Reply #21: WOW. I wonder who gets those? [View All]

I've seen FEMA trailers everywhere, but I don't know anyone who's received a mobile home yet. It costs a good chunk of money to set up a house trailer. I wonder if FEMA is doing the set-up or if the residents have to have it done.

I'd love to see the photos. What a pisser that those homes are sitting where no one can use them.

Hey, here's a little tidbit. Did you know that mobile homes were not names so because they are mobile, but because they were first manufactured in Mobile, Alabama? I found that tidbit on snopes last year. Everytime a conversation develops in which someone mentions a mobile home, I tell them that little factoid. :)
