The below is a message I'm posting on behalf of Mike Schneider, CEO, Affinity
To all Open Roads Forum members:
I’d like to take a moment and express my deep appreciation for your participation on these forums. As an avid reader of these pages, I am constantly inspired by the depth and breadth of knowledge so many of you express here, and by the generous ways in which you share your insights. The commitment you show to the RV community encourages me, my staff, and our many fine moderators, to continue to invest time and effort towards making sure these forums are superior.
As you know, the RV marketplace has been faced with multiple challenges during the past year, some of which are ongoing. I want to clearly state that Affinity is committed as ever to responding to and overcoming these challenges. By listening, learning, focusing, and putting our members’ needs first, we know that we can continue to serve the RV community in the manner in which it deserves.
Affinity has proudly served the RV community for many, many years with the utmost in integrity and quality. Some of our products, in fact, have been around for decades, such as the Good Sam Club at 40+ years, Trailer Life at 60+ years and our granddaddy, Woodall’s, about to celebrate its 75th anniversary. During that time we’ve learned that we must constantly keep up with the changing marketplace and listen to you as we keep our offerings relevant and current.
As we strive to improve and innovate in the upcoming months you may have noticed and will continue to find some minor changes or additions to some of the portals of the forum. Please know that these upcoming changes are intended to both maximize the quality of content on the forums while balancing our need to cover our costs of operation. We endeavor to continue to provide you free access to these forums, and we are able to do so thanks to your patronage of the RV.net family of products and services such as Good Sam Club, Trailer Life Directory, Trailer Life Magazine, MotorHome Magazine, Camp Club USA, and Woodall's to name just a few.
Again, I personally thank you for your patronage of these fine brands. I am proud we are able to provide you with such forums to express your wisdom, wit, and passion for all things RV, and I anticipate a bright future for RVing.
Mike Schneider,
CEO, Affinity

I would like to thank Affinity for providing this forum. It is an extremely valuable resource for 10’s of thousands of RV’ers. I can’t begin to list off all the things I have learned from my participation over the years. But, I think we all tend to take the forum's existence a little for granted since it has have been around for so long and participation is open to everyone free of charge. Thanks again for the commitment of time and treasure to keep this valuable resource available to all of us during this difficult time in the RV industry; better times are down the road.
Brad

A big Thank You from me also.
I have learned more here than I can possibly describe. This is by far the best RV forums, as well as the finest group of helpful folks I've ever had the pleasure of communicating with.
I hope to someday share a campfire with many of the members here.
Happy trails,and waggin' tails,

As a newcomer to campers, until I read Mike's message, it wasn't clear to me who owned or operated this forum. I'll echo the above comments, this is the best forum on any topic that I've participated in, a tremendous resource. If it weren't for this forum, I may not have purchased a Truck Camper. Thanks to all of you that have helped me explore this new venture.
