Oh no...Steve! Say it isn't so!

Dang..."lost another one to MH-Tech".

So whatdaya looking at? Any chance a new(er) TH or some Benedryl might help that itch? I know people who can post some great pics for ya!

Good luck!

So have you found one, or still looking? Are you in the trailer market also- if you're worried about water, you could try this...





Good luck! and glad to hear you'll still be dropping by!

With the storage capacities for water on most MH's you may have to take Sean up on his suggestion. Hope you don't do alot of dry camping. We like the idea of the MH's especially for traveling and comfort. They seem to be alot more luxurious inside than the common TH but being able to unhook and go offroad is nice. I guess I can't talk to much about that since I pull my trailer with a HDT. But the HDT can still make it to alot of places. Good luck and we will see you back looking for another TH in a few years.

You know, Sean's picture gave me an idea. If you are using a MH and pulling an enclosed trailer for the toys, why not install a large water tank inside the trailer, put a 12V pump on it and carry extra water when needed. In fact you could even put in extra waste tanks too and use a macerator pump to send it back, put a dump valve arrangement on it and just dump them both (trailer and MH) at the dump.

I'm switching also.
Not a Class A, but a Class C.
Jayco has the Diesel powered Class C and my buddy bought one.
No more stopping for food or the bathroom.

Lincster,
Have you been hitting the bottle? Please tell me your not selling that beautiful Tow Boss!! If you are going Class C then what will you do with your truck and trailer? I wish you the best of luck but have a feeling we will be seeing you back here not to long after your purchase. Oh by the way my HDT doesn't require any more bathroom breaks either. But off course squattin on a porta potty is not quite as nice as squattin in a Class C bathroom. Can I say that Moderator Sean?

Yep, got everything sold already, just waiting for dune season to be over. Not going to miss any trips.
Sorry fellas, but tired of stopping.
I take 3 trips a month. 1.5 hours average for each way. 3 hours per trip stopping for fuel or something. That adds up over 3 weekends a month and 6 months of the year.

Wow...you got the "cat by it's tongue" here buddy...was it the stopping that made you turn? Fuel: every coach needs it, Potty breaks: every person needs it (and stopping roadside keeps it out of your tanks! )...I'd be curious to hear a little more! Dang it...got BOTH rigs sold? (Not that that's a big feat...you have/had the cream 'o the crop)...

I can only say 'wow' again...
