I wanted to share something about what happens when you buy an existing Thousand Trails Lifetime membership either directly from the current membership owners, or through a campground membership broker. I belong to a Yahoo interest e-mail group of Thousand Trails members. A recent posting talked about TT corporate changing a membership from Lifetime to 10 years. Well, legally, I don't think they can change a standing contract, but when the transfer paperwork comes through from TT corporate on the SALE of a Lifetime membership, they insert a clause in the transfer agreement that the buyer MUST agree to, that limits the transferred membership until the 10th anniversary of the transfer transaction. These memberships for sale are listed as "Lifetime", but the TT Corporate transfer legalese changes them into just a 10 year membership.
