Sounds great Wayne!
I have great memories of my family renting an RV and heading from our home (Menlo Park) up to Mount St. Helens about a year after the eruption... I still have a Planter's cheese balls canister filled with ash from that trip. I was 3 years old at the time... have fun!

Wayne, does that include the cost of buying "carbon credits" since that baby sucks so much gas ? LOL

Not aware of a requirement to buckle up in an RV. That said, everyone remained buckled for 90% of the trip. They only unbuckled occasionally, and then the night we left they all slept in the rear bedroom where I felt they would be fairly safe.


All that being said, and while I'm a stickler for wearing a belt at all other times, it just doesn't bother me that much when renting an RV. I'm a careful driver, and besides, when I traveled in the family wagon we didn't even have seat belts. Maybe that makes me a fool, but you pick your battles and things to worry about, and this just aint one of them. IMHO of course.

was hanging w/a couple of cops recently who had been shopping recently for a new RV.

"It's illegal unless everyone is buckled up."
"What if you're sleeping in the back?"
"Doesn't matter."
"What if there is a wall seperating the front and rear?"
"Doesn't matter. Some mfg have installed rear belts and some haven't."
"Sounds crazy to me."
"Yep"
