Or old world charm. Bill

I am sorry but for the majority of people $4000. plus $585 a year + the extra charges is to expensive to stay in junky RV parks. I don't believe anyone can get that deal. The reality is what I posted. The deliberate miss leading promotional /advertising about zones is disingenuous at best. South west zone includes 6 states 18 camp grounds 3 states don’t have a camp ground and Nevada and Arizona have one each. The one that I stayed at in Arizona was an Encore Property, Voyager RV Resort & Hotel and was one of the better places. We were parked on a big flat parking lot with hookups, no other amenities. No table, no light, Nothing but pavement. It is primarily for snow birds and is 90-95% permanent park model type structures. I will say this it was one of the only places that had a readymade package of information about the area and some coupons for local attractions. North West Zone includes 9 states 18 campgrounds; 7 states have no campgrounds. Only Oregon and Washington have camp grounds. Saying you have a zone that covers 9 states sounds good but it is actually only 2 states have any campgrounds you can use. The other thing that made/makes me mad is they repeatedly said this was a one-year special deal and I could renew it if I wanted to. Yet they charged my credit card for a renewal without my permission. They said that by singing the original paperwork it became an automatic renewal. I had asked repeatedly if it was a one-year deal and was assured I would have to renew myself or it would end. I looked and my lawyer looked it over and could find no such clause. They refunded my money and we are all happy now. Bill

I was thinking Dutch. Bill

I would look for a Ford dealer that had a medium truck department and call them. If they don't have the equipment they will know who they send their work out to. Bill

Phil, try holding down your battery switch to tie your battery's together. Let us know if that helps. Bill

You must have a very special membership. This is from the rules from TT. They don’t say what you will pay for exceeding the 30 day/night limit it is listed as “Market Price” Members are allotted 30 nights of free camping in any of the Thousand Trails campgrounds covered by your Zone Parking Pass. Additional nights are charged a small service fee. Members may stay up to 14 consecutive nights at any one campground based on availability. Reservations are advised, particularly for longer stays and during holiday periods. Keep in mind that even though camping is complimentary with membership (first 30 days), last-minute cancellations or no shows will be charged cancellation fees. Campers who stay at any Thousand Trails campground for more than four consecutive nights must wait at least one week before camping at another resort in the chain. I have stayed at the Thousand Trails Las Vegas Resort. It took 3 different spots before I found one that had power. As far as location it is out by Sam’s Town and not to convenient to the strip. Staying over the limit there is $120.00 per night. (Market Price) Interesting because I stayed at Oasis for $67.00 for a premium + site. Well ok 3 days were $33.50 because I used Passport America. I am still wondering why/how TT thinks they are worth $120.00 that is the same as thinking Motel 6 is worth $120.00. TT can say they are busy and limit you to 7 days. Not the 14 days. Thousand Trails Long Beach Resort was so tight that to back in to the spot you had to drag the front of the coach through the brush that was up to the edge of the road. Bill

No they are probably worse. I got snared by them about 5 years ago. Keep in mind it is like a condo you have to pay weather you use it or not. The campgrounds are way off the main drag and nasty, tight, bad roads in and out. Plus add on charges. Like if you want 50 Amp that will be an extra $5.00 a night. You can only stay at one of their parks for X days before you have to spend time outside of their system before you can use another of their parks. Some people love them but I am not in that group. Bill

Back to the OP's complaining about Loves. Once you know how they work it is pretty simple. Getting a card is more of a problem than I want for the few times I use them in a year. The place that bugs me with limits is Kroger and only allowing 35 gal when redeeming fuel points. Bill

First thing are your wheels coated or bare? Using an aggressive cleaner will remove the coating and the shine. For bare wheels I like Mouthers polishing ball and cone. Bill

Well if you can read all the negative reports on EW company's and you still want to give them your money, well be my guest. Please tell us how wonderfully they treated you. Bill

Nice coach. Bill

Welcome to the form. What engine and what are your SCA levels? Bill

Welcome to the forum. Tell me how much you will save if you spend over $3600 or more for a policy and you are denied. Do you have every recite for maintence and does it match the factory recommended schedule perfectly? Just saying there are many story's on hear and on different forums about claims being denied for trivial reasons. You might want to do some more research. Bill

Nice Carl, but didn't you need a CDL to get it? I have looked and asked about a card a couple of times and all required a CDL. Bill

We have stayed at Sunny Acres RV Park, 595 N Valley Dr # 75, Las Cruces, NM 88005, sunnyacresrv.com,(575) 524-1716. If you are coming into the San Antonio are on I-10 I would jog up to Fredericksburg. I hilly recommend visiting National Museum of the Pacific War, 340 E Main St, Fredericksburg, TX 78624, pacificwarmuseum.org,(830) 997-8600. This is part of the Smithsonian and they have Admiral Nimitz home. We have stayed at Oakwood RV Resort, 78 FM2093, Fredericksburg, TX 78624, oakwoodrvresort.com, (830) 997-9817.

Something to see when in the RGV is the The United States Marine Corps War Memorial (Iwo Jima Memorial) Well the original plaster working model for it. The original plaster working model for the bronze and granite memorial statue currently stands in Harlingen, Texas at the Marine Military Academy, a private Marine Corps-inspired youth military academy. You can follow I-2 to the coast and South Padre Island. Bill

Ok I know QT but didn't recognize OT. I thought it might be something new like Fuel City or Buc-ee's. Bill

What is OT ? Bill

There are several excellent tools out there and you don't need to buy one of the stand alone GPS/map programs. https://www.rvparky.com/ http://www.rvparkreviews.com/ With these tools and Google Earth and Maps you are pretty well set. Bill

Aparentley you didn't read what I posted about Plantation Place on the outer side of Dallas. So lets get get on with the request and stay away from worrying about the reason I didn't take Tree Top seriously. I will be looking to see what you have contributed to this besides worrying about my looking for rally space over a year ago. I would seriously recommend the OP get RV Parkey and RV park reviews and see what they can find. They have a better idea of what is suitable for them. Bill

Well that is a nice spray pattern. I would call Source Engineering and see what they have. http://sourcerv.com/products Bill

Who is being negative? I have looked on Google Earth, but when we called them about bringing in 25-30 coaches for a small rally. They didn't have space and wouldn't have a club house for us to use. The person commented they were more of a residential community and didn't have much space for transients. So I never drove way over there to look at it. Bill

I am going to throw out another place on the other side (East Side) of Dallas, out buy Lake Ray Hubbard. Plantation Place, 345 Barnes Bridge Rd, Sunnyvale, TX 75182, plantationplacerv.com, (972) 226-0464. They had some damage a while ago from a tornado and I don't know what it is like now. Bill

Thanks for reporting back. Bill

Ok what was it? Bill
