Just got back from the PDI at Beaudry RV in Tucson; everything went great, and I gained an extra 1000lbs of CCC: the sticker states a 16,000lb rating instead of 15,000lbs.

Alright Aaron!!

Looks great! But where's the pic of the Poop-Eatin' Owners? We've seen a LE before!

And Im glad you showed the CCC sticker- it brings up an entirely different subject- YOU SHOW A GVWR OF 16,000! I suspect it's because of your AZ delivery- here in CA you'd have to have a Commericial License to drive that rig! My SLC is only rated @ 15,000 because of that.

Good job...now tell us where the Shakedown cruise is going to be! (Do I remember that you said the Cinders?).

Sean

Mike:

You'll have to change your zip code to 85929...it's an AZ thing. But with all the crazt stuff going on here in Kal-ee-for-Nia, I'd be more than happy to choose Lakeside, AZ as my landing spot- can I join you?

I see a shorter poop tube in your future
Have you started peeling the decals from your
windows yet

Wow Howie...WHAT crystal ball do you have that predicts poop tube length?! And talkin' 'bout getting right down to it...maybe he likes his length!

Now FD-you're pouting. But you'll just have to take your hanky to AZ I'm telling ya!

Oh...Aaron...if you're thinking of getting sticker-removal happy, DON'T take the GVWR sticker on the front left side...it'll start voiding your warranty- and it tells you that as you peel. And speaking of peeling, Howie- I haven't peeled my winder stickers either...just can't bring myself to do it. Heck...don't spend that much time inside anyway. But I do wish they were transluscent.

I haven't taken the window stickers off...the wife thinks they look good and wants to see if it will bother us.

Our shake down cruise will be at the Cinders on Labor Day weekend. Unfortunately we have something going on every weekend until then...

Sean, I am glad you told me not to take that sticker off, I did not realize how important that sticker is.

Today will be a fun filled day at Target and Campers World!

I also need to get the electrical tape and some wire (maybe I'll use big speaker wire) and set up some shore power at the house (j/k'ing about the speaker wire...hehe, I got electricials that will do the work for me).

...and the tires are D rated, not E...so I don't know where WW came up with the extra 1k, but whose complaining, NOT ME!

*I'll work in my ugly mug on the next set of pict's...

Very good Aaron! That good looking LE is just a base ticket item...plenty of shopping to do to outfit it- no doubt.

And I was serious about that 16k GVWR...it really think it is an AZ thing, or because of that, Mark has decided to up the GVWRs, because even with Load D's, your rear axles can GVWR-out @ 15,240#- not counting pin weight (axles are actually 18,000#). So even the 16k is understated by the design.

You have a fun day, ya hear?

Sean
