Konnichiwa from Japan!
My name is Valerie! My husband Randy is an active duty Marine and we are currently stationed in Iwakuni, Japan. He has decided it’s time to retire after 25 years of service and we are in the process of purchasing our first 5th wheel! We decided on the Cougar 368mbi since we still have one child at home. Our plan is to have it ready when we hit the good ole USA and spend some time traveling before he starts his second career! So far, we have learned from this forum that the f250 we were about to purchase was not smart and you all saved us some heartache as money has already been laid down on the fifth wheel! I’m looking forward to all we will learn from you all!

I share the same sentiment as already stated. Thank you for your families sacrifice and service for this country. If not for you folks we may not have our toys and the freedom to enjoy them. Welcome to the forum from SE Texas. Keep us posted.
