I bought a 2003 Holiday Rambler on the advice of my father that had one in the 80s. I now work at parks on Long Island and this year I’m moving to Tennessee in hopes to work at the GSNP while I go to school for Nursing. I’m finding the Gatlinburg area is a little hard to find housing so I’m thinking about taking my camper the distance. It gives me such great anxiety.
I bought the camper from an older couple who had pride of ownership. They were to the point they couldn’t travel much anymore as it sat in their yard for 2 years before I bought it. The elderly man was in such poor health he could not tell us anything about the camper. The 30 miles home scared the death out of me. My boyfriend had a 350 and the trailer had a Hensley hitch. The trailer owned us! We dogged down the bolts making it better. I don’t take it more that 5 miles a few times a year. This last time the trailer was so nose heavy we looked like a V going down the road. I was happy to get it to storage, winterize it and forget about it for awhile.
I love my camper! You could say I’m a Happy Camper. I’m going to the Florida RV show this weekend to get educated. I wish I had time to sit around bonfires to ask questions rather than work. I will get this just learning and it will come with experience.
So if you have suggestions how to seek out info I greatly appreciate it!l
