Four wheel drive might be a nice option too

This looks like fun, we'd love to be there now! Here in southern California we get frost warnings at 40 F, what a joke! So where is this heavenly location, and is there room for one more AS?

Sorry you have no Snow. It puts a stop to all but the serious campers up here in New England. Room for more, you bet! Looking for a 23' next

I must admit that after seeing your pictures I'm feeling much better now. It's a nice, sunny, crisp day in the Vancouver, BC area today, and I was thinking I'd get my neighbours excited by running my lawn mower to clean up the very last of the leaves that have been sitting on the lawn. Yep, we had snow already this year, but with our usual rain (liquid snow shovel) it's pretty seldom we have to go out and move the stuff around.

As for needing new axles, I was thinking more along the lines of ski doo tracks and you are set for the winter months. The only problem there I can see is brakes.

Hi All ,
For all you snow birds move to Tucson Arizona. We complain when we have a cloudy day. We only have 350 sunny days ayear. What a bummer.
Stay warm .

Russell,

It's the 6 months from now that you want to run for cover.

The big yellow ball in the sky gets a little obnoxious at that time of year.

Tin Can,

Winterized? What's that? Oh you mean closing the overhead vent.
