I used to be one of the class clowns around here....but I could use some good info in this matter. Anyone screwing with me can figure that I will hunt you down.

You know you're gonna have to give up cable, I couldn't do it, good luck.

Do they make hybrids? LOL.

You can get 'em with DSS dishes that will track the satellites while you're on the move...

So that means...what?? You getting me a discount...or are you working on a finder's fee?

[ChefKeith]

If you can afford it go with a class a and make it a pusher they are easier to work on.

Get a dish setup and a laptop w/ cell phone hookup. (Ya gotta be able to FReep from anywhere)

When I was a tiny tot we had a neighbor in the trailer park who was constantly talking about and doodling plans for a trailer with an engine. His name was Jim Baker and Winnabago ripped off his ideas. He sued them for millions.
I have always recalled that memory whenever I hear the name Winnabago.

Rent RV's every chance you get. Even look int

Take weekend trips, long vacation trips, and outings. If you burn out of RV living while renting, you have save a grundle of money. A couple of years of renting every other weekend will tell you if you really like it.

[Keith in Iowa]

Actually, right now would be a good time to get one, as they have a bit of a surplus of inventory - I don't have connections good enough for discounts...

Here's some advice from a former marketing director for an RV firm, who spent more nights in an RV than I would have liked to (I would never buy one - personal choice). I would suggest a Class A (if you can afford one). Since you're planning to live in it full time, a Class C minimotorhome can get pretty crowded, especially if you are not traveling alone. Keep in mind that a motor home gets very few miles to the gallon (a concern with gas prices being what they are).

Don't worry about cable. You can get a dish and still watch Fox News and most of the other "cable channels."

Good luck.

Buy used. They depreciate like crazy. I have friends who bought a BlueBird for half of retail with only 8,000 miles on it. Many very elderly buy new and have health/death issues that prevent enjoying the RVs for very long. From what I've seen, RVs depreciate faster than mobile homes. The good news is that buying used one can find real bargains. Good luck.

[bigsigh]

rent one, take a long trip. If you like it buy.

[Focault's Pendulum]

I'll take you to Big Ed's Pizza.

I refuse to believe that anyone in the South Great as it must be can come up with anything less than toasted white bread topped with tomato soup, under some undefinable string cheese.

I'm a Polack TB...and even I can make a better pizza without having to deep fry it.

My parents go half time. They absolutely love it. We've been trying to talk them into going to Alaska, but, it's their winter getaway. They go to Texas, Louisanna, Mississippi, Florida, Arizona, California, etc. I don't know all the operating details, just throwing my two cents in. They're 73 and 76 so, they've got a couple years left. I'll bet you can get some satelite package for freeping. I can see it now, a daily thread, "On The Road With Focault's Pendulum".
