It’s been quite a while since I’ve discussed this subject–and Liberty is to blame for a good portion of that. You may recall that I’ve kept track of the monthly reporting on Liberty’s financials from their monthly newsletters (see here), monthly share amounts (here) and a variety of other changes. But those monthly newsletters lapsed,…

The Silverware Drawer
Everybody has one. Forks, knives, spoons, and usually some other random stuff. You probably have it all organized in a plastic tray, or perhaps custom dividers, that fill most of the drawer.

Quick Update on Towing Speed Limits
You’ve asked, now they’re posted. For each of the most common RV combinations, we’ve generated maps color coded by the maximum speed you’re legally allowed to travel. See the full detail here. We’ll be adding similar maps for the lemon law pages very soon.
Is your Towable RV a Lemon?
Once again, hopefully not. But we know towable RVs with chronic problems–lemons–do exist. We talked about which states include motorized RVs in their lemon laws last time; click/tap here to see which states also include towable RVs.
Is your Motorhome a Lemon?
We hope not! If you think your motorhome might be a lemon, legally or otherwise, you have some work to do. You’re concerned with getting it fixed for good, or bought back by the manufacturer. Laws covering motorhomes under state law vary quite a bit, from coverage just like a car to none at all….
Speed Limit Increases in Montana, OK, AR
A while back, we posted a guide to general maximum speed limits applicable to RVs here. As laws are constantly changing, we periodically have to make changes. Here are a few from the beginning of 2019. As has been the trend for more than 20 years, they’re all increases. Montana Speed Limits Now 70 for…
