RE: Frosty Hauler as a Residence?

We are in the same position... Sold our house in a record 5 days. We are building a new home,but that won't be ready till September.We will spend the first month at a nearby campground and when we are able ,move the MH to our lot and watch them build our house... We have 2 Labs and a cat...only the cat will be a problem.The dogs are happy just to be with us.
yes! that's what happened! we expected it to go fast (w/i a week), but think it actually surprised our agent. great on your new home. I love pictures--take them at every stage of construction. our dog is same--just wants to be with us--but RV grounds says NO little fencing to keep her in. MUST be on leash with us any time outside. rats. Joe R.......loved your suggestion the most! :B

RE: Frosty Hauler as a Residence?

really appreciate the comments! and "extended range cell tower Internet access" sounds intriguing--but too late for ours or can be done still? yes, I liked the idea of the screened porch, will look into that. and won't miss the mortgage pmts. the DH will go to work and then bring it back home with him (teacher), poor fella. the RV park we picked looks nice and has convenient amenities. may be pushing my luck to ask to park my bike in one of the open spaces across from ours tho. :R

RE: Frosty Hauler as a Residence?

appreciate all the comments! thank you so much for the great advice--just what I was looking for--and things I didn't think of (storage unit). I can always count on answers I can use from this site. thanks!

Frosty Hauler as a Residence?

we are about to embark on another adventure in our Minnie Winnie. our home has sold a bit fast (nice problem to have, but). we are about to find ourselves in a park for 6 wks-2 mos before we can get another house. not intended for living, I know. i'd rather be on the road, but the DH is working. any specific recommendations for surviving more than the average vacation in one? one DH, one little fur kid....30'. hmmmmm............

RE: Winnebago quality

here's another very happy Winnebago owner. we've had zero problems. it's well thought out, quality is evident; holding up under our gkids/dogs issues. we'd do it again in a NY minute.

RE: If you had to do it all over again......

have to agree with the full body paint. those decals just don't last and look pretty crappy in the peeling stage. other than that, we're happy with it. all systems work well. if we could get better mileage, it'd be great, but that's not going to happen and not why we bought it.

RE: 1st RV - so many choices - Winnebago?????

assuming you've checked the MH value and it's w/I the range or better, i'd say it sounds like you've found a good deal. we have a Winnebago Minnie Winnie 30c and just love it. the floor plan we chose works for us (older couple with small dog); frequent guests. all systems work beautifully and it's amazing how well thought out these RV's are. comfortable! have had no problems and Winnebago is a reputable name.

RE: 2003-4 E450 V-10: Any engine, transmission, chassis issues?

we, too, have the 2003 e450 (2002 chassis) v-10. DH drives with the same lead foot he uses for the car, so can't say anything about the mpg, but have had no problems with the vehicle or the cabin with 2 slides. it's been more than adequate, meeting and beating expectations. we've tried to do normal maintenance......currently due to exercise the genny soon as I can negotiate the snow. love that thing!

RE: v10 gas mileage

that is almost exactly what the DH gets. I've harped on lightening up on the gas peddle, but the man only knows one speed--usually pushing speed limits. he said he tried going easier once (not a full tank, i'm sure) and ended up with the same mileage, but we didn't buy it for the mileage.

RE: To Cover or Not to Cover That is the Question?

we bought an Adco "on sale", expensive, that didn't fit real well and tho was lashed down pretty good rubbed sufficiently in the winter winds to wear holes thru at the awning hardware. no, it didn't get repaired while the tears were small and certainly ripped further last year. this year (3rd year), ripped completely apart--seems more like a paper fabric that anything that would protect it thru inclement weather. i suspect any protection is UV/sun.....and that's really where the damage comes anyway; not winter rain/snow. i gave up trying to get the DH to cover the rear of the unit where all the summer sun bakes the exterior surface. my vote--if we could afford a carport--would go that direction.

RE: Motorcycle trailor

we off-loaded the bikes and unhitched. owner had a spot for the trailer. hitched back up for onloading when we were ready to leave. it was in a hilly site, uneven ground; lots of trees and not terribly easy to manuever. only tried that once.
