Sorry to hear about that pontoon boat you got outbid on.


My wife and I are thinking of RVs as we speak. We went to a dealer last
week and looked at this one:

Pretty nice layout and runs around $85K. It has a Mercedes 6cyl diesel
engine that supposedly gets around 20 mpg. It looked like it would be very
comfortable for two people.


But, $85K will buy a lot of plane tickets and motel rooms!

That's a beaut! Chrysler is making some damned nice vehicles lately,
the chassis will be fine!


Oh yeah.. something else to consider. When you're done with the motel
and rent car, you're done.


If you find you don't like the motorhome, you sell it and take a hugh
loss.


Eh, spend it anyhow... LOL!


Well, it's probably kinda like the Porsche 911 - just a dream!

Actually, I like touring and camping by motorcycle. It's cheap, at 50 mpg,
and campsites are usually pretty reasonable. But, my wife isn't thrilled
about 8 hours on the back of a motorcycle. When she had her own, in Europe,
we did a lot of touring that way. But she's gotten rid of her bike as
riding in the DC area is not fun.

Hey, speaking of Porsche, and Dodge/Mercedes...

Doesn't Eisboch have something like that?

he'd be in the know, I'm sure.
