The IRV2 Alpine Coach Forum will soon reach a milestone, 10,000 Posts! I never expected this when I proposed the forum in Feb 2003. Thanks everyone for the fellowship and free exchange of information.

A big thanks also to the staff of IRV2 for giving us this opportunity. Hope to see some of you in Newport next month.

We bought an Alpine (our very first RV) because of this forum. Thanks to Danny and others on this forum, we have never regretted it!!

Great job...all of us

Danny,

I thought it might have been you that got this rolling. Thanks for a great service to all of us Alpine owners and your continued service as moderator.

During my last camp out at camp WRV I talked to many owners that said that they read the forum but don't post. Most of these nice people had many good ideas and information on their coach. Now if we could just figure out how to coax them into sharing their ideas and information with the rest of us this would be even greater than it is now.

Congratulations and Thank You!

I think this achievement is even more distinguished given the relatively low number of Alpine owners. WRV should be thankful too.

Chris Cross was 10,000 with his coolant post.

Who will be 100,000?

Danny,

Congratulations on such a successful forum. We learned of the iRV2 Alpine Coach forum on the very first trip in our new coach. I also believe it is appropriate the Chris Cross was the 10,000 th post because it was Chris who made it a point to stop by space at Pismo Coast Village in June of 2005 to share this site information. While we are not very talkative, post wise, on this form, there is not one day that goes by that I don't receive and read my automatic e-mail post updates. I have learned so many things about our coach from our forum friends and fellow Alpine owners that it could literally fill volumes.

Again congratulations and thanks!

Guess that should do it for another couple of years. KEEP IT UP!

We'd like to add our thanks as well. This forum has been so beneficial - don't know what we'd have done w/o it at times. We appreciate it and the work you've put into it.

During my last campout at Camp WRV, I asked WRV if they had considered an open WiFi network at the site where Alpine owners could send and receive email. An active on-site WiFi network, with encouragement from WRV towards irV2.com and the Alpine Forum, might entice more owners to participate and share experiences.

Danny & Claudia Gayhart,
We have never meet but have spoken on the forum a few times but I think that the thanks to you and your wife should be overwhelming for what you have done for all of us Alpine owners.
Thank you so very much for your tremendous amount of time and your generosity to contribute to something a lot of us just took for granted.

Thank you so very much and I am certain that is from all of us.

The original Camp WRV plans I saw years ago did include a WiFi network. It may still be on the drawing board.
