    Choosing an RV

    Thanks for mentioning the bath. We have been researching and looking at 5ers and I am not excited about the Closet Toilet and the shower in the bedroom. If you know of specific models with a full separate bath that would be appreciated info.

    Choosing an RV

    Has anyone had experience with the Heartland Cedar Ridge TT - We are ready to move up from an MPG and looking at fifth wheels but this looks interesting - concerned about the patio doors during travel. Thanks

    Fulltiming in a TT

    Is there anyone fulltiming in a travel trailer. Its just the 2 of us and some of the travel trailers look pretty good on space and storage. We will be upgrading from an MPG 185. The fifth wheels look pretty large and a little too much space.

    New mattress suggestions

    In our 185 we tried several things including toppers etc. However we have finally found that the Coleman Queen air mattress is the best for us - Since we never use the couches and table we leave the area made for a bed all the time. The air mattress is great and we usually re-air about every...
