Welcome! You aren't too far from us, about an hour or so. I have a nephew in St Charles. Hope you have lots of fun with your rv and especially with that new grandson.

Congrats on the new motor home. Don't worry about the hills. We took ours out to the west coast and in the Mts, we had no problem towing the toad. That V-10 has plenty of power. Saying that, the cruise control is very sensitive and will down shift on even small hills or overpasses on the interstates.

We must be related! All we have to do is plan a camping trip and Bingo it rains. Our tag reads RAYNMKR. the I version was already taken. DROUGHTBUSTER was too many letters. Enjoy, brighter days are ahead.

Fun Delivered

We took delivery of the 09 370TS yesterday. We had 1.9 in of rain before we left but the clouds cleared and everything went ok after that. My co-pilot and I left the dealer with huge smiles which only got bigger as we may our way the 30 miles back home. We turned into our driveway and the coach fit perfectly thru our gate. Turned around, leveled and started to put our gear away. Today we will get ready to go to a park nearby for our first night out in the coach !! We are looking for our toad as well as our car and truck or not towable. We have'nt told our son about this ( lives in Va.) so we are really looking forward to showing up there one day ! Okay everyone thanks again for the welcomes and be safe out there .
