Looks like a lot of fun in a small package! Congratulations.
I do suggest a local shakedown short trip before you head out for your long trip.

Ok, I had to ask... you mentioned a 14.1 I sure hope you meant 24.1 at 14.1 you would be shorter than my Pick up Truck! :-) Have fun!

We looked at them last year @ our MH show. I loved it but the other 1/2 didn't
I really liked the huge windshield but would hate to have to replace it...
I agree with the other poster about a short shakedown trip first.I drove mine around almost daily for 2 weeks before we did a short 500 miler.
Enjoy it and have a safe trip south.

Very nice. Please post your experiences with it, as my wife and I are considering one of them.

From NJ to Florida, almost all was excellent. The house batteries ran very low (we had tank heaters and furnace running) but otherwise no real problems. House batteries were a little low (poor pdi by CW?) Will monitor and let you know. Water pump runs but does not pump water. Artis says they will warranty so I might do an r & r.

Drives very easily, only complaint is lack of lighting on hvac controls. Heavy rain last night and we returned to the park and I had NO trouble backing in using the bu camera.

Will keep posting

I would hate to be the one to have clean love bugs off that windshield.

Not sure if either of us would or could adapt to a single sink in the kitchen.
