Hey Johnny,
Don’t know your camping style but the wet bar, 55 inch flat screen, and fire place options are some of my favorites. And if you hunt, make sure to
get the camouflage paint job, dual heaters, and swivel office chair with Arkansas ports for 360 degree harvesting opportunities. Those outside storage hatches are great for hauling cracked corn for baiting.
When will your delivery/ pickup date be? See you at Lake Sugema and Tilliies for a shot of Crown.
Iowa Dave

Seriously in no particular order
Front Box
Manual Awning
Window and Exhaust fan in the bathroom
Surge protector
Solar panel
Dual Six volt batteries
Air Conditioning

Happy New Year
Stay in Touch
Iowa Dave

Hey Dave, leave it to a hawkeye to give me a serious answer. Got everything you listed. Arkansas ports cracked me up. Will have to look up Lake Sugema and Tillies and yes to the Crown. Drove a f150 at Van Horn in Newhall. Ended up buying one in Muscatine. All the best and Happy New Year !

Watch the weather, Lay up if you have to. Talk to drivers at truck stops and load DOT road condition report sites on your route. Keep your gas tank full. Take some RV antifreeze along and use it if you are not winterized or are using manually dumped water in the gray and black tanks. Take a torque wrench along and check the lug nuts for 95 ft lbs a couple times the first day and every morning. You can get an adequate 1/2 inch drive wrench if you don’t have one at Harbor Freight. 6 inch extension and 3/4 inch socket. You will do fine,
Especially if you don’t get in a hurry.
Easy does it.
Iowa Dave
