Have you seen that commercial with Dennis Hopper sitting in the middle of an intersection in a neighborhood of little houses? He says ?The American Dream ? a little house on a quiet street with X.X kids, two cars and a white picket fence?..The American Dream? No! The American Dream is that we each get to have our OWN dream!?
Well, here?s a chance to talk about what you consider to be your dream RV. I think that with very few exceptions, we all have to accept compromises. Whether it is due to budget limitations, lack of time, skills that we have not acquired, there are probably things that we wish we could do (or could have done) as we build our RV?s. I am exceptionally happy with my RV-8, yet if I had had no limitations? I probably would have put a Garmin 530 instead of a 430, a few fancier doo-dads, and maybe extended range fuel. Why didn?t I? Cost, time?.I wanted to get flying!
OK, so tell us, if you wish, what your ultimate dream RV would be! There are no wrong answers ? as old Dennis says ?We each get to have our own dreams?wild dreams, fun dreams, CRAZY dreams?.? There will be no bashing of other people?s dreams folks! Build on them if you wish, but no one is wrong ? heck, we?re not building the things anyway?.
Oh yeah, no imaginary engines, avionics that have not yet been invented, or building with materials such as ?unobtanium?. You have an unlimited budget and time, but you?ve gotta use what exists?
(Now you know what goes through my mind while cruising alone at 9500? with a 30 knot tailwind on a clear winter day in Texas?.
