      I do the same thing with the personalities 😂 it’s so bad I’ve bought things at the store I didn’t want because I’ve thought of putting them back and the others making fun of them for being rejected 😂😂😂

      Can’t wait until our move day arrives. Only 11 more days to pick up our Brinkley at General RV in Canton, Ohio. May you be blessed with good health, safe travels, and many many happy memories. ❤

      We are getting our Class C soon! We will be buying from Wil and Matt. We love these two wonderful families. Then we can camp with them ❤️😃

      Cool video. You always keep it by real with sharing mishaps, like running out of water before your hair was rinsed. That means the water tank you were at ran dry or be empty? I never thought that would happen. I loved Matt in the bloopers declaring your 1/2 bath PPPP! 😂

      Curious as to how the CAT scale weights compare to the actual sticker on your rig? Please post. Thank you.

      You guys are amazing. Thank you for sharing your stories, I know it has to be hard. Jasper knows how much you both loved him. Keep healing and keep us informed on your next adventure. ❤❤

      This video hit close to home! In early March, I decided to become a full timer. First, I had to empty my 22 foot Coachmen travel trailer so I could prepare it for trade in. I visited my local RV dealer (Mid-State RV in Byron, GA) and after reviewing their inventory and the Alliance website, I decided on a 2023 Alliance Avenue 32RLS (sound familiar?). At about the same time, my realtor sold my house before it was even cleaned, listed, or advertised for sale. So, I had to move the "keeper" items out of the house and two garages to a storage unit quickly so that my estate liquidators could prepare my remaining belongings for a "living" estate sale. On 1 April 2023, I visited MId-State RV again, traded-in the travel trailer, and completed the purchase of the Avenue. At that time, I did not have a truck stout enough to tow the Avenue nor did I have a parking spot at an RV park. On 3 April 2023, I moved into a local hotel so that the estate liquidators could do their thing without my "help." On 6 April 2023, I got a call from a local RV park letting me know that they had a parking spot for me. I immediately paid them a visit and jumped all over the parking spot. On 8 April 2023, the RV park owner met me at MId-State RV and dragged the Avenue to its new parking spot and helped me get it situated (during a driving rain storm). On 9 April 2023, I visited my storage unit and started moving the RV essentials to the RV park. On 10 April 2023, I checked out of the hotel early and continued moving goodies from the storage unit to the RV park. Later that same day (10 April 2023), I spent my first night in the Avenue. I was so tired, the thin Avenue king mattress actually slept pretty good. During the next couple of days, I made numerous trips from the storage unit to the RV park. I think I have pretty much moved everything into the Avenue that needs to be here. My estate liquidators will host their sale at my house on 22-23 April 2023, and we'll close on the house on 28 April 2023. On that Friday, it will probably sink in that I made the BIG step to full time (at the age of 74). To Wil and Jen and Tucker — I hope the Paradigm is an even better home than the Avenue. Good luck to you! Lou from Georgia. PS — I have ordered a new Ford F-250 diesel to be the Avenue's tow wagon.

      Me and my fiancé moved from a 2018 keystone premier to a 21 grand design reflection 337rls and the way we did it was we parked the campers as close as we could side by side. Got a lot of box’s and we packed everything in boxes and labeled them where they came front in the keystone. Then once we got everything packed we loaded all the boxes into the reflection then unpacked. You don’t realize how much stuff you pack in a camper till you change campers😂
