What's your setup? How often you get out? Any cool road trip stories?

One time Peej fingerbanged his sister-in-law or cousin or niece at a trailer park.

That’s all I got.

Ive rented them 3 times. Did a 4000 mile road trip from BR to Carlsbad Caverns, White Sands, Cloudcroft, Saguaro NP, Sedona, Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Painted Desert, Petrified Forest, Route 66, and back to BR. Was a fun trip

Not me, but if you travel I-12 between Hammond and Baton Rouge, there’s always $1B worth of inventory in view from the interstate. So, I’m assuming there’s a lot.

Used to have a freightliner toter with a 53’ trailer both with living quarters for racing. We’d stay at the track to save money.

Coolest story was mooning the speed cameras in Arizona going to the street car super nats in Vegas. Getting those tickets in the mail made me LOL. I didn’t pay them.

I've rented twice, had a great time. Glad I rented instead of purchasing. Yes renting is expensive, but not as expensive as owning.

I've been from Florida to California in a RV, the worst roads by a long shot were in MS and LA. That's all I got.

That's not camping, it's glamping.

Ask about the key club when you get to the campground.

I rent vs own right now. It’s easier in some ways and storage for one is a bitch.

I love the fact everything I need is at hand and we can boondock pretty much anywhere.

We did a trip from Dallas to eastern Colorado to Wyoming to the black hills to eastern South Dakota and back a few years ago. Over 3,500 miles in about 3 weeks. Great trip.


After my youngest graduates high school I’m getting one and living in it full time.

I'm retiring somewhat soon and am looking to get one. Currently have my eye on this one. Yes, it's small, but it'll just be me. I don't want a rolling condominium.
Just need a place to sleep, shower, and shite. The rest of the time I'll be outside.

Checking in. Spent November 4 - 28 in the Keys. 2,400 R/T. Drive until tired and stop at a rest area or a Cracker Barrel for 2-4 hours sleep. Rinse and repeat.

I had to get an RV to justify the 5th wheel super duty.

Looks great with the camlocker toolbox and extended tow mirrors.

I moved into my 5th wheel last weekend. I will be living out of it for at least 3 months while the house is being fully remodeled.

We camp all the time and the Grand Design 5th wheel is easy to set up and we enjoy it.

These next 3 months are going to be interesting though.

Bought a Forest River Vibe 14 months ago.

Used it twice.

Now, I’m about to sell it because it collects dust.

I have a Fleetwood Discovery LXE 44 footer and it has been the best purchase I have ever made. Use it at least once a month.

Comes in handy for hurricane evacuations.
We have a 28 foot camper and use it once or twice a month. I think renting would be 350ish a weekend. Our note is 250ish. We come out ahead.
