The Tidewater Crabs have a busy August ahead. August 8th, at least 4 TWC coaches will be participating in the All GM Show at Montgomery College in Rockville, MD. We encourage anyone in the DMV to come on by as we promote the heck out of these beautiful machines. (GMCMI president David Blackshear and his wife Sue will be at the show as well.)

The next weekend (Aug 14-16) we are gathering near beautiful Charlottesville, VA for our August rally. We may still be able to get more camping spaces if there are any folks would would like to join us. Please PM me if you are interested in attending if you aren't a member of the Crabs and are interested in joining us.

Eric and Joanna will be there with their coach. They were at Montross without their coach. There may be a couple others that weren't at Montross as well. I'll keep you posted.

werewilfs wrote on Sat, 08 August 2015 18:59Had a great time at the All GM Show today. We probably had about 200 people walk through our coaches. Half of which said "I wish I hadn't done that because now I want to buy one.".  ... Anyone that can keep a carbureted, points/condenser/coil ignition engine running can own one with confidence that only a catastrophic suspension event will keep them from getting where they are trying to go.
Unfortunately, the majority of people don't know anything about an internal combustion engine, want low maintenance mechanicals, a working genset, plumbing and electrical infrastructure, and aesthetically pleasing interior/exterior. That's where the effort and expense weeds out the wannabees from the haftabees. The ones that are left are the DIYers, the ones with fat wallets, and the ones that can sleep in a box and pee in a can if a couple of house systems fail. All owners are some combination of the above.
So most of the TZEs are unused and abandoned.
