Smile New Purchase(s)

Hey everyone!

Bought a new (to me) Truck in December. 2003 F350 SRW 6.0 PSD Wife asks why such a big truck? I respond that it was time for a step up from the Ford Ranger I had (little 4 cyl 5 spd) it could barely pull a utility trailer. Anyrate love the new truck.

Found a deal on a 2008 31.5FBHS 5er end of last month, and talked her into it. So next thing i know we have a truck and 5er and are itching to go out on some trips. I have camped with my parents all through my youth. They have a 1997 Eagle 5er, she on the other hand is brand new to camping.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your 'new to you' truck and camper. From a Ranger to a F350 is quite a leap. Now get out there and do some camping!
