love this site
HI we are not new to camping have been watching this site for awhile and really enjoy it my wife Junelle and I started camping in a pop up 13 years ago. We have four children. We have had 3 travel trailers and just sold our 2012 flagstaff 831 bhds last fall and I bought our first motorhome a 2005 Newmar Mountain aire 4304 dp. The Newmar had an engine fire and i've spent all winter getting this bad boy ready to go, so come on nice weather!

The project has went really well I replaced the rear chassis wiring harness, and all electrical on the motor, as well as belts hoses, fuel lines and valve cover seals, batteries. I also had to rebuild the closet and replace bedroom carpet. this thing had a fire that started in the battery box it didn't burn very long or get real hot as there was no smoke damage in the unit. I replaced the rear cap and repaired a little front bumper damage that the tow driver did. but every thing works and it runs and drives great. Right now its getting the sidewalls replaced and repainted should get it back next week cant wait. Id love to make it to the rally but my April schedule is crazy so we will keep watching for the next one
