I finally decided to register and ask questions. We did tent camping in our younger years and then moved to a Starcraft pop-up for years. We had gotten out of camping due to my wife's health but I kept checking RVs all along. Her health is well enough that we are considering a class A for full time RVing.

We started to look over two (2) years ago and after driving out to California from Florida on I-10 and I-8 we have really become serious. We are going to look at one we really like when we get home in a few weeks.

I've printed a lot of the check lists for looking and buying but have to admit to still being very nervous about making the leap. We want to do older used to try it prior to buying anything newer to see if we really like the lifestyle.

I like the site and especially the search feature it enables you to narrow your lists to have quicker access to what you see.

The knowledge of the people that participate really amazes me and I am really appreciating the assistance they are giving me on my posts.

Has anyone sucessfully removed them and how did you do it? Should I contact Fleetwood to see what lurks beneath? Thanks.

Welcome, you can allways ask SarahW for decorating advice !

Howdy and welcome aboard. Glad you finally decided to join us. Take your time looking at some rigs. Being nervous is nothing new when looking at these. If you don't feel comfortable inspecting it yourself, you can always hire a service to do that. Good luck and hope all works out.

Hey Byron,
Welcome.....you have come to the right place to ask questions as there are some very friendly and helpful RVers here with alot of knowledge. I on the other hand am still in the asking questions mode as well. Good luck with your future purchase.
