Bought one!

Thanks for all the great posts and advice over the past 18 months. We bought a 2007 Allegro Bus from Woodard Auto and RV in Huntsville, AL.

Staying a month - a New Optimal time to stay before moving on for us

Well, we're both still working so we don't have a lot of time during the week other than a few evenings, and a 1 month stay ensures that we have at leas...

I'm not much of a fan of the pull out desk top in the entertainment/fireplace found in many 5ers due to it obstructing the TV view when it is being used as a desk, and I have not seen much in the way of innovation lately that I can recall in RV furniture, although a new Winnebago model has a bed/sofa/desk conv...

Electric heaters

Upon doing research for winter sites in the south, I have found many places do not allow electric heaters or electric blankets even though they are 30/50 amp sites. Does anyone know if this applies to people who stay monthly and pay their own electric as well?

Not sure if this is the correct place to bring up this question. In reading the comments by the 2014 class, it seems that quite a few are making South Dakota their state of residency. In doing so, do you need to change your POA-HC, Will, and other documents that are state specific? Do you also need to chang...

Craig and I are holed up here in Elkhart, IN in a hotel room. We found out today that our 5er will probably not be ready for several more days. We have been in this hotel room too long and need to get to the woods. Can someone recommend a cabin somewhere in the area or just over the Michigan border on a lake?...
