We will be parked with the Monaco International Club. They might have to change the name to Navistar RV International Club. deSanford

I agree. I'll bet some folks bar tab....er, I mean bingo tab varies more than that per trip.

Yes, other than time off from work. The cost of fuel is the biggest factor.

heading to alabama

we are heading to alabama in a few days from new york. the price of diesel here is over 4.50 a gallon. It is going to cost almost a 1000 to get to the Gulf Coast. We are full timers but contemplated finding an eff apt for the winter but that was quickly forgotten due to the normal bad weather here. The difference would be about 100.00 overall and thats not enough to stop me from being in nice weather. Hopefully the prices will drop soon. ya right!!

Price of diesel went down before the election, and now it is going back UP. We need another election. deSanford
