Checking in from S/E Michigan
Good Morning all. New to the site but not new to camping.
We started camping years ago using tents as many have done. After the hassle of wet everything when it rained we decided to upgrade to a StarCraft pop up style with a slideout. We ran this unit for about 6 years and upgraded to a Shamrock 23 footer with 3 bump outs and had this set up for short time before just recently upgrading to a 2014 Prime Time Avenger 33BHS pulled by a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 with Cummins Diesel.
Hope this is a great place to learn and share ideas. See everyone in the other forums.

Welcome and congrats on your 2014 Prime Time Avenger 33BHS. I think people who upgrade their way up appreciate the amenities more. Although I enjoyed our tent days as I did out popup and hybrid days I don't think I could ever go back.

Welcome, Hope you enjoy your tt more then we have our's this year. We were in the suburban Detroit area last weekend and actually turned on the a/c as we headed north on I-75. I-75 was closed due to power lines from summer storm,.Checking snow levels as we went North, almost gone until after the Straits where it was 33 degrees. All familiar campsites were locked in snow drifts and the straits and lakes were frozen. Two snowstorms and temperatures as low as -9f this week leave lots of room for improvement. Don't know where we will park TT as it is overdue to come out of storage. Start the year soon, south of the Bridge enjoy your new Primetime.

Yeah, it was about 78F on the weekend. Then we got 2" of snow on tuesday. Right after I dewinterized the TT.
