RE: ARE THERE ANY SNOWBIRDS ANYMORE?

Water shortages will continue to get worse as long as politics allows it. As will electric blackouts as long as we continue to allow more consumption, such as electric vehicles, without any more energy production. When is the last time a power plant was built? Snow birds are only a drop in the bucket.

RE: Brevard County Florida camping fee changes

Politicians do as they please--I am involved in a situation where they raised the property tax on minerals 600% yet have not yet set the tax amount and won't until a month after the deadline to appeal. Now just how is that supposed to work?

RE: Towing a Honda CRV one time - NC to Maine

OK, want some advice from someone that has done just what you suggest with the same equipment? Here goes, we tow our 2018 FWD CRV all over on a dolly with no brakes. Does just fine from West Palm Beach to Cleveland, in the mountains and on the flat. Not sure about coming back with no weight on the dolly as it might get to bouncing, not really sure. There is a manufacturer in Fayetteville that sells them cheap with or without brakes. There you go.

RE: DISCUSSION: 8 ft + crew cab vs. SUV

I have had it all and prefer 8ft bed, 4 doors, 2wd. Don't need 4wd as I don't do anything to need it. 4doors and 8ft bed just make it ride better. If you can't maneuver that, sorry.

RE: 2023 camping season

Diesel here is $4.15 as of yesterday but gas keeps going up. I was paying over $5.00 for diesel last year at this time. So we are going but who knows where as so far we have never had trouble getting a spot. We don't go to see the campground, we just park and sleep there. Right now the hold up is Dr appointments. Sure my health is pretty good but kids insist on getting the check ups. To answer the question, yes we are going.

RE: Elkins West Virginia

Not much in that area. We were supposed to go to the Cass Railroad before Covid but everything closed down. I still have a week paid for at Pegasus and paid for tickets for the railroad but have been unable to get a refund on either. Doubt they will honor any of them. It says on the paper they sent us that GPS don't work, whatever that means.

RE: lighter weight four down toad?

I have been towing a Smart car since 2009 but I use a dolly. The current one I have now is set up to tow 4 down with a Roadmaster tow bar. I used it a couple of times and for me it is a pia to hook up and unhook so I continue to use the dolly. I'll sell the Roadmaster cheap. Smarts are hard to find now and I will soon sell our older one as we don't need 2.

RE: Roadtrip by car vs RV, a couple of thoughts...

We are over 80 and the DP never sits for long. Most trips are less than 1000mi because Mama thinks any more is "to far" for someone my age. But although we have been out west before I want to make another pass that way. Time will tell. This post opens some eyes. I hate motel/hotel stays. carry it in, pack it up and carry out every day and I like my own bed. If I go I just have to buy fuel, no matter.

RE: Pet Peeves in RV Parks

Since my daughter showed horses we of coarse had to have a Jack Russel, 3 over the years. They live a long time but I don't remember ever having a barking problem with any of them. The last 2 lived 17 and 18 years. I sure miss them even after being gone for about 7 years. You got train them.

RE: 2005 Fleetwood Expedition

Good for bull dozers etc. No business in a RV. Then try to find someone to work on one or try $32,000 to replace one that blows up going down the interstate at 70mph. There is a reason you don't find them in RVs anymore.

RE: Pet Peeves in RV Parks

I'll soon be 82 and have seen and heard it all I think. Noise, I just take out my hearing aids. Light, black out curtains. Most of the rest of it I just don't let it bother me, if it does I'll confront the people causing the problem. Have fun, you only go through life once, don't be miserable.

RE: road side assistance

I was in Ohio in the fall and ran the toad over the front of the dolly. Called Coach Net and was informed that it was not covered as it was an "accident". I was in a Wal Mart parking lot and flagged a man down and we got it back on. I am 81 and not as spry as I used to be. Guess I should have said it was a flat tire.

RE: Help with Roadside Assistance

They have lots of reasons to turn down service. My friend was turned down because he hadn't "activated" his account. They had cashed his checks!
