An Idea

I don't know if this idea can go anywhere, but maybe someone with more connections than me can follow up on it.

There are a lot of RVs out there in storage. We have one (not a fancy schmancy one - an older one) in storage. We are still making payments on it (you get a mini mortgage with those - 11 or 12 years to pay them off). A family of 3 or 4 could live in our RV, easily.

I would be happy to donate my RV to a family, if the loan company will let me (we would still make the payments on it until it is paid off). We don't use it much, and it is decent shelter. John lived in it for nearly 2 years when we were first married and he got moved to Ft. Sam Houston and I stayed here in Leavenworth.

There are two complications. First, someone would have to get it to an RV park for us, because we can't take off work to drive it there. Second, someone would have to make sure we can do this legally and the loan company would have to allow us to transfer ownership to the people who need it yet still trust me to continue paying on it until it is payed off completely.

There are thousands and thousands of RVs in this country which are only used for a few weeks or months of the year. Wouldn't it be nice if someone could make it easy to offer these vacation rvs to families?

Any lawyers out there have any ideas? Or politicians?
