Recommended Long-Term RV Parks in Brookings OR
wayne77590 replied to ddrischell's topic in Campgrounds
Most lodges require membership, not particularly in that lodge but some lodge. Then you get to stay there as a guest. Sign up for campgrounds.rvlife.com/. Brookings has several campgrounds. Or, bring up Brookings, OR on google maps and in the left pain search bar type in ... RV Parks and hit enter. It will populate the page. Gold Beach is about 25 miles further up The 101. Take the air boat ride, it's worth it, but I think I'd do it in Summer time. -
Alarms do have a tendency to scare away some thieves, but with a sawzall and 2 minutes or less to remove a cat converter, respond time would be dependent if a patrol car were nearby. Those are the chances thieves take knowing the outcome if they are caught. Short time in prison, parole, do it all over again. Curious, were the MH's gas or diesel? There are some motorcycle alarms that work off of vibration if it could be anchored to the converter. Sure would get there attention.

Oh my, yes! Buffalo last week or so had 80 inches of snow. I can't walk in stuff like that I'd never see where I'm going. -

I like our area. Texas City, TX Yearly Weather. Texas City is at latitude is 29.3838N, and that latitude runs close through Gainesville, FL. Yep, gets cold and sometimes below the 32˚ mark but only for a few hours. There have been exceptions but overall we are a good clime. -
Thanks Don. Good to know he is on the mend.

Well, consider the MH being in the shop was fortunate otherwise you could have been in Ft Myers!🤡 -
A four corners weighing is much more efficient that axle weighing. Allows for better distribution of load. With that said, if you have not weighed your RV then by all means inflate it to the Mfg placard weigh, in your case 120 psi. I have yet to weigh mine, only because the opportunity has not presented itself. My GVWR is 45,600 and I run 120 psi. I'm going to get it weighed soon, but so far I'm happy with the placard tire pressure.

What is your exit strategy for when you can no longer drive your RV?
wayne77590 replied to aztec7fan's topic in Full-timing
I'm 81 years old. I don't know how many more years I have driving the RV. DW tells me now that I'm a good MH driver but a terrible car driver. When the time comes I'll stay in the bricks & sticks that we presently own until the time comes when either is called up. My sons inherit everything in the garage, shed, and junk rooms. We enjoy traveling and typically leave Texas for cooler areas in the Summer. This year we were gone 15 weeks. I'm sure next year will be the same or even longer, God willing. -

wayne77590 replied to iggy's topic in Membership/Benefits
I would suggest anyone interested in joining look up FMCAssist. The price of membership is worth that program in mhop. -
Yes, please. I have used AF1 for over a decade and about to put another one in our newer ride.

2020 LIncoln Nautilus as TOAD
wayne77590 replied to wayne77590's topic in Toads-Towed Behind Motorhome
Yes, also glad! Most likely will be our last car. Rather late in life but I still have life left to drive the Beauty. Watched the video on the base plate install. All I can say is that I don't want to stand around and watch. Reminds me of my day back in 1984 installing two way radios. Gentlman cam in with a Porche for an install. Was going to do the simple lip mount on the hatchback. Nope, to tight trying to close it so I asked the person, "How long are you going to have this car." He replied that he was going to keep it for at least 4 years. I told him that a 3/4 inch hole for an antenna could be patched up and repainted and look like new. He shrugged his shoulders and said to go ahead. He was standing by the car, I got the 3/4 drill bit, put it in the drill, pulled the trigger and it when zip zip. I said, "Are you going to watch?" He looked at me and quickly walked away. Most likely what I would do with a base plate install on a Lincoln Nautilus. Just looking for someone with some experience towing it. -
Purchased subject, 2020 Lincoln Nautilus Reserve, 2.7L AWD. Very familiar with the owners manual and instructions on Manual Park Brake release. Does anyone have anything to share on possible problems to be encountered. Only need it on the 2020 please.
