Bumped it up!!


Radio: I should've bumped my head for a hitch discount. Our trailer has been home for a week and everyone loved your story I put on the table for them to read. Happy Camping.

Nice story. My DW and I purchased a used TT in 2002 and now 6 years and 3 kids later, we need more room! We've been pre-approved and are talking to RV Wholesalers about a new 5th wheel Cruiser. Hopefully we can order ours next week. I hope you enjoy yours!

Your career should be in either short story writing, or, perhaps a novel, depending on how it plays out (either a well built unit with minor issues, or a poorly built one causing you grief).

Like others have said, well written.

We picked up ours in Elkhart also, an 838 mile drive up, well worth it for sure.

Good luck.

NEWS FLASH!

Got an email from RVW today stating the tenative roll-out date for our Rockwood 8280SS will be June 18. They expect delivery in 7 to 10 days there after. Odds are we will have the trailer home by 4th of July.

Just another reason to celibrate.

For those keeping score we ordered on May 9.

We have the hitch installed (clunk, clunk, clunk...dang it...put a bungee on that thing!!) and all the stuff we have rounded up to load up the trailer is carefully checklisted, stacked in the basement. All there is to do now is wait!
