Shitters full!

Verruh nice

Did you pay for it with cash?

I was going to make that the thread title but didn't want that on the front page of this respectable website
Thank you

Yes I did :thumb:

It's north Carolina. He traded three chickens and a goat for it.

M'erica!

I'm mistaken

Did you buy it from this guy?

NSFW -language-

I love that sum bitch LMAO

that thing's as big as your house :D congrats they are handy

In which trailer park will you be residing?

nice dude.

What's the MPG?

My Dad has a similar model, and I believe his can be measured in Feet per gallon.

Gonna be fun
Moving to KC think it will be easy to find one there , also just ordered the wife a tube top so she will fit in there
Thank You

I bought it from an old couple, he used to take it out west elk hunting... I asked him to be honest and they have been our neighbors and friends for a few years... The old man said if you keep your foot out of it it will get 13 on the highway and about 8 in the city

Got laid off down to the asbestos factory, and now the army says the plate in my head isn't big enough.

Nice RV....

But seriously, a guy from NC slinging crap about KC?

Tired of paying 200 per night at Myrtle Beach for a Motel .. Gonna take it out a few times, if I love it, I will keep it... If not I will sell it...

I was already offered 3k more than I paid for it so I don't think it will be hard to sell if I decided it wasn't for me...

Hell Insurance wasn't 245.00 for a whole year and that includes collision

Not unless provoked

you might get a tube top for yourself there romeo :D

you can off-set the fuel costs by renting it out to bang bros or bang bus.

Now some details about the cool stuff in it...
Of course ac/heat (vents)
Full stand up shower
Queen size bed in master bedroom
4000 watt generator that is very quiet and is controlled with a push of a button inside
100% self contained if you need to live in a walmart parking lot
got one of those satellite dome dish things on top... Hit the button and it finds the satellite for you.
3 burner stove + convection microwave
band new tires all around (2 weeks ago)
New Awning
push button slideout as seen in pics
electric steps

It has lots of windows, they would like that :thumb:

Far be it from me to come into one of these threads to fart on it, but up there on the side of the overhang- around and under that window- are those shadows or delamination? 'Cause if it's delam it could indicate some structural problems (wood rot) under that skin. Those C class units are notorious for that. Having said that, though, the lack of a window in the front of the nose is definitely in your favor because those were just the worst ever for rain leaks.

When you look in those cabinets around the TV do you see any stains on the walls or ceiling? Or, can you smell faint bleach from the cleanup of said stains?

I've seen what's under the surface of that nose when it needs rebuilding, and it ain't much. Like, 2x2 and Luan.

have that front end inspected -- new tires always hides front end wear.

I know what you are seeing.. He kept it under a cover and it got so hot it discolored parts of that, it also caused some of the stickers to start to peel... He parked it in my driveway yesterday to go over it with a fine tooth comb and I did... There is no water damage anywhere in the cabinets nose or anything else
I have known the old dude for years, he replaced the old tires because they started dry rotting... He kept up with maintenance

This has been a dream of my mine and Mrs. Steron. Not likely to happen anytime soon. Nice dude. Congrats.

I also gave it a pretty extensive drive... It's tight, you barely even hear the coffee cups clink against each other at highway speeds..

I hope you get to have one one day... :thumb:

Question, do you need a special drivers license to drive it?

just pull up to a rv park and pay one of the gypsy kids 5 dollars to empty the shitter

nah, i rented one when I was 22 with 7 buddies and drove it all the way to south padre island texas

No.......

Cool. As long there's not a kind of a bubble that you can push in with your finger there around the window, you're relatively OK.

I'd like to have one of those, but haven't taken the time to figure out the cost tradeoff of purchase and fuel and parking fees versus just getting a hotel.

No, but good lord, there should be for those 43' Class A diesel monsters. I've seen old ****s attempt to drive one off the lot and run it into a stop sign. Those things had me puckered when I'd drive 'em to a show or something.

Depends on the initial purchase price... + it's a pain in the ass to find clean places when you have a dog...

I like sleeping in my bed also... A bed that I know is clean with clean sheets and comforter + no bed bugs

I have nice lakes and places to go within a 50 mile radius and I am only 200 miles from the beach.

Some electric hookup spots can be had for 15 bucks a night... Go to Myrtle Beach with a dog and after taxes you will drop 200 per night easy unless you want to go to a roach motel.

I think boat operators should have to have a special license here too... We just had a young pregnant woman and son die on a pontoon after a speed boat hit them on High Rock lake here.

