I asked a while ago with RockinTom as the only one who will be in our area in Oct, so I thought I'd ask again and see if anyone's plans have changed and will be venturing through/around Monterey, CA before then? My wife and I are very interested in a new WC and intend on ordering soon. But it would be nice to see a newer Excel product in person just to see quality. Thanks!

btw, RockinTom, if you're still going to be headed down the 101S in mid Oct, if we haven't been able to find a newer Excel by then, we'd love to check yours out if the offer still stands.

TJ

We stay at Park Sierra in the Fall and Spring. North of Fresno, outside of Coarsegold. Expect to arrive in early Oct.

Too bad we didn't know earlier. We spent several days at Laguna Seca last May.

But then maybe ours is too old.

I wish that was a little closer to us! Unfortunately I'm not retired yet so I can't get away to come check out your unit. Thanks for getting back to me though. Have a fantastic trip!

Too bad we didn't catch you at Laguna Seca! I live about 3 miles away from there. Don't know if we can make it up to Fresno...I think we'll try to catch Rockin' when he drives through Salinas headed South. Thanks for the offer!

Of course I just noticed the multi quote tab on my third individual reply! haha. Anyway, Rockin', sounds great, I'd love to plan on it. If you want to stay in Monterey on your way down, let me know and I can sponsor you at the military rv park.

Ooooh, you know how to hurt a guy.

I was hoping you kept those first two Excels out in the back 40, so I could use 'em for spares. But then you probably rode 'em hard and put 'em away wet.

Rockin'Tom,

I sent you a message back the other day but I'm willing to bet it got marked as spam so you may not have seen it. I would love to coordinate with you to meet up when you're down our way. Let us know...

I never got it, spam or otherwise. Thanks for replying here. Please send me another email and we'll do the final details off line. Later, rockin tomclapham@hotmail.com
