SallyRe: TAB teardrop trailerpermalinkWe plan to take out T@B across country this summer along with 4 bicycles and two kayaks.

Dr. R AldermanRe: Would you buy an RV made in China?permalinkI lived in China and saw the massive usage and abuse of Chinese built buses. They are extraordinarily well built.

TWRe: Fleetwood Evolution Camping TrailerpermalinkI have a 2007 E3. I've had many of the problems cited by others here including lousy water lines and a leaky roof. My main complaint is the extremely poor customer service by Fleetwood. I couldn't get them to answer most of my questions about the roof. I finally decided to have the roof coated with Line-X (a material typically used as a truck bed liner) as suggested by my dealer. It was slightly less expensive than shipping a new roof and the manufacturer of the roof material said it would be a viable repair option. Hopefully, it'll work. I wouldn't buy another Fleetwood camper mainly because of their abysmal customer service.See RoTi item
SharonRe: Overnighting at WalMartpermalinkI saw several entries asking if there is a WalMart on such and such road. If you buy a road atlas from WalMart or Sam's Club, in the back is a list of WalMarts in every state. It also lists Sams Clubs. It even tells which ones have gas or not. However, it doesnt indicate if they allow overnight stays. FYISee RoTi item
HHg in AustinRe: Coachmen Prism class C motorhomepermalinkWe have the 2009 Prism M230 and LOVE IT !! We have experienced NONE of the earlier mentioned issues. Cabinets are great, full drawer sliders, great use of space. The Freighliner chassis w/the Mercedes diesel does get very close to the advertised MPG,..as we get between 16-17mpg. The only issue I would mention is the dealer we bought from,....they may be "BIG",.....but their service is terrible,...so use caution when selecting a dealer ! HHgSee RoTi item
Upset Cajun2010 North Trail 32BudspermalinkWe are having a lot of problems with our new camper. Ex: cable and electrical wires not hooked up correctly at the outlets. Ceiling light in bunk room installed by the manufacture in the wrong place. All the outside compartments and door had to be resealed. Having some type of moisture issue on the front outside panel, that they have yet to remove and figure out the problem. We have owned this unit for three months and it has been in the repair shop for two out of the three months. Has anyone had any problems with this name brand or model? See RoTi item
BriRe:Steven King house in Bangor MainepermalinkI have lived in Maine my entire life. I guess that it just kind of hit me how famous Stephen King actually is. I don't really understand why people would drive hours just to see his house. My stepdad actually used to talk to him quite frequently, and from what I've heard he's a really cool guy. It's Maine people, not Hollywood. Haha, everyone needs to chill with the sightseeing. He's just a regular guy who writes good books.See RoTi item
CherRe: Would you buy an RV made in China?permalinkNo thank you to China..For me, just because they can out cheap us,doesn't mean I should have no choices what to buy,and in many products it is just china..many will still spend the money to buy American products..we've been taught that cheap is it..do you really believe there is a comparison..even some with money have to buy inferior as it is cheap..but this is still America we should still have choices and they are removing the choices,I don't want cheap..I don't want dirty fumigation all over my very precious personal stuff, you know it is all tarped and fumigated the same as a house being fumigated for termites using Chloropicrin (Tear gas) has a strong odor...when did Americans get so lethargic anyway..they are continuing to downgrade us daily..wake up people..hear about the gravel roads in parts of America..they can't afford to repair with asphalt..get a grip..it will continue 'til we have little of greatness here in America.See RoTi item

Savin4My1stRe: Cummins 2010 - near zero emissionspermalinkWell-made documentary short on the history and appeal of RVing in America. Interesting use of old stills and film clips coupled with the usual lush exterior "glamor" shots.The two interviews with "Mr. Suit" and "Mr. Denim" were fortunately brief and sufficiently informative to help convince me to start saving for that perfect small ultralight travel trailer.

