Thankfully now we were able to buy our first brand new rv. Instantly fell in love and amazement of our new Travel Trailer. To think all the luxuries in this thing was possible just wasn't reality in our minds. I mean we were just getting used to having a popup that actually had a cable tv port built into it. Then here we are with microwaves, electric awnings, central heat and a.c. and a HD TV ...for us this thing is beyond luxurious. Now we have to listen to all the "that ain't camping " comments from those jealous , but that's ok...ill listen to their insults while I relax inside , watching tv in my reclining furniture while the rain keeps them all huddled in their 8x8 tent . We absolutely love our Wildcat 312RLI


Welcome! That's a nice TT. We almost bought one of those. Decided it probably wouldn't be good for the waistline having the TV and fridge right next to each other. [emoji4]

Those that say it isn't really camping are usually just envious.

Cheers!

Doesn't anyone travel/camp in December ?
We're leaving AZ for Bakersfield in a few days to spend Christmas with our daughter and her family and then spend New Years with our son and his family @ Superstition Mountain OHV area.
Hope to see other Wildcat Maxx owners in our travels.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.

My Wildcat has an appointment with a transplant surgeon Monday. It’s getting a new bedroom A/C unit.

Sitting in the driveway with a layer of snow on the roof. We are not supposed to get snow here. Hate it. Might get to 35 degrees today but fortunately the sun is out. We do have reservations at Ocean Lakes in Myrtle Beach for 6 nights over New Years. Hope it will be much warmer. Click image for larger version

We get enough snow to stick more than 1 day, about every 10 years. Although I would trade you some of your snow for some of our wind and 100 degree+ days

Mine is still at the factory. They are replacing ours with a new one, just waiting to see when to pick it up from the nearest dealer.

Pretty much, even though having been a very young janitor at a weather station once which makes me as much a weather expert as anyone, a trace is a bit more than a skiff.

Pick on Tom?

Nope, just the weather. The wind has been blowing here in Fort Mohave for over a week and it is driving me batty.
