RE: why would you do that?

My wife and I don't understand. We are staying at a nice rv park filled with nice rv's. We watched a man get out of his perfictly nice class C and go use the parks public shower. I know everyone is different and I am not judging his action. We just don't get why you would use a public facility when you have your own?
We don't do it because our shower and rig are comfortable and in every aspect home like.
Other RV's are not like that so while I don't do it I can understand why others might.

RE: Lost my good friend today

Seems like they are with us such a short time but make such a huge impact while they are there.

RE: What to buy to replace XP?

Wait till Win 8.1 hits the shelves. They bring back the Start button in that version. Or maybe some stores will offer certificates for a free upgrade if you buy now.\
They are NOT bringing back the same start button. All it does it bring you back to metro UI it is NOT the same thing.

RE: No Shaw Service in USA

They can't tell where the receiver is unless you connect it to the phone or internet.
Which is why they have issues with something called Account Stacking.

RE: Comprehensive vs Collison Insurance

Proximate cause would be wind. Comprehensive loss.
Unless they are looking to subrogate against someone whose property caused the damage.

RE: Looking for the top 5 mid sized Class A

Newmar and Tiffin. Look no further.
If I absolutely had to pick a third in the price range it would be Winnie.

RE: Newmar Canyon Star

Newmar makes excellent motor homes. The only other company I'd be interested in the price range we bought would be Tiffin.
We would gladly buy Newmar again.

RE: Cool coach while driving

If we are in the South its more or less a given that we'll be running the genset and the roof air. No issues keeping things cool doing that although we do keep the front ac very low to compensate for the sun and such on the windshield.
We don't bother with the dash AC.

RE: rope lights

Flamingos were cute. Nice post.
We enjoy having low level light outside.
As for camp fires many places ban them. Especially with many areas of the country becoming drier. Although when allowed we love a good campfire.

RE: Miles or hours how do you plan your day's drive?

Depends on the trip.
If all we are going to be doing is watching TV until bed then we'll continue on and take plenty of breaks. I see no reason to stop and set up only to sit there and watch the idiot box when I could be driving.
We take our time, stop often and aren't in a rush. Now if there is a reason to stop and see the sights we'll stop for a few days and do just that.

RE: rv campgrounds for 55+

How about just answering the OP's question without turning it into a "I don't like 55+ parks".
Do you really need to poop in every thread with an opinion no one really cares about?
OP, the only site we use is rvparkreviews.com and I don't think there is an easy way to filter out 55+ parks.

RE: leaving black tank full

There really isn't any advantage to leaving it 2 weeks. The more important thing is to leave it with water when sitting because that is when the leavings will turn to concrete. Not when its full and wet.

RE: Memorial Day dissapointment

Memorial Day disappointment
I just don't see the patriotism that once use to be so prevalent. Shame.
:(
I do not display a flag on my MH when in CG's.
I lost 2 members of my family in the war and 2 MIA.
Not displaying a flag on my MH on Memorial day does NOT makes me a bad person or unpatriotic.:R
I don't think of my family members JUST on Memorial Day.....I think of them every waking hour of my days.
People need to watch their words about others based solely on whether they fly a flag or not.
Excellent post.
Some people assume that just because there isn't a flag out in front of your property that they don't care or forget.
Not true.

RE: First time as a seasonal camper

Yes its normal.
If they pick it up I don't really care where the dog does its business. Not that they can control that. I guess they could drag the dog while its crapping spreading it out over your site.
There are annoying dog owners. There are also annoying people that have nothing to do but complain. Not directed at OP.

RE: FullTimers: how do you get your movies?

I have a media player for my TV with a removable hard drive. The kids have loaded it with 336 movies and 23 TV series. The entire series, not episodes or seasons. All of the Sopranos, Homeland (to date) just about everything on TV.
It cost me about $100 but they're about $50 now. A 100 gigabyte hard drive is another $100.
The bad news is because kids loaded it there are a lot of vampire TV series and movies. (We don't watch those) And they get a little ambitious in their downloading, so a couple of them have been accused of piracy.
We share our library around the campground. Some even have something to add to the library. I'd like to find someone with a collection of Nature & Nova. Our kids don't watch a lot of PBS. Though to be fair they've asked us "What do you want? We'll get it!"
What kind of hard drive and how do you hook it up to the television?
Thanks,
WoodGlue
I don't know what they are doing but essentially:
Smart TV
NAS (network attached storage) or PC
Run media center, plex or twonky on NAS / PC.
TV connects via ethernet. Smart tv uses built in allshare or similar software or you can use a roku type device and connect through HDMI while it connects to ethernet..

RE: Interior Remodel

Furniture is easy. We ripped out all the garbage euro chairs and sofa that came with the unit and replaced it with regular home stuff. Easy enough to do.
Custom wood work is more difficult and I don't know of anyone to recommend.
