Couple sells house for permanent motorhome life
Original source: Autobahn

A Florida couple sold their house after 24 years and moved into a Jayco Redhawk motorhome for permanent travel. They chose a model built on a Ford E-450 chassis with a 7.3L V8 engine, a gross weight of 6500 kg, and a price of around $167,000. In the US, a standard driver's license is sufficient to operate such a vehicle.

Sunset Village: New 55-plus RV Park in Benton County

A new 55-plus RV park, Sunset Village, is being developed in Benton County, Minnesota, on a 10-acre property along the channel between Little Rock Lake and the Mississippi River, purchased about 1.5 years ago. The project will have 47 lots with park model homes in six styles, priced between $125,000 and $150,000, with a $6,000 annual association fee. A $500 deposit reserves a lot. Four lots have been reserved so far. The community will operate from mid-April to mid-October and include shuffleboard, horseshoes, community gardens, a dog park, walking trails, kayaks, canoes, a clubhouse or pavilion, and sunset pontoon cruises. Up to 27 boat slips have been approved.

US motorhome owner accidentally dumps waste into diesel tank, 76,000 litres of fuel discarded

At a Maverik fuel station in Montrose, Colorado, a motorhome driver mistakenly connected a waste hose to an underground diesel tank instead of the designated dump station. Between 38,000 and 76,000 litres of diesel were contaminated and deemed unsellable. The station had to temporarily close all diesel pumps and drain and clean the tank. The incident occurred over the Memorial Day weekend in May.
