RE: Adding Dishwasher, anyone has this done?
Shouldn't be a problem if supply, waste and power are in proper location. We have one but use it to store dog treats. Wife says she never had one can't see why she would need one now when there are only the two of us. Also you need a reliable water, sewer and power something we often go weeks without.

RE: Pilot RV Plus Card
I have the Good Sam card but I don't use it for a discount and by that I mean if they give a discount fine if they don't that's fine too. I stop for fuel at a Pilot or Flying J because it is convenient but don't make it my go to for fuel.

RE: washer and dryer or combo
One reason we fulltime is our Splendide. Wife said 36 years with her own W/D she wasn't going back to laundromat. We went with the all in one unit to save space. We have a small freezer next to it which serves us well.

RE: Thinking about a new sink and faucet
Faucets are pretty much the same sinks for RVs are smaller than normal residential sizes. I've replaced faucets in both our present and past 5er with big box purchases. I've also replaced sinks with residential size but not without some remodeling.

RE: Stink Bugs
You can blame them on us. We volunteered in New Jersey in 2014 up in the NW area of the state. We didn't know anything about stink bugs then but we did have a few. Our volunteer position was over after Labor Day so we packed up and pulled in our slides and that was when we were overrun with stink bugs. Hundreds and hundreds of them. Little stinkers were everywhere on the slides. All I can say is we were chasing stinkbugs out of the 5er for the next 10 months from NJ through Chicago suburbs down to Missouri and Kansas into Texas after a winter in Texas we headed north to Alaska chasing out stinkbugs all along the way. Sorry.

RE: Frameless Dual Panes - Better or Worse?
We have frameless dual pane. No complaints, they do cutdown noise. We tend to spend most of our time where AC is needed more than heat.

RE: Help a Newbie, question about gas vs. diesel
As a full-time rver diesel is for me the way to go. If I was a weekender gas would be my choice. Last year we traveled 15,000+ miles this year will be closer to 5,000.
How many miles for the weekender in a year. $9,000 can buy a lot of gas.
So my choice would be a 350-3500 gasser.

RE: snowbirding
We've spent several winters in Florida, Alabama and Louisana if you have any sense it's easy to avoid gators. It's the snakes you be careful of.

RE: I need a large 5th wheel but am I looking too large?
If you have the cash check out New Horizons they build custom 5th wheels. If you go over 44ft you will limit your access to most public camp grounds.
You should Google 5wheel bunkhouses you may find something there, I do recall seeing some bunkhouse models that separate bunk spaces.

RE: Financing question
We purchased our first 5er out of state but financed through our credit union. All we needed was a signed contract. We put 20percent down and paid taxes, title,Ang tags. CU gave us a check made out to the dealer and me. Drove 550 the next day and picked up the 5er the following day. Our present 5er we purchased sight unseen, the one in my sig. Due to an inheritance only difference was between asking price and value of trade-in.

RE: Miles per day.
We aim for 250 miles a day, sometimes more sometimes less. We enjoy breakfast and on the road by 9:30 want to be where we want to be by 3:30. Back in the day when we called it vacation we would push it, drive all night taking turns at the wheel. ??

RE: Inverter Use
Hi All, Has anyone tried running their RV fridge on a basic inverter.
In my case I have easy access to the plug on my fridge. I would disconnect the plug from the 110v outlet and plug it into an inverter. What size inverter would I need for a 3.7 size Norcold Fridge. I was thinking at least a 750W.
2012 Tacoma
2018 Prolite Plus S
The question is why go to that trouble when you can run it on gas?

RE: RV lifestyle...
Why does how other people choose to set up their camp site or how long they spend doing it bother you? If they aren't infringing on your site or otherwise breaking the rules of the camp ground, why does it motivate a self proclaimed "Live and let live" guy to come on here and make fun of how they do things? It sounds like you are anything but a "Live and Let Live Guy". If they don't set up camp just like you and to your standards of camping etiquette, you think it's funny and feel it necessary to make a post on here about it. Why don't you walk over to them and tell them just how much comedic value you find in their set up and let them know you already went on line and posted about it. Then come back here and tell us all how well that went!
No more than an observation. I enjoyed the replies till yours but that's life.
