    That said, your wife can use the facilities, fix lunch, et while you are driving. No time lost.

    Problem is, now that I've aged gracefully, I need the facilities more than she does! :)

    To the OP, I've never owned a 5th wheeler, but I have had travel trailers. For me, the motor home offers significant advantages ... but I've seen some darn nice 5ers out there!

    What's interesting is that they (parks near to us) prohibit pit bulls and rottys, yet don't apply the same logic to doberman's and german shepards -- 2 breeds also known for aggressive behavior and attack characteristics. We own an English Bulldog and a very gentle pit bull mix breed dog. Neither are aggressive. Last weekend we were camped at a lovely campsite in Redding and next to our site was a couple with a small, yapping dog that was far more of an issue for me.

    We simply don't visit parks that restrict our pets.

    Hi. Carl and Ada here, home based in Medford Oregon. We just upgraded our 95 Tropical to an 08 Jayco Seneca HD 35GS last week -- haven't taken delivery on it because we're taking delivery in Oregon rather than California where it was purchased. Anxiously awaiting getting our hands on it and doing our shakedown cruise with it. We travel with an English Bulldog, a sweetheart of a pit bull mix, and a Burmese cat. We're both retired, me from the US Submarine Service and Ada from the VA Medical Center. When I'm not traveling, I'm either on the golf course or tooling down the road on my bicycle.

    I am interested in purchasing a RV Navigation system for our class A Thor Motor Coach. I have read about these 7" screens:Garmin's RV 760LMT, Magellan's RV9365T-LMB and Good Sam RVND7725. Does anyone know the pros and cons of either?

    With my previous coach, I purchased a Garmin 760 with the intent to use their wireless cam system. The 760 was great. Bluetooth, voice command, quick. Problem that I had was the backup camera. The first camera wouldn't link up, so I returned it for a replacement. Same problem with the second camera. I concluded that the issue may well be the 760 itself, so I returned everything. Haven't replaced the GPS yet for the new coach.

    I'm not debating whether to go with the Garmin again or to opt to go to the Magellan. Bluetooth is important to me so that I can have hands free phone use while driving (if needed). I believe both units have it. The Garmin does have voice command which is very nice. Don't think the Magellan has that. 7 inch screen is very nice. I'm leaning toward the Garmin, but there's a significant price differential between the two units (Garmin being higher priced, of course).

    Let me know which way you go and your thoughts.
