After monitoring this and other forums for a long time, the wife and I just ordered our first RV, an Outlook.

I know I have a lot to learn, even what all of you probably consider the "simple" stuff.

I may be asking questions...

We are looking forward to the new experience though!

Dan

Welcome to the forum! We spent last summer in your neck of the woods - had a very good service experience with the Anchorage Winnie dealer.

Everybody here is ready to help

Welcome aboard, I'm one of the new timers and have learned a lot. I know you will too.

I'm going up to Alaska in August, I might PM you some questions.

Dan welcome aboard and congrats on your new rig. Remember that isn't such a thing as a dumb question except for the question you don't ask. We were all new at this once too and I know the folks here are more then happy to lend a hand when we can.

We ordered the '08 31C.

Now we can't wait for it to arrive at the daeler!

Then I have to figure out how to actually get it. Several miles from here to there.

It's an Alaska thing, ordering stuff...

The dealer said it could be as much as 12 weeks for delivery to him.

Thanks to all who have answered questions on this and other sites!

Dan
