Hello from Oregon

Hello Everyone,

I've spent a fair amount of time browsing through the forum and posted a few questions, btw thanks for the responses, on a couple of Forest River 5th wheels and just wanted to take moment to show off the TV and our new Cardinal 3030RL. Unfortunately work has gotten in the way of our first trip but we will be getting it out in a couple of weeks for a good shake down trip. The PDI, again thanks to this forum for suggestions, went well and our tech was very knowledgable so here's hoping to years of problem free camping. Let me know if you've got any questions about the rig as I'm more than happy to share our experience.

Happy camping.

John

Greetings from a fellow oregonian. That's a good looking rig. Did you work with Funtime RV to pick that up? We got our surveyor from them and been happy with their techs. Congrats on the new trailer!

Yes, we bought our unit at Fun Time. The experience was great from start to finish and I'd recommend them to anyone looking into a Forest River unit.

Welcome to the forums! Hopefully work won't get in the way of the second *first* trip. A good PDI can be worth the time and effort when done right.

Please do keep us updated.

Nice rig JT1920, I think I saw this where we store our trailer in Hillsboro, really looks great!
Hope you guys get a chance to get out and enjoy it. We went on our first weekend trip last week and will be going to Nehalem Bay State park next weekend.

Enjoy!

Thanks Smethers, I'm sure that's our rig you're seeing. If you happen to see us there stop by and introduce yourself. Enjoy your trip.

John
