Good morning all:

Tommy Rountree here - in the foothills of the Appalachians. While I got
off to a "bad start", (thanks Ernie for the e-mail) I look forward to
my association with this group.

Martha and I started motorhoming in 1972 with a 30' Travco. When the
children started to college the motorhome had to go. I'm now looking to
retirement in about two years, hence the BB which I purchased last July.

I am a member of and regularly post on two other forums and search for
every "scrap" of info I can get. I am however very challenged when it
comes to mechanical ability, but I'm learning. I made a lot of mistakes
when I first got my bird (1994 WLWB) and while so far I have been more
of an information "taker" rather than a "giver".

There's not much I can offer other members/owners like y'all do, but I
am the District Attorney for the 41st Judicial Circuit of Alabama
(http://www.blountda.com). Hopefully nobody will need the assistance of a DA
in Alabama, but if you have a problem in my fair state, you can contact
me through my website or via this forum.

Thanks for the "welcome mat", Greg.

Is a small world indeed. Our Travco was a 1970, I believe the model #
was a 320. 30 or 32 feet long on a Dodge chassis with a big ole Dodge
440. Good engine. We carried the kids all over the U.S. in that
motorhome and never had mucxh of a problem. I pulled (backwards BTW) a
little 73 or 74, I believe, Dodge Colt (Mitsubishi) RWD which had a
hitch attached to the rear frame. I bought a winch type device which
you used to winch up the rear of the car and then let it down on the
ball which was mounted on the rear of the motorhome. As I recall, we
used bungees from the front doors to the steering wheel to prevent a
excess of castering of the front wheels.

Towed that little car thousands of miles with never a problem. Didn't
have brakes nor lights. When we traveled at night (which was very rare)
I would switch on the emergency flashers. Never got questioned nor
stopped.

Anybody remember that kind of "set-up"?

Yes, back in the Seventies and early Eighties no one got excited about flashing lights, it was presumed a bad plug. These days with cell phones, blackberries, streaming wireless internet with live cams, GPS, iphones and apples people call 911. Once an orange electronic devise is introduced I think I will fall out. The last time I called emergency was after nearly being electrocuted by an electric drill motor while polishing my fathers Jeepster wagon. 911 did not exist then. We had a party line. I was barefoot and stupid. Perhaps that is what is wrong with me today.. DA's never get stopped. lol
