What is it like to live long term in a caravan?

Well, living in a caravan for long term is absolutely possible and comfortable as well. Here goes the elaboration to support what I just stated –• What would be the cooking like?Well, caravan can let you cook on a normal gas oven, which is complete with four ringer burner grills. There will be an attached sink and every other supportive facility to help you prepare your favorite dishes. There are markets on-site from where you can get your kitchen requirements on regular basis.• What would be the shower likeNo matter how big and tall you are, a caravan has full shower space and facilities within it. The bathroom looks quite classy and highly useful. • How would be the toilet like?Advanced caravans have toilet and basin suites. Not only that some toilets are even with swiveling system. • One of the most important question of all – what about the electricity?Well, you can use electric hook up and use it with the help of its cable from your caravan to the on-site electric point. Every touring holiday park and caravan sites do have electric points. So, there is no need to fret over this electric issue. • What about the water?When you are to live in a caravan for a little longer, you can use 2x29 litre of aqua rolls. They are easy to use and connect to the caravan’s water pump to have sucked in when required. Apart from that advanced caravan have a couple of tanks – one is in kitchen and another is in bathroom. And then, there is a hot water tank, which heats up water upto 70°. This is how, you avail water all-through the caravan days.• How the winter-days would be like?In Australia, winters are good. Most of the Australian regions remain warm moderately even during winter. The temperature goes down to 10° maximum. So, winters are quite manageable in Australia. And, things go even much better if you consider some of the best blankets for keeping with yourself: Coral jacquard blanket, Reversible printed fleece blanket and a few. So, this is how to live in a caravan for long-term period. For caravan hire, kindly prefer Global Caravan Hire. They are the best for luxury caravan hire in Brisbane.

What RV manufacturers produce the best quality RVs for full-time use?

Although Frederick Wilson hits on many of the important things to consider, I would like to add some perspective (filled with biased, personal opinions) from an RV Repair Technician’s point of view.Thor, the parent company of Airstream, and most other RV manufacturers, seem to have learned from the most recent recession that they need to stop making good products and start making good money. Year after year the quality goes down and the price of the RV’s go up. Thor and Forest River combined build about 83% of the RV’s sold today.Thor subsidiaries include:Airstream Bison Coach Breckenridge CrossRoads RV Cruiser RV Dutchmen RV DRV (Mobile Suites) Entegra Coach Heartland RV Highland Ridge Jayco, Inc Keystone RV KZ RV Livin Lite RV Redwood RV Starcraft Thor Motor Coach (Four Winds International and Damon Motor Coach) Venture RVJust to point out how many brands are included in each of the above Companies I will breakdown Keystone’s fifth wheel brands:Keystone (Thor Subsidiary) fifth wheel Brands include:Cougar Copper Canyon Everest Fuzion Hornet Laredo Montana Mountaineer Raptor Springdale SydneyWith two companies building about 83% of the RV’s on the market today, there is little quality difference among the brands. Each production line has been streamlined and the profits have been maximized across all of the brands. The typical warranty period is one year on a new RV.Consider this: If you buy a new RV but aren’t quite ready to full time yet and that RV sits through winter, you may have already lost half of your warranty period and have yet to use, or test, your new purchase.Some of the best quality used RV’s (no longer in business) are:Teton Homes Nu-Wa Hitchhiker Excel King of the Road Country CoachSome of the best quality new or used RV’s (current manufacturers) are:New Horizons RV Tiffin WinnebagoIf I were in the market for an RV and looking for quality I would stay away from anything that has components manufactured by Lippert. As a repair technician I loathe the days when I have to attempt a repair of anything that company produces.If you are interested in reading an eye opening article, written by Greg Gerber, the editor and founder of RV Daily Report (and full time RV’er) Click Here[1]Footnotes[1] Opinion: The RV industry death spiral – Part 1

Are exotic car owners limited to how much they can drive their cars? Are they limited because of storage capacity? Do they feel that they can only go out for a ride before they return home? Would they pay for a service that solves these issues?

As an exotic car owner myself, I know many other exotic car owners, and I'll try to answer this question the best I can.Are exotic car owners limited to how much they can drive?No, unless you're leasing - but then it's no different from any other car, really.Now let's dive a little deeper…When we go on cruises together, like this one:(That's an Underground Racing Gallardo, Audi R8 v10, and a couple of Vipers, among others. Me in my Lotus Elise.)We usually end up going out to dinner. When we do… We have to park. Fortunately for us we have a nice gentleman who meets us at our destinations and does security for the cars. He only works on a tip basis, so it's nice to throw him a few bucks for his services to keep him coming back.But what happens when we are out… alone… and have to park? Or go to the grocery store? Yikes!Nah, it's really not that bad. There certainly are fears of something happening but I would say as a general rule most of the folks I know with exotic cars probably wouldn't leave it sitting out on the street over night in a busy city. But as far as a grocery store run goes or going out to dinner there are usually several options… Valet parking is one, and the valet people will usually let you stage your car out front so they don't even touch your car, but they keep an eye on it for you. If you're left to just park it in a parking lot, many of us tend to park in the back where there are hopefully some open spots. Want to know something funny though?It happens very often that I'll park in the very back, and I'll come out and all of a sudden there are one or two cars parked next to mine. I don't get mad at this, the way I see it is that they're probably car enthusiasts who wanted a picture of their car with mine or something, and hopefully they are respectful to my car. I haven't met any folks who strictly drive their car and then bring it straight home. Half the fun is letting people sit in your car and take pictures.:)Here's a recent photo of me on a cruise. My passenger recently sold his Gallardo so he was tagging along with me. The photo car was a Rolls Royce Phantom, and the cruise included tons of cars from an Aventador to a 911 Turbo.

How much does it cost to move a pool table?

This varies greatly with so many factors.  The biggest of which:  is it a single piece slate table, thereby moving it (taking rails apart and slate off) does not require you to remove the cloth attached to the bed slate?  Only 6 and 7 foot tables are small enough to have single piece slate, and thus when taken apart, moved, and re-assembled, would not require new cloth, although that is the best time to do new cloth - when the table is apart.  Two or three piece slate tables will require new cloth installation as part of the move, so that must be considered.   It can cost nothing to move a table, if you have free transportation, enough guys to lift it without needing to take it apart, etc.   Onto best guesses to answer the question as a standard answer:  Plan on $200 to $300 to pay a company to: Dis-assemble the table, load and move to new location, and maybe set it up, if it is a SINGLE PIECE SLATE, which means the move does not include replacing the cloth at the same time, or, if they move the table, but do not set it up fully. Plan on $400-$600 to have a standard 8 or 9 foot table (which has 2 or 3 piece slate) to have the table disassembled, moved to a new location, new cloth installed, put together, and leveled.  Now this cost may or may NOT include the cost of the new cloth - they might ask you to buy it, or charge this range and indicate that the cloth materials are extra. So you can see there's no easy answer.  It also greatly depends on the area of the country, or should I say what country you are in - as well as how remote a location you are in. I assumed the USA, and not way out in the sticks, but fairly near a town in which there are potential billiards moving companies that would not have to travel outside of 30 minutes to reach either location.
