Nice. I see you didn't get the microwave. We also left it off our build sheet. I was hoping they would have had the cabinet door hinges on the side instead of the top, especially for my husband who is taller than me, it would be easier to see what is inside. I wonder if I ask them to have the hinges on the side if they would do that?

I didn't talk to them about the cabinets so that is the stock way they do it. I like the top hinge but then I am 5.7" (short) and my wife is a little shorter so I am delighted with it.
Since you have a 5.0 TA on order note that I swapped the stove and sink location, the window follows the sink aft and they used a much smaller window than is standard on the 5.0 TA. Also, the outside passenger side shower is moved farther aft than it would be without the swap.

No, but I really can't leave earlier due to a July 4th commitment. I am going to the DMV tomorrow to see about getting a Temp Tag so I'll let you know how it goes.

Yes, I want to know too if you can get temporary tags. We should be picking our 19 up in the first part of November and I'm starting to think about licensing and all that. Keep us posted!

Sure are. The trucking company they use is cool - driver sent it after he texted me with the status.
The 17 is en route to VA.

That must be something for people to see on the road. I surely would love to see that!
