Fulltiming
We've been full-timing in a 2000 LXI with a front slide since
9/2003. We've wintered pretty much everywhere on the Gulf Coast,
fish camps, state parks, now mostly in RV Parks/Resorts in Texas. We
tend to dry-dock when traveling. Ours is an all electric coach but
we can still dry-dock 2 to 16 hrs before the generator will auto-
start and that depends upon the age/condition of our batteries.
Running the generator for 2 hrs brings us right back to the 2 to 16
hrs. In between we'll run the generator for cooking and the like.
There have been some minor house type issues with the coach but
nothing of any real consequence mechanical. They still built them
quite well in 2000. We still enjoy the life style and if we had to
do it over again it would probably be in another Bird. If we were
less mobile it would be in a 5th wheel.