I honestly don't understand the appeal of RV's.

It's not for everyone... But you only have one shot in life to make memories... We are not promised tomorrow.

Here, I'll make you feel better. See that black lock plate on his entry door? ONE company makes those for almost every RV on the road. And there are about 30 different key sets. So, you're sittin' there at the campground surrounded by 50 or 100 or 200 other units, and the odds are, well, you're a math guy...:evil:

That probably didn't sway you, I guess.

They're just in a weird place in my mental space that just doesn't work for me. Want to stay in a nice place? Get a hotel. Want to go out and experience nature? That's what tents are for.

They're just too damned expensive (both price and cost of ownership) for me to understand the value proposition.

At ders reel nice Clark

Actually there's a different key for the deadbolt so that lessens the fun possibilities somewhat...

It's called "roughing it in comfort"

It's called "not even close to roughing it".

Exactly. You're out there in Nature, but when you get tired of that bitch's shit you can just go in and shut the door.

Why the **** would a Raiders fan buy an RV?

You can't even cross state lines...

It's known as a Mobile Prison. Easier to catch and house multiples of "them" in one slow moving spot.

I'll take a night at a hotel 10 out of 10 times. I don't feel like cleaning my own shit up while on vacation.

Where's the meth lab stored?

In their garage.

I'm more worried about getting Juliette Lewis out of the shower in time to voice some more Squidbillies.

No one can do "white-slut-who's-given-up-on-life" quite like she can...

Who want's to Rough it?

I like it I do.
But so expensive when you figure the upfront cost + insurance + upkeep + gas + campground fees.
I figure get a nice motel room and do some hiking.

I love camping though so I do get it. Thats why we always owned one of these. It was a daily driver, camping was usually free.

I miss having one..these are getting dang expensive as well.

People that get $#it out by bears...

If you decide to put a meth lab in it, just remember that cops need a warrant to enter without your permission, just like a residence.

Or a US Marshall...

Is that truth?

I know I can keep my AR15 in it just like my home as long as I am where what I have is legal

Well, that's according to the crooked junkyard owner on Breaking Bad.

I'll just drop these pics of my campsite two weeks ago in reply.

so, possible UAV (Urban Assault Vehicle) too?

Well played.

Thats beautiful and I will wave at you from the campground :thumb:

For a while there during the economic depression, they couldn't give these things away. Whole dealerships went tits up. You must have got it for a song. The only problem is $4/gallon gas. Oh well, can't have everything.

LMAO

There are a lot of variables you can play with, but a bit of Googling suggest RV's will save you around $100-$150 per day compared to hotels. (Part of that is assuming you're cooking your own meals rather than eating out.)

So, if we assume you're spending around $25k on a mid-level, used RV, a rough guesstimate (ignoring stuff like time value of money, maintenance, and interest rates) says you'll get your money out of it if you use it for 200 nights or more.

Maybe someday when I retire...

when I lived in Peculiar, the cool old couple across the street were retired. They would bolt from like October through May to avoid the cold in their BA RV ...it was huge. almost like a Bus.

I'd love to be able to do that someday.

plus, you can haul around a lot more guns and ammo... which is a bonus!

I got a hella deal on it...

Old man and his wife are not in good health and asked me to come down and take pictures to post on craigslist to sell it for them... I got to looking at it and asked him what his cash bottom dollar monday he would take for it... and everything that goes with it including a the car dolly.winegard roadtrip HD satellite antenna (900.00 +) brand new set of tires 1000.00+ all the shit that goes with it including cover and brand new awning (600.00) all silverware, plates, utensils, all supplies needed + many not needed.. a 450 dollar electric heater to go to extreme cold places (I won't need it) mini eureka boss vacuum cleaner, 25 gallons of gas, full propane system. 4000 watt on board generator. Complete Dish Network HD receiver, DVD/VHS combo player

He gave me a price and I took it... I did not try to beat him down a bit.



I gave him exactly what he asked for it... And it's nowhere near NADA

Shudder. Let me guess: it was freezing ass cold and rained every night, right?

My idea of roughing it is a Hampton Inn.

No rain. And depends on whether you consider 45F to be "freezing ass cold" I suppose.

awesome. you good to go -- where's your first big voyage gonna be?

Heh. It's probably just my luck and we also always camp above 10,000 feet.

Dunno yet to be honest

Nice!

Took it out for a couple of days (friday and sat) had a great time..

No Tv reception (too many trees)
Just enough bars on the phone for calls
