Re: Which is the better way to go 5th wheel or motorhome?
We full-time in a 1999 35 foot motor home. When traveling from north to south or vise versa we love it. However if we stay for three months or more which we do more and more we wish we had a fifth wheel. It is our home and we are comfortable in it, but there are times we wish we had the space of the 5th.234Views0likes0CommentsRe: Georgie Boy Encounter Class A Gas Motor Home RV Camper
I have a 1999 motor home and gave up on a paint job. When I checked it was from $5000 to $10,000 and up. A 1999 is not worth the investment. Is a 1996? You be the judge. I would want to at the very least ride in it on the road even if he has to drive. For me, no drive/ride no buy. Last year we had a water leak and had to have the carpeting replaced. We had most of it replaced with vinyl and the slide and driver's area carpet. The cost was approx $5000. That was too high, but was necessary. Just some thoughts for you to think on.157Views0likes0CommentsRe: Anyone have regrets about having gone full-time?
We have only been full-time for three years now and love it. Once we sold the house (to our kids) and all our belongings we had nothing to worry about that was not with us. No house rental, storage rental. We don't have a formal backup plan. My son and his wife that we sold the house to said we could move into the basement if needed. I don't know how two alpha males would work in one house. But I am fully aware it is HIS house so I guess I would adjust. We full-time in our 35' motor home with one slide. The park where we workkamp in the winter is in south Texas and has a lot of park models. I consider the option of one day buying a park model, but have made no plans yet.259Views0likes0CommentsRe: Some Iowa MH owners facing big tax problems.

Seems like it would be a popular local issue in the affected States, since let's face it: every time one of those so-called Montana LLC "law firms" snags another out-of-stater, taxpayers in the evader's home state has to pick up the slack for the scofflaw. One would think that if enough Attorneys General got together and appealed to the Feds, some sort of RICO case could be put together. Let's try to keep the feds out of state business. They butt in to much as it is.164Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cooking for family get together.
