Tony, glad to have you here on iRV2. Ask away as questions and answers are free.
I have one request. Please turn off the CAPS lock key. Internet protocol likens this to shouting and is considered rude. You can use all caps to highlight an item ot make a point. Also, the Community Rules do not allow the use of all CAPS.
Posting standards:
Forum members may use standard fonts available on the forum. The standard font size is 2. The use of bold, large or colored fonts should be used sparingly. Posts containing inappropriate formatting will be removed or modified at our discretion; e.g. all caps or excessive color.
Community Rules can be found HERE
Agin, glad you are here.
Ken

Welcome TonyR.....while I am fairly new to RVing myself, I have learned a great deal from these boards.
Best of luck with your new RV and Happy Traveling!
BTW..after never "camping " before, we got a MH July 2007, and just came back from our 19th trip. We learn something everytime we go!

Tony, do you want the title to identify you as a "Damon Owners Forum Member"?
We have a few folks over in Louisana that we let on here. Don W5IT, is near Baton Rouge and is also a Moderaotr and fellow ham radio operator. He occassionally sneaks over the border into Texas and makes it to a Texas Boomer Rally. Love to have you make it to one.
Ken

Sounds better than "junior member" even if I am a newby.
Thanks Ken.

In the mean time you can add a signature file with the information it if. go to the <User CP> and select Edit Signature. You are limited to 3 lines in the sig file. See whay some of the other have in their sig files.

Hey Tony R.,
Welcome aboard! I'm a new guy also when it comes to a motorhome. I'm on my first. I've had a couple of travel trailers. So we'll have to rely on everyone else's expertease.

Welcome Cowboy. Your new motorcoach is a real nice rig & you can be sure you'll have many fun trips in it. I'm sorta in the same situation as you are. Many years ago we camped in a 23' travel trailer with the kids. The motorhome has been a dream for 30+ years. We finally made the decision last Sept. & here we are starting to enjoy the retirement years. As for this site-- the nicest & friendliest & knowledgeable folks are here to help whenever they can, which is a big help to those of us that are newby's.
