Below are the results of a poll put out by http://www.work-for-rvers-and-campers.com , a place where Cat and I check often for work Camping employment in different places.

To take the poll yourself, the addy is:

There is no real reason I am posting this, other than to bring to the forefront the attitudes of RV owners across a small spectrum of RVing public.

Thanks for sharing.

Interesting, but some of the questions are a little frustrating in that they don't really capture the issue.  Also in the results, there seemed to be lots of respondents that don't like converted buses.  I suspect they aer the Ken Keesey (sp) type of phsychedelic school buses rather than the works of art we make...

Travel is more than the seeing of sights, it is a change that goes on, deep  and permanent, in the ideas of living.

Dallas,

I filled in the appropriate marks. I really don't CARE! HA.

Just kidding. It was all in you guys favor though. Do you have any stuff hanging on the outside? Maybe I should change my vote. ;D

Under comments:    It's the quality of work and ethics of the worker that make an employee useful, not where he is from, what he drives or what he's worth. Plutocrats don't like manuel labor, and the working class don't live in castles....Cable

Nothing hanging outside, just my rocking chair on the roof and the chimney sticking out the side window.  That shouldn't really be a problem should it?? ;D
Faith is not believing that God can, It's knowing that God will.

As anyone that visits campgrounds is well aware, there's a snooty component to RV'ers. 
Look for a row of factory Prevost conversions and there ya are!  ;)
And a good many late model Class A owners fall into this category too.  They don't like kids, don't like pets, and don't like noise after the sun goes down...real bunch of losers! ( in an odd sort of way)  >:(
The RV work camping poll sorta reinforces this concept.  Campgrounds don't need polls  in order to figure out what works for them.   
These snoot-units are often populated by folk from gated communities, retirees that have led a rather cloistered existance and don't wish to sort out the good from the bad proles.
They are not "campers" by definition...they are only moving about in an expensive RV.  This is how they think and have lived for most of their lives.  It's a form of self-preservation. 
When mixed up with the hoi polloi, the snoots often make good neighbors.   As long as there aren't enough of them to create a campground "class."  ;)
They are afraid of old campers and its inhabitants in the same way most of us react when somone drives up in a rent-a-wreck, 20 people alight from the wreck speaking some unknown language ,  and they're looking at the home for sale two doors down.  HELLO!   :o
I'm a 'motorhead,' and try my damndest to not park next to new, large, class A, and factory Prevosts.   
Give me neighbors with home-grown conversions, families and happy children, and dogs, any day!    ;D
Dallas...or Cat, y'all coming down for Kyle's Non-Rally?  I reckon you should!
Get out of the cold before winter hits!  As always, you got a place to throw out anchor!
