One sure way to encourage visits from myself and other motorhome travelers is for towns such as yours to rescind the proposed overnight truck/RV parking ordinance. I recently listened to a Mike Huckabee TV show about your state of Indiana, and the perils the citizens are facing because of the downturn in RV sales. Since Indiana is probably the largest producer of RV's in the world, I am sure you see the folly that your proposed ordinance would have on the image of your state towards the RV industry. Surely, a learned group of government officials can find a way to control noise and truck traffic without impacting the RV traveling public. Failure to recognize the feelings of RV travelers as a group will only show the politicians disregard for this industry. I trust you will give this your utmost and serious attention as a date for this vote approaches. Maybe one of these days, our paths will cross. I will bring good feelings, and my purchasing power, and when I leave, only my tire tracks will remain. Hopefully you will feel good as will I about my visit. Gary D.

tnbandit2 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 Your comments probably fall on deaf ears. Indiana also adds sales tax to the advertised price of diesel. We avoid purchasing fuel in that state, whenever possible. WHAT ARE THEY THINKING?
