did not have to be a quality control professional to see all the defects; seemed like every unit had multiple defects. There are no justifiable reasons to put out units with obviously quality issues. Personally, I don't think many RV manufactures put out good quality products. Reminds me of the auto industry back in the 60's and 70's. Not until the Japanese vehicles arrived did the US auto makers have to improve their quality. I don't think I would buy another Forest River product. I think there are better quality units being made by other manufacturers. JMHO675Views0likes0CommentsRe: Selling motorhome on Internet
Use PayPal only for getting the deposit on the MH. Th e deposit whould be due within 48 hours after the sale. Get the balance by wire transfer to a checking account. I recently sold a classic muscle car on ebay. I got my PayPal money the same day the buyer deposited the funds. I wish you the best.354Views0likes0CommentsRe: Oliver Factory Tour: Pls Help Interpret My Findings?
I actually met the owner of Oliver Trailers about six or seven years ago in one of the western states. I was in an A class parked overnight in a small gravel lot just outside of a small town. Do not remember the exact town; may be in Montana or Wyoming. When I awoke the next morning, a very interesting TT was parked next to me. Later I walked over and introduced myself to the owner and inquired about the TT. It did not have a brand name or any markings on the trailer. The owner stated the TT was a prototype he and his son were considering manufacturing. They had some type of business/factory in Tennessee. Their primary business was not related to the RV industry. The owner stated that he could not find a well made TT so he decided to manufacture his own TT. That trailer had the best quality materials and best workmanship I have ever seen in an RV. The fit and finish was superb! It had many extremely well designed features; I do not remember all of them, but I was highly impressed and I do not get highly impressed very often. The TT was no longer than 22 to 24 feet, but did have a tandem axle. The owner said they had not manufactured many units because the RV market had taken a downturn. He was hoping when the market picked up, he could start manufacturing and selling the TT. He did not state the price range for the TT. I would think the price for a TT of this quality would be at the higher end for TT's. If I was in the market for a smaller TT I would definitely check out the Oliver TT's.289Views0likes0CommentsRe: Classic RV cover

I tried one once, and found I wouldn't use my motorhome because it would be too hard to get the cover off and then back on just for a weekend trip. That and the cover made rub marks on the siding. Just wasn't worth it. I agree fully.419Views0likes0Comments
