Ron,
Did those guys talk you into a new one?

Any manufacturers displaying new floorplans?

Two other Ambassadors are working in Quartzsite and there is a New Rexall UFO on display and it has generated a great deal of interest in the Desert. You have to wait in line to see this one.

Enjoyed the show Sunday and stopped by to chat for a while with some friends. I was the distinguished gentleman with the moustash in the leather jacket walking with a cane.

The chassis are pretty all painted up in yellow now arn't they and the boys were pretty knowledgable.

A good time was had by all.

They wouldn't have to talk me into the UFO because the ride is so stable, it's kin to driving my Son's Porsche around a tight turn.

I only looked at the 37' Latitude, there were others there but I didn't get around to look at them. I drove the 36' Georgetown last year.

One bit of news I did pick up, for me at least, Workhorse is shrinking the frame down to the 22,000 so the MH manufacturers can build me a MH in the 33' floor plan.

Neil,

Were you standing outside in front of the building around noon time and is your cane black? I only remember seeing one gentleman walking around with a cane and if that was you I sure wished I had known.

Ron

Ron,

Mid 50's, 6 foot tall, salt and pepper graying, wearing a brown leather jacket, blue jeans and a dark brown cane.

Sorry we missed you. If I wasn't with a group who had specific needs I was going to look up driver and maybe see if he was up to turning a small stone into a bagel or such for us but then again not sure if he would have seen the humor in that.

At that time we had made our way through the Essexes and were on our way to the Winnie and Monaco areas via the London Broil sandwich stand having lunch with three other couples there.

Two of the couples are now looking for a Winnie on WorkHorse while the third, fullimers who originally were looking for a high end Monaco or Newmar, were shocked when they compared them to the cost to value of the Winnebago Tour 40TD on the Frieghtliner Maxxum Chassis. The Adventurer 38T would have been a close second if it had a bit more closet space.

Well now we can look foward to next years show, hopefully we will have enough time to take in two days instead of one. This year already looks like it is going to be pretty busy and hectic.

Keep it safe.

Wrong gentleman, the one I saw had black hair.

Maybe next year, and I would also like to watch Mike turn that rock into something

Could have been me. More pepper than salt and from a distance looks more like highlights then gray.

Anyways my gang enjoyed the show and my wife and I are appreciating our old 35U more and more.

Someday we will get to go to the show and have a day for just ourselves and what we want to see. But then again you can't invest too heavily in your good friends.

Take care,

Ron,

Thanks for the pictures of the Workhorse display area.

If you are available perhaps you would like to be the "official photographer" for the Workhorse Chassis Motorhome Club's Rally this October in Myrtle Beach!

Driver,

You're welcome but I don't think you would want me as the photographer, my signs come out backwards
