Hello all. I came across this site a few weeks ago and thought it was about time to stop being a "lurker".
In october we purchased a new-2-us 2004 journey 34H

. This is our first MH but have been trailering for over 15 years. It has the 350 Cat 7 and almost every option that was available back then.
While camping is not new to us, the MH is really different. I really appreciate all the information I have picked up regarding the Cat 7 so far, i have never owned a diesel anything before. I feel so much like a sponge trying to soak up all the information I can.
We have been out a couple of times before the snow hit and are really looking forward to getting out again.
We will be towing our Goldwing for now, but plan on getting a tow dolly in the near future (more investigating coming up).
We are still quite a few years from retireing, but plan on getting a lot of use from it. With only 29,000 miles on it since 2004, I think we will get more use then the previous owner.
Once again, hello to all, and i look forward the experience on the road and on this forum.

Welcome to IRV2. This is a great place to learn everything about a MH. I do a lot of work myself and what I can't do, I take to General Sales in Bloomsburg. Harry has a nice shop and great (Cat, Cummins and Detroit) mechanics. Good luck traveling.

Thanks for all the 'welcomes'.
Should have added that we are in the Wilkes-Barre (scranton) area.
