Newbie from New Brunswick,CA

We have a 2009 Dutchmen Northshore XRV 33 5th Wheel Toyhauler and a 2000 Ford F350 DRW Lariat 4 x 4 7.3L Diesel we just purchased a couple of months ago.

So far we are enjoying the experience and looking forward to retirement in about 5 years. I show and hunt with my Labs and want to get into full time retriever field training when I retire. We plan to stay in Canada for the Spring, Summer and Fall, we have 165 acre farm here in New Brunswick and Winter in the southwest.

Regards, Roger

Hi Roger, Had the same truck and loved it. Just keep a eye on the oil pan, had to replace mine due to rust. On another problem I had with both superdutys was the brake line in the rear frame rail drivers side behind the tank rusting out and losing brakes. But loved the truck. It'll tow a house. Safe and trouble free travels.

Thanks

Thank you all for the kind words of welcome and Bruce C thanks for the tips on the truck. The truck is actually from Florida, a guy used it to haul a boat up here to NB last year and I bought it off him, there's almost no rust and I had it rustproofed as a precaution.

Regards, Roger
