Work day at the beach... downloading, transfering, posting... endless trip reports... and all that reasearch.
And we appreciate it. Thank you for all your time and effort.
It's fun traveling with you.
Safe Travels,
Rick and Kim
Slow down, Sleepy. You'll wear yourself out!

Sleepy,
Careful! You'll be hunting for a chiropractor to straighten your neck after all of that watching..... Looks like great fun but I'd have to go in training.

I like Tioga George already. Thanks for the insights on boondocking. "Parked" is a word Mrs Eugarps and I will be using a lot as we explore. :W

RE: TC travels, Az, Hawaii, Nova Scotia, * 2012 TR, Pg 531
Sleepy,
Your posts remind me of a poem my grandfather had me memorize:
"In Flanders Fields" by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, soldier, physician and poet.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

RE: Chalet Quad Slide
Have you tried to find a non-slide Arctic Fox, Chalet, or other camper.
Ahh, but have YOU tried gettin drunk with 8 of your best friends in one WITHOUT a slide??? HA!
Last weekend mine got used extensively, and also nicknamed "The Shot Wagon".... The liquor cabinet got emptied out, the black tank got filled up. Poor truck, I didn't even have the jacks down. Good thing there's bump stops.
Good point.... :B LOL

RE: Chalet Quad Slide
jimh425,
Your point is well taken. I guess, coming from the RV's in my sig, I've gotten used to not having a slide out. I'd even looked at buying a 34' Foretravel with no slide-outs. Class A's with no slides, are pretty reasonably priced. a 34' non-slide Foretravel would be high luxury for us.
That said, we'll be looking at a Snow River Prestige 8'11" with a single slide later this month. We like the Snow River, because you can use it with the slide in. It's not as roomy with the slide in but should be useable at rest stops. It would work nicely for us.
I was just raising the question in light of the intro of a quad slide. I'd expect that on a Class A but wonder why someone would "downsize" to something like this. I would think the fuel consumption would be on par considering an F-550 hauler vs. a small Class A. I'm just musing as to what the advantage would be, unless one had a reason to own an F-550 for other uses.
To each his own, I guess.

RE: Chalet Quad Slide
All,
Why are manufacturers so slide happy? The reason the industry went bust during the last downturn and high fuel prices, is because they got WAY behind the curve. The TCM survey seemed to say, industry should be building light weight, non-slide camper and here we are with these behemoths! What gives RV builders?
Have you tried to find a non-slide Arctic Fox, Chalet, or other camper. The only staunch hold outs are Northern-Lite, Northstar, and Bigfoot and now Livin' Lite.
My rant may not be yours, so feel free.
Best,
Bill

Sleepy,
Wow, what a place. It reminds me of places like the Holocaust Memorial of Jerusalem, Israel. Man's inhumanity to man on display for all to see. Unfortunately, we don't seem to learn from these horrific experiences.
Thanks for the history lesson.

Gosh! Someone would have to really want an F-550 to buy one of those.
