RE: Who uses GPS?

Stick with paper maps unless you want to spend many hours learning to use a GPS. Otherwise you will create lots of problems for yourself.

RE: Opinion on 5th wheel louverd tailgates

The first time you don't lower the new tail gate, you will hit it and then you will lower after that it anyway. At least that's what I do.

RE: dump stations at (Texas) state camgrounds.. what facilities?

You should find a hose without an end attached to the water source at the dump station, it is to wash out the stinky slinky. Bring a hose to wash the tank out, don't use your drinking water hose.

RE: Retirement at 55??

Please look at rv-dreams.com. Plenty of reading of a couple that retired early and their actual expenses of being on the road for several years. I think you should try it, you will love the life.

RE: New Laminate Flooring ( Problem )

I had much problem with my slide catching and ripping apart the laminate on the super slide. My solution was to screw down a beveled carpet trim, from Home Depot on the main floor at the edge of the slide to give the roller a nice solid edge to climb up on. It worked out well and provides a clean edge look.

RE: What age were you when you needed glasses?

You are right on schedule. At your age you need to magnifying readers. Don't spend a lot of money on them go to Walmart pick out the strength and style you like and buy a couple, you will lose the first few pairs anyway. When I got my first readers I thought it was like someone had turned the lights on.
Choose a real eye doctor and surgeon not one of those in a box.

RE: Any electric heaters you really like?

Buy the cheapest one that you like the looks of. 1500 watts is 1500 watts.
I really like the looks of the remote thermostat.

RE: States with no income tax

Domicile In TEXAS, we are too stupid to tax even a millionaire's income. No forms to prepare, nothing because we are TEXANS.
Check with Escapes group in Livingston. They are a very good group to hook up with

RE: What would you do?

Wait until something BIG happens, which it will, and then how will you be able to handle it?
RV's are big and complicated houses that you take with you, you have to learn to roll with the punches. Small problems, are nothing to worry about.
Good Luck in your travels.

RE: What was your biggest RV mistaake?

Thinking the builder actually knew how to build the RV in the first place. Too much marginal material used.
