Hello all, New here but have been watching and reading from afar. My DW and I have just upgraded from a pop-up to a TT and I will be transfering soon. I look forward to chatting and learning from the best.

Congratulations and Happy, Safe and Carefree camping in your new TT.

We've done the tent to PUP to TT twice. Once in the 1980's and then again starting in tents again in the mid-90's to a PUP in 2004 and a Jayco Flight 20BH in 2006. Just traded up to a 2008 Jayco Flight G2 29RLS in May and we are loving it. We're camped in it right now and having a great time. The slide out makes it wonderful, particularly on rainy days.

I think you'll be very happy with your new TT. It is going to increase your camping enjoyment tremendously!

It's said ignorance and apathy cause most of the world's problems, but I don't know and I don't care.

Boy I hope so, The wife and I plus three kids 10,4, and 4mths. I come from a racing family and we spent our summers going from track to track all over Ohio. I would like my kids to expierience what I and my brother did when we were that young. My 4 year old daughter loves racing but my 10 yo not so much. Time will tell for the boy.

Thanx all for the greeting!!

We also had 3 kids three years apart. All of them loved camping. DW and I were Scout Leaders - her with 2 girls 15+ years and me 11+ with son. Sometimes my daughter from a previous marriage would go with us when we had PUP.

First PUP was a Coleman Williamsburg. It slept 2 adults a 4 kids just fine. We traded up to a 26 ft TT when we were going on a month long trip up the BRP. No more cranking up at campsites and we had tanks for gray & black water. DW says greatest thing was being able to go to bathroom wherever we stopped and getting in fridge to make lunch at pullover stops.

Got back into PUP so we could take pups camping with us after I ran last kid off from home (last dog-sitter). The pups think we bought this great castle just for them. They really like it a lot more than they did PUP. They didn't like staying in PUP at campsite very much but have their own spots in TT - their "comfort zones". Still want to go outside some but not like before in PUP.

Now we're getting grandchildren camping with us along with their Mom and Dad. Just got a new one end of June, can't wait to get him started camping with PawPaw and Mimi.
