Congratulations on your new rig. We took the plunge 3 yrs ago and are loving the lifestyle. We do find it a little challenging in some areas to find space large enough for us. It takes a considerable amount of searching and phone calls to guarantee a spot.

No doubt, a beautiful rig indeed. Just curious, what's the fuel economy on that, 5-6 mpg?

Obviously depends on terrain.... Ft Myers, FL to Arizona was 6.2MPG

Beautiful rig !!
I'm 66' just flat towing a compact car due to my motorcycle lift. Ran into a couple of neighbours in Yuma this year with a coach and single level trailer that measured out to 75', and he "say's" he just wings it. Stop's where looks good!
Congrats on the new digs !!

Thanks.... we like to make sure that we can pull in, stay hooked up with the trailer, and have room to unload. My experience is that takes a bit of planning.... not excessive, but still planning ahead since longer pull through sites for multiple weeks at a time, aren’t always available at the last minute.

Marvelous rig, congratulations! You will be turning heads everywhere, you can count on that!
Question, do you ever have to unhook and move the trailer around at campsite etc? If so, how do you do it? I've always wondered about that, as I'm thinking of a stacker in the future.
Also, you have to choose routes carefully I assume with the trailer height?
Thanks and safe travels, it's just gorgeous.

Thanks. We have had to unhook and move our last trailer a few times. In our last 7 1/2 month trip around the country, we only had to unhook 3 times. Twice we called ahead and the campsite had someone help us using campsite equipment. Once, we quickly made friends with someone that had a pickup truck that could move the unloaded trailer. Our next purchase for the trailer will be a trailer mover with enough capacity to move the trailer without the car..... As far as trailer height, we always check for low clearance bridges on our route. When it’s loaded with the car and motorcycle the trailer is the same height as the coach.... so if my planning was good for the coach, it’s good for the trailer.
