Post by: WayAbvPar on July 21, 2005, 04:19:40 PM We need to update the vernacular- trailers should be called disposable homes instead of mobile homes. How often are they mobile? That's right, only when a tornado or hurricane happens by.

Levine and others bristle at the term "trailer." To be permitted in the park, the home must be perched on piers (a high-end version of up on blocks). Priceless. It's not a trailer because it's on piers, dontcha know? That makes it a "villa" instead! Title: Re: The topic writes itself.
