Checking in from the land of ten thousand mosquito's!

Howdy from Minnesota!

Noob on this forum, new owner, well I've had it a year now but that's new to me. I worked in the industry for 25 years, never thought I would get an RV and then the toy hauler craze hit. I am an avid motorcyclist. In the summer my RV is a bike with a tent strapped on the back.

In late 2015 I was presented an early retirement offer I could not pass up. That started a frantic search for a different truck (Capable of pulling a 5th wheel) and a suitable toy hauler.

The end result was a 2012 Silverado 3500 HD crew cab single tire. Followed by a 2007 McKenzie Dune Chaser (Monaco brand at the time of mfr).

The rig facilitates motorcycling in the winter, it is an escape pod!

Welcome from another MN resident, although we full time and don't spend a lot of time in MN. We are lucky however, as there are no mosquito's where our stick home is. Enjoy the toy hauler and motorcycling.
