Sounds like a very nice Rig !! You all planning any trips soon? I know I can't wait to take ours out for the first trip. Only had it a couple of weeks. Still getting things setup and waiting on the kids to get out of school for spring break so we can go somewhere!!!!

Its just me and the DW. we are retired and travel a few times per year. we will probably camp host at North bend park during memorial day( local) and we travel to Virginia beach regularly to visit our 7 kids and 14 grand kids and a few great gr kids. usually stay 3 or 4 days at a time. We have been camping about 40 years. we love this camper for the room. 2 slides and we removed the front sofa and dinette booth and put in table and chairs and 2 recliners.

Have you done any "dry runs" camping in the yard? It's always a good idea. Helps find any of those "little" things wrong, and helps remind you of things you need to buy/carry.

No dry run yet, but messing with it every chance I get! I have also found a starter newbie list. That looks like a very handy thing to have around when packing the camper and getting it ready to go!

You should try the driveway camping adventure. Cook & eat in the trailer, relax in the trailer and sleep in the trailer. That will give you a good idea of what you will need or want to take with you. It will also let you know if you need to add a foam topper on your mattress. A lot of people buy the memory foam found at wall mart. We have been able to get by with the "egg shell carton" type foam pad with a padded mattress cover.

If nothing else, it will be an adventure.

Yea the egg crate sounds like something I need to look into, or the memory foam. Bed is kinda hard but I think we will manage Hey Gary and Trish thats a nice looking rig you have there! You all newbies too or veterans!
