You can often find me and my RV at Nascar Races or other race events, tailgating at baseball or football games, some parts of Florida or Maine, and of course at some popular VW Camping events.

Ever shared a desert with tenters, car campers, RVers and trailerists boondocking on BLM land? Ever been stuck behind a motorhome or trailer in the Smokies or on the Blue Ridge Parkway? ( 479 mile long road to nowhere? I can assure you that all of the RVs in the country aren't at the casino, or in LVNV or at Disney World. In fact I'm willing to bet my pension that most are at home waiting on the kids' summer vacation.

Let's give up the superiorer than thou attitudes, why don't we? I mean, really- it's about fracking time!
