I have spent large parts of the past several days looking at used RV’s. I have only one definite conculsion: Craigslist people are totally nuts. Finally at 4pm today I drove up to the north side and the young guy actually started up the generator, then turned on both air conditioners while talking to me. He then started the engine, and turned on the water pump to show that it worked. For some reason I’m not totally in love with the class A, and want to see another class C before making the jump. The class C folks fall into the totally flaky camp. Bless Jim and Sandy, Jim is going to help me navigate between the two and Sandy listens to me whine about it all.
Mom’s mobile home has not sold yet, and if it doesn’t she will just turn it over to the park. They park has gotten rule crazy and lots of folks are leaving, with about 1/3 of the park mobile homes for sale. I ended up showing her place to a neighbor again tonight as Mom is up in Payson. I told them to talk to her when she gets back on Friday for what kind of deal she will make.
I want to list my mobile on Sunday, but I still have so much stuff sitting around. I should be tending to that instead of running all over hell’s half acre looking for an RV. I tend to freak out at 2am when I wake up. I have finally told myself that I make no decisions while it is dark outside. I get too overwhelmed and don’t think straight during that time. Not sure I think all that straight during the day, either.
I sure know what you are going through, but I can tell you it will all work out for the best. I don't think I could ever handle a Class A, even when my eyes were much better, and think a Class C would be easier to drive, park, etc. Never having driven a Class A though, I could be totally wrong. If I were looking today, I'd be checking out larger Class B's! Best of luck to you, and take a deep breath now and then.
ReplyDeleteYou do NOT whine. And I agree - the people on Craigslist are fruitcakes. But hang in there and eventually you will find the right rig for you. A Class C drives more like a truck which makes it more comfortable. Maybe the next one is the one.
ReplyDeleteGood luck it can be mind boggling.
ReplyDeleteWe have had a class B, and a class C now our class A . And personally love the class a more. It rides nicer, and handles much better. More room and more storage. But the final choice will be what you want.
Good luck in your research and decision.
Like George and Sandie say, the right one will come along and you will know it when you see it!
