Moderators SeaDawg Posted January 9, 2018 Moderators Posted January 9, 2018 The Tampa show, biggest attendance in the country, and a dizzying number and variety of RVs, opens a week from tomorrow, on January 17. We go every year, just to see what's new, and get reminded of why we love our little Oliver Elite. Most years, we dry camp in the parking lot with friends or relatives. ($20, which includes your$12 parking fee for the next day.) We won't be camping this year, as invariably, people knock on our door and want to see our trailer. I don't want to show it with the gaping holes, soon to be fill with new fridge and replacement cabinet for our microwave. Plus, we will have house guests... If you are planning to go, your $10 ticket is good for two days. You'll probably need it. The state fairgrounds are full, and it's a lot of walking. $1 discount for seniors on opening day. We drove by today on our way to Orlando for the nahb international builders show. There were already about 300 units on the ground and staging in the parking lot. Days of work to get ready for this mammoth show. Sherry 2 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Florida and Western North Carolina, or wherever the truck goes.... 400 watts solar. DC compressor fridge. No inverter. 2 x 105 ah agm batteries . Life is good.
Moderators mossemi Posted January 11, 2018 Moderators Posted January 11, 2018 I planned on going again this year, my first as an owner and not a looky-do. It’s a short drive from Lutz! Hopefully on Wednesday. Maybe see you there. Mike 1 Mike and Krunch Lutz, FL 2017 LEII #193 “the dog house”
Moderators SeaDawg Posted January 20, 2018 Author Moderators Posted January 20, 2018 So, we went. We walked. I don't think we conquered. Vini, vidi, vici... Not We saw very little new. Glad we didn't tow the trailer and stay for a second day.. A very few interesting items. The new tab 400 was cool, and on sale for 33k and change.with very few options. We walked on. And on, and on. .we logged about six miles on my sister's fit bit.
