Ok... have us concerned now. We "were" toying with the idea of CD'A after the 7th. We will be in TwinFalls the week before.

Does the RV tour plan on being in CD'A for the entire time? Will that impact finding a place there?

Hi: I have a 2014 Seneca 37RB and I absolutely love my unit. I have made numerous upgrades (wooden dash board, train air horns, installed Freightliner Century mirrors instead of the M2 mirrors, aux light in front, lift rods for the bed in back, thermostatic valve for shower, TPMS, etc). One issue I had was with ALL of the cabinet doors splitting open (Jayco did not cover the cost to repair each one).

I tow a 20 foot enclosed trailer and I put a 2012 Scion IQ, a 2017 Harley Davidson Road Glide, two mopeds, two kayaks, barbecue grille and bicycles in it. I have no problem towing this trailer, which I had wrapped to match the coach. Good luck with your purchase. I am in NY. I bought an RV shelter to store my unit in during the winter. I routinely scrape the frame and respray it with bed liner. I do my own servicing (oil and fuel filter changes, generator servicing, AC servicing). These units are so easy to work on.

I had screws pop up in the floor and had to replace the vinyl tiles. Easy repair. I changed all my TV's to 40 inch. The outside entertainment unit was upgraded with some plywood that sealed that gapping hole and I included a swivel TV bracket so I got a larger tv in that space. I wash and wax it pretty much on a weekly basis. I run 100 pounds in each tire and have no problem with them.

If your ever in NY, look me up.

Not sure how I missed your post but thank you for the reply! Love the sound of some of your upgrades! Especially the air horns, er, train horns! Nice!

We arrive in Coeur d'Alene on July 7 from Kelispel MT where we are spending July 4 with friends. We want to go into Glacier NP, the big question being when the Road to the Sun opens.
The tour group starts July 9 and leaves the morning of July 11 for Fort Steel BC.
The tour group is staying at Blackwell Island RV park.
If you can make it we would like to exchange notes on Senecas.

I know this is an old thread, but I live in Cave Creek and have a 2016 37FS. I tow a Jeep Wrangler with a Blue Ox.

Hello! We are practically neighbors then. I’m about 10 min. West of you off Carefree Hwy. I actually purchased a ‘14 FS so would be great to have a local contact to swap notes with! Happy to chat as well. I’ll shoot you my cell via PM.
