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!!

A great big howdy from Texas!
Permalink  

Hubby and I are wannabe RVers. We have just started the search. We are looking at fifth wheels. We are planning a trip to New Braunfels for a look at a Texas sized RV dealer. We're thinking used, just because they seem to be plentiful and a bit cheaper. We have some acreage in the country where we can park it and use as a weekend place. but we would also like to take trips with the grandkids, and by ourselves once Mr. Man retires. I'm so glad to have found this forum.

Welcome, Carol.

I think you will find lots of answers to your questions here, because the folks here are knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and encouraging.  If looking at a towable, keep in mind the weight capacities of any truck that you may already own.  If you've not got a truck, then choose your trailer first and then get a truck that is capable of safely handling  that size of trailer.

Since you will be looking in New Braunfels, check out Evergreen RV.  I don't know if she is still there, but a lady by the name of Melinda King worked there and would be very helpful to you.  She's been in the RV industry for years and was even a factory rep for a while.

Good luck in your research and planning.

Terry

We bought our rig from PPL in New Braunfels and were very happy with them.

Carol,

I have to update my above comment a bit.  I heard today that Melinda King is no longer working for any RV dealership.  Sorry for giving an incorrect comment.  Sadly, I don't know anyone else in that area that could provide help to you.

Terry
