After searching, for two years for out dream RV and truck, two weeks ago we purchased our truck and 5 days ago our beautiful Bighorn 5th wheel. Also, I retired 10 days ago making it quite a memorable couple of weeks.
Debbie, my amazing, gorgeous wife of 34 years, Ruby our miniature Blue Heeler and myself have traveled the western states looking at every make and model known to man. We thought we knew what wanted until we walked into our first Bighorn. Being told that I am a bit of a anal perfectionist, I was amazed at the quality workmanship with attention to detail that made it hard for me to pick anything apart. While traveling to Portland Or, I was able to crawl under the floor of a 3585rl while the basement cargo walls were removed. After inspecting all the units, fittings, connectors that most folks never see, I went up into the unit to express my amazement to my wife when before I could get a word out she looked at me with a look that stopped me in my tracks and said, "This is what I want". Needless to say, the search was over. We ordered and picked it up 5 days ago.
Towed it home on a two day 370 mile stress free trip. Had the Duratain protectant done in my shop and purchased the Easy Care extended warranty. Can't wait to get on the road exploring, but I made a promise to get the yard and landscaping done before considering any trips.
We are looking forward to exploring North America and meeting our RV family. Thanks to all that will further educate us through this amazing forum.
Kip, Debbie, and Ruby Marie our perfect travel companion.
