its a travel trailer. you hook it up to your car/truck and tow it. Drop it off at the site, and then use your car. Our last one was a motor home. it was MINE! I drove it all over the country. I saw many states, many state fairs, many festivals and many good times. When we retired, he said he wanted to join me and hit the road with me. We trade in old Betsy for a new travel trailer. one that had to be pulled, not driven. He didnt like to drive the old one, but he would. I could easily handle her, and since she had a generator I could dry dock anywhere I chose. The travel trailer had a battery that didnt last long, and would pull heat or AC if you needed it. just a few light.

The old motor home allowed me to travel, not pay for hotel rooms, and slept in my own bed. Stocked my own toys in her, and didnt have to worry about where my stuff was. it was right there. I could pull into anyones driveway and stay the night, or sleep overnight at a walmart parking lot. no dozing off in the drivers seat, you had a bed to lay in. I loved being on the open road.

it was a huge dream of mine to go go go once we both retired. Clearly it wasnt his dream too, even tho he claimed it was. He was quick to use any excuse and MS just happened to fall in his lap.

he is a good husband, and provides in many other ways, this was not going to be one of them. So, when MS happened along, he grabbed it with both fists. Trust me, its been a HUGE issue and subject of many discussions. I have made my feelings extremely clear, and he has expressed his. If we still had the old one, I would feel comfortable driving it, but I dont feel comfy pulling this huge thing. it sways, and rocks, and takes a lot of set up once you get where you are going. With the old one, I just pulled up, and stepped out.

oh well...thanks for letting me vent.
