    Hello from the Texas Hill Country

    New guy here. I'm a long time RVer; but, always a class A. I'm pondering a 5th wheel as our RVing habits have turned to Full Time....or near full time. I'm a member of FMCA and Escapees.

    Welcome, I have to say that we really like the 5th Wheel arrangement. Our thought process has always been that if we had a mechanical breakdown, we wouldn't loose the ability to use our house, just send the Tow Vehicle to the local Dealer and find a campground while it gets fixed.

    The good news is that FMCA now accepts 5th Wheelers and Travel Trailer People.

    Hello and welcome fellow Escapee member and Texas resident. Our home was Bastrop Texas before we went full time. We are on our way back to Texas, going to stay a few days at Lake Livingston then head on down to Galveston. Man I'm so glad we got out of northern Indiana when we did!
    Our 5th wheel has been great on this trip. Looking forward to getting back to Texas.
