Hi, I am a new member to the forums. I live in Lomita, California. We just purchased a 2000 Bounder 32H (Ford Chassis). It is our first motorhome purchase. I have had a small motorhome I inherited from my father in the past, (a class C turtle top) and grew up with the RV's that my father had. His biggest was a Revcon.

So we are just setting it up for our first outing on Memorial day. I need to purchase all the required accessories, dump hoses, potable hoses, etc. So any advice is welcome. I will be signing up for Coach-Net for road service.

Best Regards,

Kirk

Hi, we've only owned our motorhome for about 2 weeks and were new to it also. Have a 99 Fleetwood Southwind, almost identical to yours only a 36.6'. We live in the mountains East of Bakersfield and there is no RV supplier near us. I went to TrueValue Hardware and found everything I needed. We do have a nice RV park here if you ever want to come to the mountains for a get away.

Hope you are not sending them to the gloderport, it's noisy, Indian Hill is quiet!
