Newly emptied nest and our first rig.

Hello all,

My wife and I have a newly emptied nest. We plan to be on the road about half-time, starting in a few weeks. After months and months of detailed research, we settled on our first rig. It's a new Winnebago Navion 24J (Yes, they oddly dropped the Itasca badge on some Navion models this year, though it's effectively the same as a Winnebago View) We're taking delivery this weekend!

We're looking forward to a slower pace of life and a new community of friends.

B & L,

Welcome to the Forum! Congratulations on the new rig and on a slower life. You will find this a great place to learn what you need to know. Ask away and post a picture of your rig when you get it.

Stay safe!

Hi, Newly empty nesters...We too just purchased new we ordered the 2017 24V Itasca Navion last week...the guy said his computer is set up for it? Whatever. We take delivery in August... reading, and reading what we need to know. I wish it had those levelers installed like the bigger units. Also, we drove it on a real windy day and looks like we could use some sway bars but your talking an additional $6K added for parts and install. We are in MA
