Hi everyone, my name is Gary and the proud (hopefully) new owner of a 1995 Winnebago Vectra 34' (gas)

I have gone over it pretty good and found some minor things wrong and will probably be a regular poster on here for awhile.

Just wanted to stop in and introduce myself! Have a great weekend.

Gary,

Welcome to the forum. We bought our first RV, a 1994 Winnebago Brave, last year. We went over it thoroughly and were proactive about getting anything that needed to be done fixed. Then we got to enjoy it right away and had a wonderful trouble free summer! I hope yours goes the same way.

Michelle

Hi Gary, and Welcome to the Forum!

The Vectra is a fine motorhome and you'll no doubt enjoy it.

Post again with any questions and especially when you've taken it out on your first trip. Enjoy!
