Two more sleeps!

Hi and hello - long time lurker of this forum and first time (almost) poster. I can't believe the wealth of information I've found on this site and it enabled us to spec out our new 17B. Picking it up in two days and can't wait!
We were able to get a 2014 demo 17B and ETI were super accommodating in adding on/modifying to our needs.
Just came back from getting the insurance (much more reasonable than I thought) and we're doing the toe tapping thing waiting until Monday.
Anyway thanks again - I'll post a pic later. Will be taking on the first brief trip in three weeks.

Cheers
Al

Al, very nice setup! I'm sure you don't need that WDH. That trailer should tow just fine behind your truck.

Sweet! You're going to have some great times in your Escape. Let the pleasure begin. Be sure to attend many rallies. You learn a lot and make some wonderful friends too.
