Hello From The Top of Virginia

We (DW & I) are picking up our 2013 Xlite 28SGS 0n June 22nd. First 5th wheel but have been camping (off & on) since 1975. Tent Camping, 1969 Hi-Lo (lost in a flood), 1986 Pop-up, 1998 Pop-up, 2007 Pop-up, 2009 Rockwood Roo & now a 5th wheel.

First trip July 13,14,15. Short trip to get used to towing a 5th wheel.

We are planning a month long, cross country trip after Labor Day. Northern Route out to Oragon, Southern Route back to VA.

Allan

Wave as you pass though Portland! Sounds like a nice rig.
Be sure to do a through PDI, to be sure all is in order on delivery.

Hi there from Leesburg. Wow! Pop-ups to Fifth-wheel. You guys have made the transition. Happy camping anyway you look at it. I suppose one day I'll transition to a Fifth-wheel too. But not yet, we need the kid hauling capacity of our Excursion. We too are going on a Northern trip this summer. Ohio (Cedar Point), Michigan (North) and Chicago. 2 weeks is all I have so we are fitting as much as possible into that time frame. We are very much looking forward to it. Good luck with your trip out West.

Welcome from the SE part of the state. Wish I had made that decision to go straight from pop-up to a fiver! Would have saved me a ton of money!! Would love to go all the way to Oregon/Washington state! Enjoy the trip!
