......no offense, but this is too much mechanical gibber-jabber for me.
I was hoping more for a "where go you like to go camping" kind of blog.
Thanks much!

Actually a separate GMC forum for camping, routes, rally's, and recommended must see's would be a good idea.
It might already be going on somewhere in the interweb..

I expect it would attract a following if someone were to undertake it.

Go to the GMC facebook site. They are pretty much non-technical Or marginally technical and accurate. Usually a lot more pictures and social stuff there.
Come back here if you have a GMC Coach related question or contribution.

I don't know. Lately some of the Facebook sites have become a conglomeration of too many "Indian Chiefs" sniping at each other. I'd rather stay here. At least people are respectful.

Brian,
As we say down under; "too right, Mate!"
Gene,
That's one of the reasons I quit Facebook.

After an email exchange with Bill Massey, I did want to clarify that I shouldn't generalize too much. There are a lot of good posts and visuals at the Classic GMC Facebook site I was reviewing. Unfortunately I ran into a conversation which was turning personal and ugly (in my view), rather than just state their opinions and move on.
As I told Bill in my email to him, getting this GMC and learning about it has been a savior for me in many ways. It gets my mind off of work and the other silly crap going on in this world, and let's me find a way to literally and figuratively escape all that. I hate to see good people, who can help each other, devolve into petty bickering over something that should bring some relaxation and joy to our lives. But that's me. I'm getting older, more cynical and more of a curmudgeon, I guess.
This site and many of the others, and many of the individuals including Bill and many of the "senior" members posting on here really are an asset to the GMC community and truly help "newbies" like me.

Brien, As an attorney, you have encountered too many of this type of
conversations in your profession.
I'm sure you can realize that one need to separate the bull from useful
information.
