We have been camping since 1966. We started out in a homemade pop-up trailer with 3 children, one only 4 months old.

Since then we have never been without a camper. Presently we have an Outfitter Apex-8 truck camper on a 2002 Toyota Tundra. We also still have the '90 Coachmen class C, but the Outfitter gets the most usage.

We have driven to 49 states and all of the Canadian provinces since retiring in 1994.

Hello Magic43 and welcome aboard. How did you find this site?

I was 'Googling' to find out some information on Fleetwood RVs and hit the jackpot with this amazing forum.

Looking forward to future chats with you all!
Cheers

I saw a reference on the Outfitter Owner's forun and decided to take a peek. I generally look at RV.Net each day, so now I have another.

magic43..
Welcome to iRV2!! You will find this to be a very helpful and friendly RV forum. I do feel that this is the best RV forum on the web...with the most knowledgable group of RV owners willing to help.

It sounds like you have the experience to be able to help a lot on this site...so I certainly hope you will chime in and help some of the "Newer to RVing" members along the way along with sharing your adventures with us! (Make sure you look all over the board...there are some great categories below)

Again welcome to iRV2!

MM
