Canadian Invasion

Hello All
MY wife and I just traded our 2005 Sunseeker in on a 2011 Blue Ridge 3600RS, Still waiting to take possession. We have been Forest River owner for the past 5 years, and believe Forest River/Blue Ridges to be the best value out there. (I like anything with a remote control) it's sweet.

The plate on the front of my motorhome was "If you can't run with big dogs, then stay on the porch"

Happy Camping to all, and maybe we see you along the way
.

Lucky you - and yes you are correct the Blue Ridge offers a lot. What is your tow vehicle?

I am 2-3 years from official retirement and I plan on getting one too, that is if the planets are aligned OK....

Have a great time this coming summer.

Thanks All,

we do not have a tow vehicle yet. I guess, it like buying the cart before you have the horse. But still looking,

My guess something along the lines of an F250/350 dually or bigger.
