First trip!!!! I was hoping for a close weekend shake down, but got a call to meet family (and only grandson!) down at Red Rock Canyon (sw Nevada) so scrambled to get ready enough and last week made the 550 mile one way trip and it was awesome. She tows beautifully and everything was great. Well, maybe a few minor issues but overall even better than I'd hoped for first time out. But of course there is still a long need to do and want to do list. A few of the new to us things in the trailer we liked: An oven....frozen pizza for the grandson. Hot water the solar...not worrying about having enough light to read at night. the propane light over the dining table...love it and used it every morning and evening as it was cold all week there. new regulator that automatically switches over little freezer in the norcold. And enough head room to stand up. Here's a shot: Nevada sunrise

Thanks Danny. Just home from a great road trip to SW. So now have over 3,000 miles this spring—-everything from dirt and gravel to those nasty interstates and probably a dozen mtn. passes. I’m very comfortable with the old girl’s road worthyness now. Lots of dirt, a few dings, a broken window and a bent tongue jack. But as they say in the classic car world, she’s a “ daily driver”.
