I'm new and in the acquisition stage. I've been aware that leveling was of some concern. But reading these posts generates some worry as I don't anticipate spending much time in civilized...

I agree that safety is certainly important. Yet, not to be too curmudgeonly here, if your RV was safe when you bought it, why can't it be safe enough ten years later. If you drove it safely ten years...

As pointed out, technology advances constantly. That doesn't necessarily mean one has to have it. If a vehicle gives you pleasure today and serves your purpose, why shouldn't it in ten years? I come...

I've been wanting a satellite com device for years as I do a fair amount of very remote travel, often solo. The reviews consistently put the In-Reach at the top of the heap - except that the...

Totally onboard with you Doneworking. Me too. I take advantage of GPS in my car and on the trail. But, on numerous occasions on a long drive, passengers will ask "where are we?" and my answer is "I...

Thanks, gregmchugh. You have an amazing vehicle but one that's beyond my reach. I'd bet you could earn gas money charging for tours of it. I tend to try to maintain a fairly low profile so it would...

Wow gregmchugh, that's amazing. It does look like it can go anywhere. However, is this one of those vehicles that, if you have to ask what the mpg's are, you can't have one?

You give an excellent summary of the ClassB limiting factors. I think, like you, I would benefit from the higher clearance just to get off the highway. After that 4wd would be optional though...

I still sometimes monitor or partake in CB conversations along the way. But their, roughly, 5 mile range is a limiting factor if you have problems in a very remote area. Otherwise, I onboard with...

I don't think I've ever gotten rid of a vehicle of mine that had less than 200k miles on it. I'm hoping I can do the same with my first and, perhaps, my only ClassB. Their value seems to depreciate...

Just to clarify. My intentions do not include picking up companions along the way! More of a scheduling issue. I did some looking, online, at the Travato. I loved the enhanced bathroom space. However...

Great advice and photos. They look like the kinds of places I'd typically go. I like your squeak solutions. I suspect you'll miss that extra floor space moving from the 170 down. Another trade-off -...

I expect most of my travel will be solo but I expect I'll have a companion along for parts of the trip as they're available. As far as cooking, I'm not very creative, or interested, in that...

Yet, isn't outdoor storage the reality for most people. I know RV'rs can be a fastidious lot. I've seen people at rest stops washing their units! Why? What's the point when they'll be dusty dirty...

Thanks Hondo. Your post gives me a little more optimism for getting one of these units up and off the highway. Your post led me to others that seek to do the same. I will, clearly, need to enhance my...

I am brand new here but have been looking into Class B units for several years. I love their compactness and mpg's. They have everything I need except, possibly, the ability to go where I want to go....
