Hello from Northern Kentucky
Had a pop-up for about 10 years when the kids were young. Hit all 48 states with that. Now that I'm getting close to retirement, wanted to start camping again, but not in a pop-up. Decided on a 5th wheel.
Recently purchased a new 2016 Alpine 3600RS. Also ordered a truck, a 2017 F-350 diesel dually. Once the truck comes in, can go pick up the Alpine, hopefully by the end of May.
Joining to gain knowledge about traveling with a 5th wheel.
Thanks,
Bruce

Welcome to the forum from Southern MD. I test drove a 2017 F350 CC DRW and loved it. Ended up buying a newer used 2016. Alpine are nice rigs too. Enjoy and make sure you post pictures when you get everything.

Big guy, you and Momma are about to find out that "retirement actually IS all it's cracked up to be!" Nice rig, and welcome to the forum.
