Don't think I posted in this section but have posted a few times in the National RV forum.

Last July we bought our first RV, a 96 Fleetwood Storm. 25' We have been out several times and decided we wanted something a little larger w/slide. About 4 weeks ago we found a very clean, 2002 Sea Breeze scout with super slide and fell in love with it. So MUCH more room! Only 7,400 miles on the V-10. Everything looks new. The previous owner removed the old faded decals and had new ones painted on.

This week-end, will be our first outing, and it is suppose to rain.
Still learning about how to operate things since there was no owners manual except for the chassis. Still searching but no luck so far.

Howdy Barry and welcome to the forum! Enjoy your Scout and have a fun trip. At least with the rain you'll be able to check for leaks!!

It rained a few days ago and went to check on her and could not see any signs of leaks.

See you are in Houston, was born and raised in Kerrville.

Hi Barry! Congrats on the new MH. Even in the rain, you can have a great adventure. It will get you away from the everyday routine. Safe travels.

Well the trip to the CG was fine other than a little road walk but I think the dealer had the tires to high in psi but that is another story. Dealing with that on another tread.

Got things set up and everything seem to work fine. WOW, some much more room than my previous coach!

One question I do have. I have a shut off switch by the front door and I left it on although I am hooked up the shore power, is that correct???

The past two days have been nice but tomorrow we are expecting a lot of rain, somewhere between 2-3" och. We did buy a few things for the coach so tomorrow might be a good time to install them since I don't think we will be out much.
