Hi All! We've owned an Allegro class A gasser for 5 years. Always wanted a truck conversion since I saw my first one many years ago. Figured we'd start with a class A to make sure we like having a m/h. We just bought our dream perfect coach. A '03 Freightliner fl112, cat C12 engine, Eaton 10 speed autoshift, 26' living quarters with one slide for the sofa, 40,000lb hitch to pull my enclosed car hauler with the Corvette. We're very excited!

Very nice. We have a 40' DP and an open car hauler for our C5 Vette. The trailer has a rock guard so the Vette is protected a bit. Is the Vette your daily driver or do you race and/or show it? Ours is all three...daily driver, Wife autocrosses and I show it.

Thanks everybody. Our Vette is my summer daily driver and autocross/high speed road course car. My son also has two race Vettes. Usually we put one of his Vettes in the trailer and then one of us drives mine since mine has nicer road manners. I'll probably be doing less racing and more wrenching for him this summer.
