Checking in. First time with a 5th wheel. Started in my grandfathers canvas tent, water sealed with wax. Moved up to synthetic - a slid-in camper, back to tents and now a gently used (I hope) 5th wheel. I've been snooping around, thought I'd get on board. Hope to retire sooner than later.

Hey Mike-n-Teri, Glad to have you with us. We hope you enjoy this site. You'll find it very informative. I remember water sealing our tent with liquified wax, melted on a Colman stove. Remembering the pot of wax catching fire, brought some fond memories from way back when. Thanks.....Brad

Glad to have you here. you can go into your profile and add a signature file with the description of your rig and area of the country you live.

Look for rallies or campouts near you and join in. IRV2 is open to everyone, regardless of type of rig, size, age of rig or occupants.

Ken
