Welcome to the JOF.

I grew up in Red Wing. Rochester High schools were our High School sports rivals. I remember taking bus trips down there for regional basketball playoffs.

Welcome. A John Marshall grad here, married to a Mayo grad. Still a sore subject as to which High School was best after 40 yrs of marriage....

Nope, we stay camping here in da Upper Penninsula. Can't beat what we have here, all the places within a couple hours of the house. We're still exploring & finding amazing places. Pretty much why we stayed here da U.P. when I retired from the Air Force.

Congrats, I'm sure you're going to love it. We ordered the same rig last year so it's a 2017. Ordered it on June 2nd but it took 16 weeks to the day for delivery. As a result, we only got out in it once but we had no issues including the fact that it was cold whether camping. Hope your delivery is as promised and good luck!

Yep.
Works good for use. But I don't really care for the folding mount arm. I better like the solid square mount bar we had on our old 2013 Eagle TT.

Yes, ours came with it but I have read reviews that it isn't that great and rusts out before too long. So I don't know how much it is worth it. There are lots of posts here on converting other grills over and using them instead. I could see where the style that can be converted from a grill to a griddle would be nice.

We just got our camper last month and have only camped in the driveway one night. The camp grounds are starting to open up but we have something going on every weekend for the next few weeks so not sure when we will get out for the first time.

We have & use a tripod. Ours does take out most of the wobble, but not all. We bought x chocks to try out this year to see if that helps.
