And just can't help myself. Yesterday Cindy and I put down a deposit on that 1998 2 slide at Motorhomes of Texas.
We'll trade in our '93 so that will make the transition much easier. They will be putting on new tires today or tomorrow and fixing a few minor things. So hopefully tomorrow or Friday we can move in.

Congratulations Forest, Its a beautiful coach, always fun getting something new to mess with. Can the 365s be put on the front without any modification? A friend of mine put them on his 98' and I think they mounted righto on.

Thanks everyone, yes we're pretty excited. Tires should be in tomorrow sometime. Seems the rear tires are hard to find right now. Just brought over the Dish receiver so they can re-program the sat. dish and get that ready.
Picked up a few storage containers, just had wine and cheese and talking about moving in. Kind of neat really since whenever we bought a new house we always wondered how the neighbors would be. Now it doesn't really matter since we will be moving around. We will be showing it off in Spearfish this summer so if you haven't made plans yet you better hurry!
Thanks Chester your advice did help and made us feel better about buying from MOT.
I called Newell yesterday morning and spoke with Tommy about coach #486. He pulled the service records and went over them with me. Didn't find any major problems or recurring problems so it sounds good. It's so nice to be able to call the factory for this information.
Now we just have to fill in the time until we can move in. They want us to spend the night at their lot in case there is a problem they need to fix before we leave.
