Gone And Done It Again

Traded the Redhawk 24B in for a new Greyhawk 29MV. We thought we would like the smaller one but just wasn't comfortable enough. First night in the new one. Having a little extra room is really nice.

That's a beaut! The 29MV seems to be a popular model. Best of luck with the new unit.

That's a great looking rig. Did you put blinders on it, so it doesn't leave without you???

This is the way we felt leaving our Airstream Bambi for the 24B. Have decided to stay the course with the 24B to make parking manageable for me.

Congrats on the new 29.

Yes going to miss the easy parking. But it does drive a lot better in my opinion.

Nice rig! We have a 2018 Greyhawk 29 mv and love the floor plan.It looks like you have the 2 A/C model. That will be crucial if you're planning trips to the deep south or SW parks. I installed a second A/C in mine. I have done a lot of upgrades and repairs in the 2 plus years we have it. The most important are the handling upgrades. I put the black sumo springs on the front, I also installed the Hellwig sway bar and the roadmaster steering stabilizer. In my opinion you need them all. They improve the ride noticeably. If you have'nt done so also adjust the hellwig helper springs, also a ride improvement.

X2 not that expensive if you can do the work yourself.


Enjoy the journey
