Some clarifying & an update

Yesterday, Nancy, my better half, realized that I had not explained that the RV we purchased was actually down in California at the factory when we puchased it up here in Boise. The RV we looked at was a sister coach and was equipped exactly as we wanted our coach. Obviously, some things were different such as the dinette instead of a table with free standing chairs, ours only had two tv's and we wanted recliners instead of the second couch and a satellite.That's why it's taking so long to get our coach ready.

I went to the dealership today and spent some time with the RV tech who's doing the work. We took the new tv out of it's box and put in in it's place, mid coach. It should work out very well.

I'm still doubtful about their ablilityto deliver the coach tomorrow. They still have to finish the dinette removal, finish the tv installation, do a fair amount of cosmetic woodwork, patch several places in the carpet where they've removed things, and install the sleepcomfort bed. They also have to wash and clean the coach for delivery. Oh yeah, they also have to assemble the tow dolly.

I forgo to talk about the "TOAD. We will be towing Nancy's 1998 Ford Contour. We bought it new in 1998 and it's in excellent condition. It only has about 40,000 miles on it and we just can't justify replacing it. The probem with it is that according to Ford and other resources, you can't flat tow a 1998 Ford Contour. Henceforth, the tow dolly. I really don't like the idea of hastling with it when it comes to storage, either at the storage facility that we use or at the campground. We'll try it for awhile and see if it irritates me enough to cough up the extra money to replace it.

I continue to study the manuels for the new coach. I,m spending as much time reading about this thing as I did learning how to fly a new jetliner. Of course, I'll own this. On the other hand, no one is paying me to drive it. Ahaaaa, the way's of the world!
