Ordered truck. Taking tours!

Ordered my new truck a few days ago. Chevy Silverado High Country 3500hd 4x4 diesel standard bed. Taking tours of Jayco and Grand Design on Wed. Can't wait to look at all the floor plans and to decide which 5th wheel!

Congratulations on the new TV! I had to laugh when I saw this as we ordered a Ram 2500 last weekend and were looking at 5th wheels this weekend. Found one we really liked, but haven't decided yet whether or not we're going to pull the trigger

robkelly: What's not to like about the 29REKS? Loved the layout but I shied away from it because it was a little much for the truck I had at the time. I have since replaced my truck - long term goal is go to a bigger TT or 5er.
BTW it only added about $1200 to go to 3500 on my truck and lots more payload. To me, diesel eats up too much of 2500 payload.

We love our 29REKS, just a little concerned about keeping it long term as it's a light weight. We're in a win-win situation though as if we can't make the finances work we stick with what we have.

The Eagle 323LKTS. Very similar to the floor plan we currently have, just with more space.

Haha. It's contagious I believe! I upgraded my truck from a 1500 Silverado to a 2500HD Duramax in June. Travelled to Maine pulling our V Nose TT like it wasn't even behind us.

Placed our order for a new North Point the week we returned!!!
