I am just bouncing off the walls today (Sunday). Suzy Q hooked up the to trailer for the first time (Skyline 33 foot Nomad Toy Hauler) and did a 130 mile dry run. What a dream to run! All the hassles with AZ registration and all the work came together today. Life is good! I know, I know. I can...

After nearly a month of dealing with the Motor Vehicle Department (MVD, not DMV) of Arizona, Suzy Q is headed to the MVD office on Wednesday to get her plates. Commercial plates. In short, here is what I learned: * ARS 28-4301.21 lists the requirements for a motor home. Easily met for a Class 8...

Has ANYONE registered a Class 8 truck in Arizona as an RV? I understand residents in other states have done it. I tried this morning and was promptly blown off by the local Motor Vehicle Department. The Enforcement division is the next stop. Without going into the frustrating details, the...

Just HAVE to brag a little! My son and I picked up Suzy Q from Larry on Friday. After an education session from Larry (onzeman), Nate and I headed back to Phx (Chandler). Laughing, giggling, and grinning the entire way. No problems with scales. New Mexico wanted their $7.50 Transport Fee...

OK, I'm the guy from Phoenix picking up the latest onezman rig. Yup, Suzy Q will become the biggest member of the growing Chandler Iron Stable. (can't wait!!! ) OK: On to the question. For those of you that scored the Volvo setups, what did you do for INSURANCE? Who did you end up with? Any...

Keep us updated on the progress / cost / options. I'm in the process of much the same and the added information will help the final decision on my part. Pictures, we need Pictures!!!

Larry: Is the Volvo still available? Sent you an email. Chris "OX" Long

Great information! Thanks! I'll echo what has been said many times on this site, that is one Gorgeous Volvo. Onezman: you mentioned shortening the frame. Is that something commonly done? Would a dealer / truck shop normally handle that? If shortening a frame and dropping the axle is only a...

Very glad this site popped up. The holes in my Class 8 knowledge are getting fileld up! (that's a good thing). I have a couple of questions regarding the number of axles. My primary interest is an RV Hauler, not a full motor home conversion. Pulling a 20k#+ fiver/garage/worksite is the goal in...
