New Jayco Owner
Hi, all!
Today we bought a Pinnacle 36RSQS fifth-wheel (in a blowing snow storm - almost white-out conditions). Truefully a beautiful 5'ver. We can't wait to pick it up.
Where not new to the RV world, we started out camping right after we were married in a used Scamper pop-up we bought from my wife's parents. Through the years we grew through another pop-up, a 19' travel trailer, a 28' single slide TT, and now trading in a 31' 2011 Windjammer 3001W.
Starting in July we're going full-timing. I was just notified I'm getting RIF'ed the end of June, we're going to give up the sticks and bricks, and go out on the world. The first couple of years we may stay in this area as the company I'm at wants me possible work on a contract basis for a while - we'll see about that in a few months.
Looking forward to helping and getting help from all you fellow Jayco owners out there!
Rick
