The Build Of Our Allegro Bus 45LP with Time Lapse Videos

We arrived on Sunday January 26th into Camp Red Bay to be here for the entire build process for our 45LP Bus.

It hits Station 1 Friday, the 31st, but we came in early so we can take some meetings and be sure the changes we were looking for were handled. They were. We also, of course, made a few other changes after speaking with some others and seeing some things on the line. So it is good to come in early if you are able to be on hand for the build of you new motor home.

All in all, this is an exciting time for sure.

We will be posting about the complete experience on our travel blog along with time lapse videos. (Seeing we have 2K readers, we of course want to publish it on our blog, but we surely will take questions and try to help here about the experience or the coach.) We will keep this first post updated with the coming links of the build. (That is unless the editing part times out does not allow editing.)

This should be fun.

Congrats on the new Bus. We watched our '13 built in Dec 2012. A great experience. If you want to see it ALL be prepared for some long days. We even got to see them cut our floor tiles on the water table over in Belmont. By the way if you want to see them weld the chassis, get to the welding shop NOW. We were there the whole time it was in there too, (regardless of what the signs say).

Good luck again.

I'm 99% unless another force in the family opposes it within the next 2-5 years (knocking on wood the economy keeps up) that i'll be getting to watch a Tiffin be born. Of course plans may change. Pretty much picked out three variations of what I want (depending on the financial status at the time). It's wonderful to share in your joy as it only adds fuel to the desire to have a Tiffin (Allegro/RED/Phaeton if the powers that be are good) allows it to happen. I'm not a subscriber to your blog (or anyones I read as I go) but your experience (and I gather like many) seems to be wonderful so far. I bet you can't wait for the paint to cure! Everyone seems to point that this is a great experience and you're doing your part to maintain it. I'm waiting for day 3...

The time-lapse is really amazing! A great blog, a real intimate look at everything. We toured the factory last year and we're thinking that we may be doing this too in a couple of years, so we are following closely. Thanks for sharing your experiences!

Best of luck and happiness to you both,
James
