Congrats on the purchase!

The 5er does look a little more deserving of a dually than the pop-up.

All the counter space in the rear kitchen models is nice.
I'm sure you guys will love it.

Yeah, Byron a lot of work. It was an awesome setup, room for a full size ATV up front and supplies on the back. I pulled the refrigerator out, put a 19,000 BTU furnace in it, pressurized water, 3500 pound axles under it…. I actually sold the set up for $5500.

John, we are on our 2nd 5th wheel now and love it. We will never go back to travel trailers...

We just returned home from this spot in the mountains 10 miles down a Forest Service road where we saw 1 other person in 48 hours. It rained nearly the entire time, so we came down off the mountain and decided to watch the weather and head back up in a few days from now.

A couple of pictures are below, enjoy the 5th wheel... There is no other way to camp...



Our spot in the forest.

The creek fork that was 25 feet from the back of the camper.

I put that tint on my windshield in a 99% clear shade and like your truck, it made a dramatic difference in how well the AC keeps up.

Headed back into the mountains tomorrow because the forecast is sunny and mid 70's for the next several days.

Round 2 of mountain boondocking coming up!

Cheers!


Sweet Water brewery seasonal brew.

Nope, but they do make a damn good product! I think I have mentioned this before, but the brewery is near Atlanta and I have expressed a good deal of interest to tour it for my birthday this year to my wife. Grab a burger, tour the brewery... sounds like a great day to me...

Finally getting some good, I mean really good, I mean awesome weather here. We've had excessive rain here for the last two years but this week so far we're up to three (3) awesome, crystal clear days with low humidity and highs in the low 70's. I could get used to this.
