Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

I actually bought my truck and travel trailer two years ago but unfortunatly I had to deal with those darn health issues. I just turned 37 which is young in RV years but I get along wit...
I know many of you have 5ers and trailers so are not FMCA members. I also know not all motorhome owners join FMCA. But I am sure some RV-Dreamers are going to the FMCA Western Area Rally in Indio, CA January 7th through 11th. It normally attracts about 2,000 motorhomes. We will be there and Diane's pa...

I am looking for a few honest opinions on my blog. Are there too many pictures? Too many ads? Do you like the search functions that were added? Is it too wordy? Do I ask too many questions? www.rvdaydreams.blogspot.com Don -- Edited by Doncat at 10:38, 2008-12-31

Pardon me if many of you already know of this website, but I have been a "lurker" there for years. Just today, I sent a link to Howard and Linda with pictures taken at Kartchner Caverns State Park. I thought I would share the website with everyone. First, the caveat: since it is a photosh...
As we get closer to purchasing, we are considering a used Tiffan - a 42' 2007 Phaeton. What do I lose by not getting it from the dealer? What should I look out for? Have any of you purchased used? Would you do it again? Thanks! Randy & Pam
Hi all, Pam and I have been intrigued by the RV-Dreams family and have been 'members' for 6-7 months as we pursue selling the house and buying an RV. The choice at the moment is a 40' Tiffin/Phaeton Class A diesel. I started our blog: http://warnerrvnews.blogspot.com in an effort to document our pr...
We went and looked at a 2009 Ford F-450 Lariat Crew Cab 4WD. List price with all of the options is approx $63,300. Has anyone got a price from a dealer yet? I know thay are giving everyone the "A" plan price plus an additional $1000. It seems to me the dealer should be giving a discount as we...

Hi All, Just wondering if everyone decorates their rigs for Christmas. Part of the joy of the holidays is driving through the neighborhoods and seeing the sights of Christmas. I'm guessing FT'ers do the same. Any photos? Happy Holidays, Rick
Quick question: We are in the process of making our final selection of Fifth Wheel and subsequently, tow vehicle. However, I read in another forum that for some reason, the Ford 4500 could not use the MorRyde suspension system...? Does that make sense? I mentioned the issue to the hubby and he can...
