Kay
Since Alan and I seem to be in tune, who the hell needs your handbag - unless it is stuffed with €500 notes for us to have a good knees-up in Spain?

I think this could prove an interesting and useful thread. If you come across any vans with a huge payload that also have my beloved rear lounge then post them on here! I looked at the Poor excuse for a Kontiki Arapaho which is a tag with a rear lounge but Alan put me off saying they were shite build. When I looked into it though regarding the scooter rack it was still touch and go regarding the payload and rear axle weights. I couldnt beleive it. The problem was the length of the overhang. On a single axle you measure the distance from the middle of the rear wheel to the back of the van to do the overhang weight calculation but on a tag you have to measure from the middle of the two rear wheels which on the Arapaho was about six mile thus making the bike weight more than the van (hang on that cannot be right). Summut like that. Anyway here is the calculator to use should you go for a scooter. www.practicalmotorhome.com/advice/safe-loading-and-payloadsA Hank replacement will have to happen some time but Im with you Geoff on this one. Payload is king. Dear Chief Fruitcake Only you could want a rear lounge and then hang a scooter in front of the window! And don't forget the ladder across the back window either.

Thanks, but no thanks Kay. I might do if ever I'm annoyed about anything though.

I thought we were having a gentlemanly and civilised discussion about the fact that some US RVs were a little lacking in taste and apparently more or less agreeing WHEN Some Welsh witch lady decided to try to stir things up - huh - just wait till I talk to her boss, then she will be in for a right slapping - no maybe that might be too enjoyable - so maybe another 6 months of supervising this lot of Fri=uit and Nut Cakes? [See Barry Boss, I said I would get you a free pass back to the Alps quite soon]

How should I know why he hasn't got one? Maybe the other half keeps it so he doesn't let himself down?

ORDER! ORDER! ORDER! This is this Topic's Speaker talking (shouting - to get heard above the rabble on here) Ladies and Gentlmen. Considering that we are in the TechMech subforum, which as our Leader described is 'boring but essential' , I was most gratified to note that contributors on page 1 were most helpful, even Jim was not talking out of the top of his gnomes periwinkle, or his Avatar on Fucts) Since then it has gone seriously off-topic, ever since Kay offered to lend her WMD(namely her handbag - for no discernable reason, at least to Alan and I) May I invite those of you who are sufficiently bored by TechMech to sidle quietly off to the Abuse Forum, so that I can be lead sufficiently astray to part with loads of money [No I am not telling you how much!] Ever-so politely yours Geoff
