Number 1, nobody has any compartment that is really THAT neat!

Number 2, nobody has a compartment with that much free empty space.

Number 3, I carry alot of stuff that I frequently wonder "why am I lugging this extra weight around"?

Number 4, PeterH-79MH carries a NAPA store.

I hardly see my husband as it is. Now he is going to be up all night tonight straightening bins and lining them with plastic matting.

Hmmmph...

Having been accustomed to a Class C with almost no storage and having weight constraints

we carry the minimal--some storage compartments are empty.

I carry a hydraulic jack, plastic leveling blocks, plastic chocks, patio mat, extra sewer hoses, fresh water hoses, a + wheel wrench and "her" tools in pink case of course.

John,

Please come organize my garage for me!

My Bambi only has one outside bin in which I carry firewood, Coleman Lantern, Toolbox, Levelers, Axe, Toilet Chemical, Hose, Stabilizer Jacks Crank, Coleman Stove, Small Barbecue, Rope, Duct Tape, Gloves. The storage area is under most of the corner bed in my Bambi, so has pretty good amount of room, but is a challenge for a guy my size to get way back into, lucky my wife is a small lady for the tough ones!

Edie · 01-16-2003, 06:26 PM

Hey there! I'm fine. You haven't heard from me because of my husband. He made me go back to work so I can help pay for his addiction.

Something about Fan-Tastic fans, gas cooktops, furnaces, carpeting, wood flooring, and an $8,000 paint job. And of course that's just for starters...

So I'm no longer a lady of leisure.

Kistler · 01-16-2003, 06:27 PM

We must have too much stuff inside--like toilet chemicals, vacuum, etc... BUT we have left over closet and storage room inside.....

I am fine with the Argosy, yes it needs paint, but have you any idea how long it takes to paint one of these suckers with the little brush they put in the paint at the parts store?

So I want to pay someone else to do it........is that wrong?

John, you have given me a brand new goal (not like I don't have enough of them already) To get my bins clean, POR -15 them and get them matted to allow for proper evaporation of water that might just leak in

.

Where did you get the mat?

Edie · 01-16-2003, 06:34 PM

DON'T ANSWER HIM!!!

Yes, we do have 2 computers. We are sitting about 4 feet away from each other.

He doesn't NEED matting. He really doesn't. You'd just be feeding his addiction.

**john hd** · 01-16-2003, 06:39 PM

brett

the mat is surplus from work. it comes in about 12" squares and can be cut to size.

i believe sears has it for lining tool boxes. it is nice because it allows air under items to dry the bin out, as you pointed out.

what? edie won't paint?
