| Fulltimer advice sought (finding a tow vehicle) | 28 Feb 2005 21:48 GMT | 34 |
Can anyone refer me to a good site to read about axle ratios? After years of touring (camping) with our Class-C we are looking into the 5th wheel market now that we have more time. As that we are fond of something just under 30'ft. and at least 11,000 lbs.

We're thinking of upgrading from our Pop up (pulled by a Honda Odyssey) to a Class A - possibly a Winnebago Sightseer 29R. All I've ever driven is an automobile. What is it like to drive a Class A - on a 4-lane, on a 2-lane, on-coming truck, windy days, twisty roads, driving in ...

We left one CG yesterday and started driving. I stopped for lunch and turned the inverter (300 Watt unit) on so we could catch some news on TV. Nada. Wouldn't come on. So we continued on to the next place (Holiday RV in LAs Vegas) and

| A question for you'all fulltimers. | 24 Feb 2005 00:43 GMT | 6 |
After taking ever longer trips in the ol' Class C in the pre-retirement days, I am about to cruise out for an indefinite period - at least. The one problem is mail. What do fulltimers do when they start down the road and leave no permanent address behind them? Like for mail.
