Ok the RV dealer and I hit a snag today.
So it looks like I'll have to let this one go.
So the hunt for a B continues?

Moving up? Class B? Where are you gonna park that thing. You barely have room for your TD in your
backyard. Ha hahahah At least I think that silver thing in your backyard is your Teardrop ( Google Earth )

There just are no secrets anymore, are there?
Those people that constantly need a pat on the back to feel proud of thier accomplishments typically don't go very far...

Yep. I wish I had kept mine for all the same reasons.

We have both a Roadtrek "B" and our home-built teardrop. Sometimes I consider selling the TD, but it has been convenient on occasion to travel with both.

I tend to use the TD as extra storage and I enjoy cooking with the TD galley instead of inside the B. Gas mileage does suffer.

Jeffmutch: you are right about no more secrets.

As you know I'm still looking for that B.
And yes it makes me a little sad that the one I was looking at didn't work out.
But to be honest the hunt for something is just as fun at times. ( ok maybe this part is just me. )

But this does give me a few extra excuses for a few small road trips in the coming months.

Update: Looks like I'll be getting a class B next week..... But well have to trade in the teardrop to do it.

But the teardrop has been a blast to own and yes I well more then likely miss it.

And remember keep moving forward, because reverse just sucks!

I have owned several Toyota MH over the years....while it was about the best MH for us the MPG was no where close to that.I think the best I ever got was 20 MPG on a 4cly 4 speed.I wish I had a brand new one.....no new ones since 1994 though.
We came from a class B to a teardrop a while back.Each has their adantages and disadvantages.

So you get your Rig?

I went to braum’s tonight for a Crispy Chicken Club ( there's best sandwich ), looped around the back
parking lot and Bamb! There is a class B van parked across your front porch.

Congrats.
