| Forum input | RVing wannabes | Have read some postings regarding people who might be looking to hook up for a trip to Alaska- we are in MN and plan on a long trip to Alaska this summer- going by land one way and taking the ferry marine highway for a stretch also- would love to see if we could pull together a small caravan somewhere in the states to make the trip to share the fun. Have rv'd for shorter trips for many years- ready to take it to the next level. Would not be able to share our rv with other travelers- (only one real sleeping space)but rather share the trip with others who have rv's/ camping gear going in the same direction (love to cook and bake- would love to share that occasionally). The other possibity would be to join a tour guided caravan- mainly looking for the social aspects of the trip- so if we can pull together a small group- would prefer that I think. Let me know if you have similar thoughts- omagrau@yahoo.com
We are a late 50's couple- open to traveling with others of any age and the more diverse interest the better experience I would think - love to have somone that can teach me something about fly fishing!. | See RoTi item |

| Re: Why diesel costs more than gas | Rick | I think we have a refinery problem in the U.S. This of course is caused by the main problem; the environmentalist lobby and weak politicians, but that's for another comment board. Apparently, the supply/demand for diesel and gasoline is kept somewhat balanced with our very limited refinery capacity. When talking such huge volumes, this can be a difficult task. So when supplies of diesel and heating oil hit highs, they cut production and switch to gasoline production and vice versa. Meanwhile, since we're generally short on refining capacity, tankers coming from Alaska, Canada and Mexico (where the majority of our foreign oil comes from) that can't unload their crude oil in a timely manner are diverted to other markets. So, if you want to solve the high cost of fuel in America, build more refineries, drill for more domestic oil in ANWR and build nuclear plants to reduce the demand for fuel oil. Again, environmentalists and weak politicians are the primary problem. | See RoTi item |
| Don't want to fulltime alone | Lee | Although I have been a part-time RV'er for several years, I am now going to go fulltime having recently sold my home in Alaska, but don't want to do it alone. About me: I'm a widower, retired military, on SS - which suggests I'm 60+.LOL.(Although I don't look, feel, or act 60+). Now that I'm "homeless" except for a 38' class A diesel pusher with all the whistle and bells, I'm still missing that most important "BELLE" to make my life complete. I plan to begin my 2009/2010 funfilled adventure with a cruise out of Florida then work my way across the southern states toward Calif. (did I say "work"-shame on me). If these plans, life and adventure sounds appealing to you, then we need to get to know each other and soon. Contact me a 1-228-342-3570, or email me lworthen@acsalaska.net or leeworthen@yahoo.com, 11/16/2009.

| Re: Fulltiming | Becky | I've owned a Class C, and miss it, but am doing fine in a Chevy van I converted myself. I'm 54, single, non-smoker, healthy and happy. I'm a writer/photographer so anywhere I have wifi, I can work. I travel with my Rottweiler and am looking for other "van dwellers," boon dockers and campers who can recommend great campgrounds, boon docking sites, places to see or go. I'd like to caravan with one or more folks to someplace like Alaska next spring. Am not looking for love, just friends and traveling partners. Email me at rvyoda@gmail.com. | See RoTi item |

| Re: Holiday Rambler Traveler Class C | Marguerite Breda | We need to rent a class C to transport my father from Baltimore, MD to a nursing home on Long Island, NY. We have owned a fifth wheel for the past eight years and have rented claa Cs in MD and Alaska before that so we know how to handle the RV. We need a class C because my 97 yr old father can not travel in a car or truck comfortablly anymore. Does anyone know where to rent a class C? bredatxtx@hotmail.com
Thanks for any help you can give.

| Re: Carriage Compass fifth wheel | Audrey | We bought a used Carriage 5th wheel 37'with 3 slides. Traveled to Alaska and out West and back to Maine. It was the first 5th wheel we looked at and the one we decided to buy because of the way it was made and designed. | See RoTi item |
