    Purchasing Land in Nevada - Getting an Address?

    Yes! I have looked at that some. It looks like property tax would be $10 - $40 a year depending on location which I didn't think was too bad. I figure if I ever get in a situation where I can't / don't want to pay the property tax I would just sell it for a loss.

    How to make/ buy a mattress for odd dimension bed

    Thanks for all the helpful responses! BigT I really like you 6" expansion hinge. I've been wondering how to be able to move the passenger seat forward to use the space for more bed while also being able to move it back again if I have a passenger and that seems like a good solution.
