What a very awesome set up!!! Your laws must be different on widths then ours. Having that ladder mounted on the side would make us over width.

Nice, extreamly nice. Wish I could have gotten to see it before it went north. You are going to love it

As for the width isssue, in the US your width can be up to 102". With the ladder on the side like that, Rick is just under 102". I am with mine on my Wild Cargo and I have measured it many times to make sure. The body of the Wild Cargo is 96" and the ladder does not hang out but about 5".

Plus the three inches the awnings are hanging out on the other siide. So that is 8+96=104.

Thanks Guys!! Got settled in here in Banff, Alberta. The unit pulled really nice..a few issues to deal with but nothing real big. Brought 5 montain bikes and my BMW K1300GT in the garage. Just got the Wi Fi and Sat stuff set up. Watching the NHL playoffs. Have a good long weekend in Canada.

John RR...here are the interior pictures.

My wife and I went to a "local" RV show last weekend as I wanted to have her see some of the interiors on something like yours needless to say there were not any of that class there in our small area so she'll have to settle for your pictures and some imagination.

Thank you, the insides really look they do the unit justice.
