I think it may be time to change my tag line. Still have the F250, but have on order a 2011, Crossroads Cruiser CF305SK, nearly 33 feet long, 3 slides, lots of insulation, big holding tanks. However now the bad news, we are both still (hide your eyes, you know what's coming) WORKING. That makes it hard to get away and use it as much as we would like, but that will change some day as well. We will start out just doing the weekend thing and eventually work into extended stay when we feel the time is right. No plans to full time, to much sentimental stuff for my DW passed down from her family, and I completely understand and am quite content to stay out a few weeks/months at a time. Hope to catch up with some of you fine people someday.

Well, Robert. I think most of us start that way. Our first camper was a TT about 15 feet long. The next one was 21', followed by a 26' TT then a 26' fifth wheel. As you probably know, we now have the Mobile Suites and F450.
For many a year, our vacations were no longer than 1 week, with not all 7 days being spent in the mountains. In 2009, we finally decided to spend 2 weeks somewhere in the mountains, and Jo insisted that if we were gonna be up there that long, she wanted HOOKUPS.
That is when we discovered the 26' fifth wheel was way too small for spending much time in. The joyous thing is that you now have a better one yourself, and will be on the way to enjoying the RV thing more often.
Hang in there on the working. We are still as well.
Congratulations on the order.
