This is our first trip to the Tampa show. Really looking forward to the chance many different brands and models in one place. We are particularly interested in Newmar and Tiffin glasses, but we also want to check out Fleetwood as there are no dealers close to us. Any suggestions or tips for navigating the show? We will be there Wed and Thurs. Thanks!

Thursday just before noon.

Due to the weather, Sunday afternoon was very empty. I thought that we were going to have to park on the other side of 301 or a cruise ship parking lot, but when we got there about 1:30 and followed the car parkers, then detoured up to the front row. We went just to catch back up with a salesman and discuss the future, plus we decided (due to lack of crowd) to go visit the inside vendors again.

I went on Thursday afternoon and it really wasn't too crowded at all.

How many scooters ran over your toes?

One of the company dudes baby sitting one of the multi-million dollar coaches said he liked Wednesday and Thursday the best since the "professional RVers" were there those days and he didn't have to worry about kids and others pulling or pushing on stuff.

Not too many child scooters, but plenty of the senior variety

Do you believe they made me take my shoes off to go into some of the coaches. For 2.6 mill you would think they would have self cleaning floors.

I kept thinking what that kind of moola would buy you in a sticks and bricks. We have friends that have the most beautiful house I've ever seen and it's only valued at 1.5 mill. It's 8,000 square feet with 3,000 feet of guest living quarters, it even has an elevator, just think what another mill could buy you, a second elevator and maybe a retractable roof to watch the stars at night.

To each his own as they say, but for me it's all about the life experiences, family, travel etc... I know in my death bed I won't be thinking about having a better coach, house, car, but perhaps wishing I could have visited and seen more. However, I'm in no rush to find out [emoji120]

Or a Super C that doesn't allow food, drinks, or those shopping bags they pass out. They said it was because of of bags scratching the cabinets and molding. It was too tight to avoid rubbing cabinets and molding, but if their stuff is that weak, NEXT COACH Please!
