Greetings everyone - I have been monitoring the iRV Forum over the last two years. I have finally decided to join in. I have seen a lot of very useful information shared by everyone and some have applied to me for resolution and I thank you for all. As of July 2016 we are the proud owners of a 2016 a Thor Four Winds 31L and with that finally took my west coast vacation with it. The trip was to where I grew up in Wyoming and a chance to show my grandson Tetons and Yellowstone while base camping in Dubois, Wyoming. Nine wonderful days of camping with him and his parents, wife and I headed south to Ramah, New Mexico to visit with my sister. Finally time to head home and navigated a total of 7,300 miles in short of five weeks. Super trip! Would love to do it again and may in the future. Wife experienced with this coach and the trip excited her enough to also want more. It was beyond all our expectations.

Minor issues along the route including a jackknife scenario while attempting to get into a campground in New York. Forgot to tell that I also tow a 2010 Jeep Wrangler. Sooooo, here we are checking in and it won't be the last time. Looking forward to sharing our experiences and gaining information from yours.

Welcome to the forum, Anchor-D! Congrats on the new rig! Sounds like you guys had a great time! We just took our coach on a month long trip from Texas up through CO, WY, ID, UT, OR, CA and back. Just a wonderful trip and so much to see. Life's too short and unpredictable. Gotta get out there and enjoy it. Be safe and keep having fun!
P.S.: Thank you so much for your service to our country!

Grand Tetons and Yellowstone is an area everyone should visit at least once in their lives. Has a way of putting your personal significance in respect to the earth in proper perspective.

Glad you are enjoying your rig.