RogerRe: Northstar Freedom truck camperpermalinkI have been looking and comparing Truck Campers for over a year.This one has a lower base price than others, however, after you add in all the other ammenties the the others have it is more expensive. Also that portable pottie is hell to handle at a dump station. Spring for another brand!See RoTi item
Yves LacombeRe: Forest River Flagstaff tent camperpermalinkHave a 620ST for the past two years. It's a fine camper. I would trade the electric winch for a crank one but haven't experienced the freefall phenomenon the previous poster mentionned. Minor quality issues that were fixed by the dealer with no problems at all. Very happy so far. -- YvesSee RoTi item
RJSRe: Keystone Cougar fifth wheelpermalink2010 Cougar 27 foot; major problem with remote control for slide and front jacks.

the origional WANDER WAGON '75Re: RV quality concernspermalinkI reside within a 1987 Apollo 3000RB motor home. It is very well built. You could put it on its roof and it will stay together! The difference in todays coaches is the cost of fuel resulting in the reduction of weight requirments. I have been employed over the years working on the assembly lines of various RVs such as field n stream, open road, scotsman, mobile scout, etc. I have never found a rig to be as solidly built as these are. Their appearance varied little all the way up to 1991 including the out side colors. the main difference from my coach and the 1991 coach was the larger windows. My cabnets have never needed repairs. They are all solid, ( not frame and panneling stick and staple)I have redecorated mine as 1800 style with embosed cieling and fabric wall covering, period carpet, and a small chandelier. Window coverings are with swag and tassle. It's kinda like the railroad coach in "The Wild Wild West!" My main complaint is with the copper plumbing as it tends to burst in subzero weather. the waer heater is 3 way with lp gas, electric, or heat from the engine. It has the built in vacume system, and a lot of kitchen gadgets, linnen and wardrobe, bar/entertainment center with icemaker, two furnaces, two airconditioners etc. It is nothing but sturdy! But at 9 miles per gallon, I can't afford to roam around the country as I once did! I would rather part with my wife and dog befor I'd give up this coach! They don't build them like they use to!

RVing wannabesForum inputpermalinkHave 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
George M SuttonRe: EverGreen Ever-Lite travel trailerpermalinkMy dealership is always looking for niche products that make sense. When we took on the EverGreen, three units were sold before they even hit our lot, a first for us. We specialize in Airstream, Earthbound, Komfort's new Resort and a host of other products you can find at suttonrv.com Personally, we have found the fit and finish of the EverGreen units coming into our inventory to be superb! Not only are they very light weight, they are the Industry leader in the Green movement. We love this product line and we have been making some fantastic deals with folks from all over the USA and Canada.See RoTi item
George M Sutton Re: TAB teardrop trailerpermalinkDuring the course of Tab's production, my dealership was the largest and most successful dealership selling Tabs and Tada's in the nation. When we heard they were going out of production, we purchased every unit they had left on the production line. Although we have sold most of them, we do have them available at significant savings...which is why they have sold so quickly. Check out suttonrv.com and look up the Tab inventory. You can buy a new one for the price of used...and you get the warranty, too.See RoTi item
George M Sutton RvRe: Airstream Safari Sport travel trailer permalinkThe Airstream product is unique because it takes 10 times the amount of labor to build compared to a standard travel trailer. The Airstream has the best supension, the highest quality of components, and a shape that allows it to tow better than any other travel trailer on the market. The value of an Airstream is more easily understood when given the proper information. For a good education about the Airstream story, I suggest you call or write suttonrv.com See RoTi item
NortherngalRe: Coachmen Prism class C motorhomepermalinkJanuary, 2010. We are downsizing from a 38' diesel pusher... we saw a Prism 400 miles from us for sale.. 2009, but never titled. We made the trip and it was the biggest disappointment. The coach looked so good on the outside..stepping in, it still looked good. When you began to really look things over, it was a real flop. The overhead cabinet door would only open about 1/2 way. You would have to struggle to put anything bulky in.. the couches were so deep, if you were 5'4" such as I am, your legs stuck straight out. The wash basin vessel was completely out of place and corner storage cupboards wouldn't hold but one roll of toilet paper. The pleated shades had little pieces of foam on the underside to keep them quiet while driving with them down. The ambient, rope lighting, was falling down, but worst of all, was the 4" or less foam mattress on the hida-bed. When the bed was extended, the foam wouldn't relax at either end, but if you sat on the edge, you sunk to the frame. The outside storage compartment doors required you to bend over to see what was inside. The outside was attractive, but the unit is not liveable. I guess, that's why they took it off the assembly line for 2010. Anyway, here again, the pictures were great, the coach was not.See RoTi item
