Greetings from Vancouver Island

Nancy and I have been owners of a small class C motorhome the past 15 years or so and we are looking at moving up to a diesel pusher in the near future. As a retired mechanic I really joined to glean additional information so we can make an informed choice on a new to us vehicle. At this time of year after a dreary winter it is nice to look forward to doing some more traveling and finding the sun. It must be out there somewhere!

Regards,

Dennis Broad

First Off

even if its just from the other side of the Beaufort Range from you.

Lots of good people and great information.

Weird weather we been getting. Sunny yesterday so I started working on a perimeter drain problem and had to dig up the line to the road. Finished today in the pouring rain and just now 20:30ish I let the Terrorist twins out for their eventing potty and its snowing. I'd like to find some sun also.

too old for all the menial labour!
