RV sized Recliners

Yep, no more "launching".... -
First time visit - have questions
Grumpy and Grandma replied to disneynana's topic in Fort Wilderness Loops Information
Never had to move, but always had to check back in every month when we did our long term stints. -
Don't know if you followed this thread, but repairs like this aren't cheap. They also rewired numerous loops recently and added the wireless internet network. I don't like the high prices either, but add that to the demand for camp sites and the prices rise. http://www.fortfiends.net/topic/19032-did-i-miss-something/

RV sized Recliners

We got two power recliners at Macy's. They fit in a 65" space with about 4" in between. They delivered and put them in the FW. -
How big is to big?
Grumpy and Grandma replied to K4DCF's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I'd have a note added to your reservation asking for 1600, 1700 or 1800 due to your length. 1900 is the tightest of the 4 loops. You might do OK in the new 2000, but those sites seem a little smaller. -
Where's DIT when you need him?

Did I miss something?
Grumpy and Grandma replied to rtguy007's topic in Disney and Fort Construction
But this kind of repair (underground utilities and roadway) is one very big reason why their up keep and maintenance costs for the FORT are not cheaper than a resort. Once you start digging these issues can multiply, you don't actually know what the problem really is until then. -

Things I saw camping
Grumpy and Grandma replied to Beckers's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Body shops will tell you that is the #1 repair for FW owners. -
It's like any product you only hear the bad. Just like cars you always hear from the guy who got the "lemon", but rarely from the guy who got the " rose". You have to look at the brand's and the dealer's reputation. A bad dealer is usually worse than a bad unit because they don't care about service after the sale.

That video has been sped up to fit a certain time constraint by a competitor and has been debunked. I've toured both the FW plant and the MH plant and it is nothing like that. We're on our 3rd JAYCO since 2001(put ovet 50,000 miles on each mh a 2001 and a 2008) and have about 15 000 on our 2015 FW. My problems have been caused by common components (Coleman, Carefree, Norcold ). JAYCO gives you a 2 yr warranty and had an A/C repaired AT THE FORT in 48 hrs, never had to move. Before those 3 had 5 STARCRAFT units since 1977 (now owned by JAYCO) and would gladly do it all over again.

Planning for 2019 Yellowstone/UT/AZ/CO roadtrip
Grumpy and Grandma replied to ImDownWithDisney's topic in Regular Vacations
Grizzly RV Park in West Yellowstone is outstanding and less than a mile from the park entrance. I highly recommend using the tour services they find the wildlife know when to hit Ole Faithful and you don't have to fight traffic.

Campground close to Disney
Grumpy and Grandma replied to Campingdad's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
As Rita mentioned, Lake Magic also Thousand Trails and Citrus Valley off of 27 just N of 192. If you use any of these you can go in and out of WDW the back way on Western Way.
