    Class A boondocking - 36 days and counting....

    Hi, That beats our 21 days without solar and just using my genset. Don't you have to dump tanks? The 21 days is two of us.

    Reliable Used Class A

    There are a lot of Thor Vegas and Axis RV's out there for sure. We looked at these when we wanted a Class A. In my opinion they are a fancy Class C. Someone mentioned the lesser chassis (less payload) and we thought they were cheaply made. They cost $100K when we looked at them in 2016. You...

    Cordless Magic™ - 2024 Edition RV Antenna - 450 Mile Range anybody tried it?

    The Far range TV conditions are called: tropospheric ducting events can temporarily bring in distant stations, or stations not usually reliable. Perhaps that is the way they get away with misrepresenting the distance but dishonest all the same.

    Cordless Magic™ - 2024 Edition RV Antenna - 450 Mile Range anybody tried it?

    Since a lot of us travel west sometimes (or most of the time) getting signals get tricky with all the mountains that tend to get in the way. With that said, I have got signals from Missouri in Indiana. We had a 100 foot tower and I don't know how tall the towers were that transmitted the...

    12 Volt Fridge freezer

    Just thought I would throw this out. When my wife and I have boondocked in Oregon or KOFA or both, we have went for three weeks with two 120 amp 6 volt batteries (wired to 12 volts) powering our fridge, furnace and powered our TV/DVD for 2 to 4 hours in a 24 hour period. We were running our...

    Gunk Remover

    Just a note for people. Gunk is a brand name cleaner for engine degreaser. Not a good idea for cleaning the RV on the outside but good for cleaning up oil and grease on your engine parts.

    Do you have a Nickname?

    Hi NY_Dutch and all, My family are German and from Pennsylvania. So we are Pennsylvania Dutch. Getting back to the topic, my fifth grade teacher gave me my nickname "AL" I guess to be more masculine.

    What does it cost to RV? What to say

    Hi Ray and all, I figure as long as you don't sell the RV it's value is a constant, depreciation or not. At the time you sell the RV, that gives a solid number to calculate based on inflation and depreciation. I might be able to sell my RV (considering the shape and miles) for more with the...

    What does it cost to RV? What to say

    Greetings, I agree with a number of the responses here. I can mainly tell someone what it costs for me. There are variables that can add cost or in some cases if you live a charmed life and watch what you spend, it can be pretty cost effective. I know if you were to take a car trip and stay in...

    New Function - Ignoring a Thread

    A useful tool for sure. I've been able to read threads I want by simply ignoring a certain group of people (put in my ignoring spot) and you'd be surprise how much shorter some of these threads are when you don't have to read from that group!!
