So, there have been several updates and changes...
I abandoned the idea of towing 4-down. Managed to sell the tow bar and cabling on Ebay and didn't lose any money.
Bought a Tow Master tow dolly w electric brakes. Also bought a spare tire. I installed a Prodigy brake controller in the MH in 40 minutes or less (MH already was wired for it).
Now, I can tow our minivan without doing any mods to it which reduced my to-do list pretty substantially. Plus, I...

So far, I've purchased a tow bar (Blue Ox Aladdin) and a surge protector (Surge Pro 50A hard wired version).
Will be installing the Surge Pro myself since it looks pretty easy.
Looking for a good tow vehicle for our little crew which has a third row seat but is kinda old so that we don't care too much about getting it dirty and towing behind the coach.
3 months til we take off!!

Well, we made it back to RI without hitting anything solid. The first few days were right out of a reality show; drama, action, high emotions and a happy ending.
First time I drove the coach was pulling it out of the dealer's garage and the first day of driving was over 12 hours long. Oy! That's a long first day. But the thing drove great and the family didn't seem to mind the long travel day.
Everything on the coach worked great except that the wipers went on the...

After a more than a year of researching, thinking and shopping, we have picked a 2009 Newmar 4154 bunk model as our MH. We'll be setting off in February 2009 DV for a 6 month trip with our 3 youngsters for our Big Trip Around the Country - that's the way we refer to it around the house.
Now have to arrange to pick it up in Minnesota which includes getting insurance, planning to get there and then driving home through Pittsburgh so that we can visit w my folks.
