FMCA/FMA/FRVA/ etc, raised dues a few years ago by a few dollars and there was such a drop in membership renewal that they had a dues rollback very quickly. Just look to Washington and you should realize you can't tax (raise dues) your way to prosperity. "This is a long term recognition that we are a great resource and the changing RV marketplace". Are you kidding me, there are no resources available from FMCA that aren't available free or for a reasonable cost from other groups. I know, the medical evacuation plan, but do you really believe the younger crowd you're trying to attract will be interested since they rarely travel more than a few miles from home on their weekend trips? Apparently, Escapees and Good Sam are hemorrhaging but their leadership had the wisdom to cut their losses and move on. How many more major rally's can FMCA finance when they are all losing operations? IMHO, FMCA will fail and not because there aren't enough members but because the leadership has failed to lead.

Its not a law its a regulation. You know how those blue states stick together.

One would think FMCA would be all over this but I understand Newmar reached out to them and never received a response.

I've read your post 7 times over the past two days and I'm still not sure what you're trying to do. What part does the PI have to do with using your house batteries to power the trailer. My house batteries are wired to my inverter and my portable PI is only used when I connect it to the park pedestal and then connect my 50amp cord to the PI. What am I missing?

Google is an amazing tool. https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/propane-locations#/find/nearest?fuel=LPG https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.qvyshift.lpg&hl=en_US

Are you sure its not part of the inverter?

A carbon monoxide (CO) detector in a camper might beep for a number of reasons, including: Hydrogen gas: Hydrogen gas can trigger a CO detector because it's detected in the same way as carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide detected: Four beeps with a pause indicate that carbon monoxide is present. Move to fresh air and call emergency services. Low batteries: One beep per minute indicates that the batteries need to be replaced. End of life: Five beeps per minute indicate that the detector needs to be replaced. Most CO detectors last 5–7 years, even if the batteries are still good. Malfunction: A malfunctioning CO detector will typically beep. High humidity: If the detector is located in a bathroom or near a bathroom, high humidity from steam can trigger it.

As you are aware, the weather is going to be a huge factor for this trip and you are covering lots and lots of miles in 8 weeks. Many campgrounds and parks will be closed for the season so planning is going to be very important. We are traveling in southern Utah and some parks began closing today, Oct 1. Plan on boondocking occasionally until you get to the southern part of the country. Check which if any states will require chains for your coach. I assume you will be towing a toad. Good luck.

I'm curious where the letter is that allegedly has been in the works since August 29? It only took 17 days to write the Declaration of Independence so you still have some time I guess. 😂

Great gesture on NIRV's part. Are there very many dealerships with camping spots?

No email either. My membership expires in October.

I'm sure its another cost savings program.

Every good cow eventually goes dry.

Wow, Ross! Now you're messing with their wallet and they will never go for that. It's like asking Congress to vote on term limits.
