That's good to know. We spend Jan & Feb each year in an RV park in Alamo which is only a few miles from Edinburg and I don't recall seeing another TM in the area. Our TM is like a magnet there and we get frequent people stopping by who are dreading pulling or driving their "behemoths" back north and are thinking about downsizing. Most think they are looking at something that will cost less than $10K new however so I don't think we've sold any.

I can see how normal folks who just need street clothes might get by in a TM full-time but we bike, hike and jog and the clothing and equipment we take along for the variety of weather and conditions we see on our trips is a major consideration for us. I might mention that we also do self-contained bicycle touring on our tandem (maybe San Diego to St Augustine this fall) so we "DO" know how to travel light.
