Stopped at genef's for breakfast before leaving NH.

Trip was great and uneventful like it should be, hit a little lake effect snow in NY but not too bad. Arrived around midnight my time (11PM WI time) on Friday night and got a hotel room. Picked up the camper around 10AM on Saturday, did the walk thru and it took them about 10-15 minutes to complete the WDH install. We left CFO around noon and got to my son's place in NH around 8:30Am on Sunday. I got home to my place in Maine around noon. Got the camper setup except for the bunkends and fired up the furnace, spent about 4 hours in it reading the manuals and listenting to the stereo. Can't wait til spring!!!!
 
The camper is great and my truck seemed to tow it with ease with the Equal-i-zer WDH with sway control. My truck got horrible gas mileage on the way back. I know it is just about due for new plugs, cap and rotor. I also know that it gets worse gas mileage when it is cold. But 7.5mpg at 65mph is horrible, hopefully the warmer weather and tuneup will make all the difference. I did get almost 10mpg doing a steady 55mph.

Congrats on the new trailer Chas! :S
 
Seems with the hybrids around, the normal progression of tent->popup->TT->Class A is being interrupted for a while! ;)
