    Default Any RV owners out there?

    Since we are all experts on full houes it seems that we would all be pretty good with the kind with wheels.

    I started a few years ago with a tent trailer, next came the travel trailer and now a 5th wheel (wife wouldn't stay in the previous two.... long story)

    Anyhow, I got out of town today and am out for the first time of year in my home with wheels and was wondering how many of my fellow inspectionnews addicts have a second home on wheels.

    With how slow the winter was I didn't know if I'd have to get rid of mine or, worse yet, end up living in it....

    We started out in a used pop-up, then went to a new Coleman Niagara pop-up with a bathroom, then to a 29 foot travel trailer, then to a 36 foot 5th wheel, and now have a 36 foot motor home.

    Hope you are having fun out there and enjoying the great outdoors!

    We had a coleman sedona popup that we used a lot for about 4 years and then got this 2007 27ft TT. We go somewhere just about every month, the SC state parks are really nice and we have several within 2-3 hours of here.


    A used popup is the best way to get into RV'n. We found a super deal on one only about a year old from a private seller and sold it 4 years later for only $500 less than we paid for it. The couple that bought it still had a 28ft TT but needed something smaller to get into small campgrounds for occasional hiking trips.

    We like the floorplan in the TT, 27RLSS (rear living room/ super slide)
    We have helped "sell" several of these when camping neighbors see the layout. Its also towable with a 1/2 ton truck equipped with a tow package, WD hitch, extendable mirrors and brake controller. We weighed our loaded rig and it was within the truck rear axle limit but we don't haul kids. We take a 12.5 ft Sea Eagle inflatable boat with a 9.8hp motor on most trips.


    RVwholesalers.com is the best place to buy new RV's if they carry the one you want. RV.net is a good message board too.
