Hello forum members!
New to the forum but not to RVing. Started 15 years ago, been through 2 bumper pulls and on my third fifth wheel - second Cougar, a 2008 278RKS. Last one was a 2002 Cougar 244EFS. Had 7 different tow vehicles - 6 of them GM pickups. Current one is an Imperial Blue 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD LTZ extended cab "standard" (78") bed with 6.0L gas and 3.73 final gear on the 6 speed tranny. I use a Pullrite 3300 Superglide hitch.
I'm lucky that my "new" wife of 2+ years loves camping as well. We mostly have stayed in the Washington, Oregon, northern California area but are looking to range further into British Columbia and further east and south later this year. After that I would love to talk her into a 'round-the-country RV trip, but that would take some finessing to cover our duties here at home for that long!
I am an ex-mechanic and service manager as well as a 21 year veteran of Boeing IT - now retired.
Hope to see some of you in future threads!
