I believe I'd be trying to rent a class B Coach?              Welcome Carol!       ....and Thank You For Your Service!!              All I'd say is just give it a try. You might even like it enough to do       it for a get away somewhere you'd like to spend some time at. I'm sure       they have very good directions that probably go with the units       explaining what you have to do and how things work. Being a Navy vet,       you must have abilities to do things the average person doesn't.              Make sure you ask the people where you're going if they have a place you       can plug it in. They'll probably only have regular 120 volt outlets,       but as long as you have a cheap adapter that can get you by if the air       doesn't kick out the breaker if you need it. On my Winnebago view, it       gets close, but doesn't kick the breakers off.              Any specific questions about them, ask away. Go take a look at what       they have and familiarize yourself with them a little.                     --       Better Days Ahead!              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
