Herman is North of I-30, that alone makes him a re located Texan into Yankee Territory! WBill is a re located Yankee and still one! Joe, just buy south of I-20 and you'll be Texan! South of DFW area, is nice open country to live in...even if you work in DFW! Crime you get anywhere in the World these days. Dickinson, Texas or DFW or Lancaster, PA. it's all the same! -
Jim S. Pull the fuse or disconnect the wire!
-
Norm. Any time or questions, we are here to answer! Remember, there is no dumb questions!
-
WBill. Was that "No Chip", meant for me? My Visa has a chip! the charges are paid almost instantly out of my cash account...CMA Card. I cut up my AE black card a long time ago!
-
Good question! Joe. Think you can re phrase that Statement? Geez!
-
Joe S. I ran into that at Shell in AZ last Winter for FMCA at chandler. Was told that all Shell stations only excepted debit cards with chip! We limped into Casa Grande Pilot. Linda took 81+ gallons on a 100 gallon tank, I took 112 gallons! We have not used Shell since. We have heard that it's the same thing nation wide. I always go in and have them run $300-$400 on my card as credit...it's a Visa Credit/Debit card (I don't do pin numbers). Pump my fuel, go back in get my receipt for gallons pumped and price. I really don't mind it, you got to keep circulation moving & it's generally every other day when on the road, when Linda is in my rig, then it's 3 days between. Since my Visa has no limit, I only call them before a large purchase...like 2 R/T, first class tickets to Norway.

Are you in a Class A, B or C? Do you have a back up camera? You do need to practice and the more you do, the better you get. At this point I have Linda to help me, but for 26 years I was on my own. Sometimes, a fellow camper would help, but most times it was just me! Herman is right, you have got to get a clear picture in your mind as to where everything is! The markers that I use is the Table and any trees, look for low branches and same that may overlap part of parking space. Joe S. and Jim S. Is right also. Back stop and look around, is probably your best option, until you get used to backing in! Above all else, DO NOT GET IN A HURRY!!!

That's not fair...fearless leader! I was going to say that.
-
DFW. Has not been any warmer that in Burnet, TX. Been at this ranch since December, we ran away to the Camp in Three Rivers for a week in January and it snowed more there than in Burnet, when we left. Yes Sir, you do need heated tiles in the Bus. Just surprised that it and AGM is an option...I had a 2011 AB and it was part of the package deal...speaking of deal. If you don't get a minimum of 30% off on MSRP...Walk away! I got my first class A in 1967! On my 17th now.

Wayne. it might have been on HWY 646.
-
Wayne. I moved out and my best friend moved in with his 5'er, he had a cop's coach next to him (used to be next to me). Yea, they came in thru the back and did a number on a lot of 5'rs and coaches! Can't remember the year, but it was a facility on Hwy.99 East of I-45...I was there only 3 months, I don't like pole sheds and my 40 foot stuck out 10 feet. They got 3 RV's belonging to cops that night.
-
Hi Norm, Welcome! I got both. Did not think I needed heated tiles in Texas and the other Southeast and Southwest states...glad I got them! Also wish I had them in my beach house.. AGM's, I have 10. 2 for chassis and 8 for house. You pay more for them, but you don't have to check the water level and they should be good for 7-9 years! What are you buying?
-
Herman's going to get you for that one! After, he get's finished laughing and get's rid of the visualization!
-
As Jim S. can attest to, it's nice to live in the Country, with acreage! You don't have to worry about parking...Herman has that also on 10ac. Mark, your in one of the few areas of CA. that allows RV parking on property or Street...I had to get a special permit from the City of Santa Monica and Brentwood, just to pick my Mom up...forget parking! That's just drive thru..$$$$
-
Who would have thought it. Most are Labs or Shepherds! Bassets do have the nose... Joe. You bringing the dog to NM? Both of ours will be there.
-
LMAO! Almonds? Smelling something burning and seeing a haze, is never a good thing in a coach! Not good in a house either, but your stationary!
-
I don't miss much of what Wayne writes or says! Problem is, I agree with him & overkill.
-
That makes sense. I tend to forget about death or illness...wish I could do the same with taxes!
-
Per the campground for re- sales ad's each month in FMCA Magazine...there seems to be a lot of folks wanting out, rather than in!
-
When I had 19.5 tires, I used Firestone! Forget Galveston, they have trouble doing a trike, (as in pedal power) There is a Ford Car, light Truck and Truck sales at the junction of Hwy. 225 & Beltway 8, don't know the name.
-
Jim S. When Linda and I was in Indiana last summer, we too found that the shops there (in the Decatur to Bremen area), was a lot cheaper than the norm! Makes sense, 90% of RV's are built there. DD69. You need to get in touch with Bill Adams, he's been searching to find a place to have his 40' XL Prevost painted, only top half of coach, but they want full coach price! Around $35K for 2 colors! Is that because of the name (Prevost), hummm?

Sir, This Post is 20 month's old & is about Chapters in Chicago area!
-
Check out the Storage facility in Rockdale, Texas, owned by Legacy Coach. There is one coming to California, this year!
-
Currently, in a 100' x 45' Pole Barn on 50A....in Fall it will be a 70' x 40' Climate controlled barn for both coaches and toads, with full hook ups! Drive thru. About 200' from house.
