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!!

If you noticed my recent rash of posts you will see I've begun seriously 5th wheel shopping.  I've done a lot of research so consider myself fairly well educated.  But one of the areas I'm not clear on is what I really need in terms of inverter size.

I won't be moving much for a few years -- will have the unit delivered and parked on my spot here at Retama Village.  

Any thoughts from the experts in the crowd?  Or is it something I even need to worry about?

Carol,

You don't need to worry about an inverter.  As long as you have an electrical hook-up, you're good to go.  No need to complicate things with an inverter until you will need a larger battery bank and, possibly solar panels way down the road if and when you want to do some serious boondocking.

Thanks Howard! I needed to narrow down the list of things I'm worried about! LOL

Well, Carol, if you are looking for a 5er of the "quality" of Retama/Bentsen then my current one is for sale.

Sell a few of my lots and it will help pay for it ;)

That would be an excellent plan Jack! Forget compromise and go for what I really want... Will you move it to my lot? Pretty sure the Avalanche won't move it!

We're actually able to list lots for owners. Call or email if you want to talk about it.
