She's HOME!!

Picked up Millie last night. Long day of paperwork, set up, last minute add ons, and then the Crossing Over routine of our stuff. Had a great delivery driver that towed our Beast-ette with a F-450 and he even let me sit in it. Oh YES!! Even though it was around 6;30-7pm and dark when we got her home, he stayed around for about an hour and help us get all set up with the Leveling, and watched me as I set up the Power Cord, the Slinky Stinks and assisted me in setting up my heated hose with the correct size ext cord to the power box, I know, I know, its all simple and everything, but this is entirely new to me. I wanted to do it and know I was doing it all correctly and he was very nice and willing to stay a while with me. He got a good tip from us for his troubles.

Pictures of the outside and I apologize if they are huge. Took them all straight to the phone and put them up here. I will also have pics of the storage and inside tomorrow. Spent all day setting the Kitchen and Living Room up like we like it. DW had to work this morning, so, she had a nice surprise waiting for her when she got home. Everything, put up and away and all she had to do was to relax and enjoy the Black Cherry Vodka/Tonic I had chilling for her. Happy Hour still going on.

















She was a joy to sleep in too. No more of my feet a foot and a half of the end of the bed.

Pic of the F-450 the driver had. 2019 King Ranch. 4015 miles on it and he'd sell it to me for $80k. Nahhhh.





Thanks to all of you for the RV Education you have presented to me and all the help. It has been very valuable to both of us. So, a BIG thank you to the Keystone Gurus here.

Thank you, guys! We are so happy with it. Its beautiful and very comfortable to live in.

For the Techies, I took a shot of my 4-6v GC battery set up. Oh, how I wish I could have gotten the Onan Gen. Later down the road, we will. And the Splendide Washer/Dryer set up. Right now, I am focused on the 450. Things are looking up!

Surprised they didn't come enclosed in a vented battery box of some sort, thought is was required actually.
Very clean setup, but I'd prefer them enclosed as obviously they're lead acid.

I think he did mention there is a vented area towards the bottom/back and to the left side where the Onan would go. I'm happy with it. I was VERY inquisitive throughout the tutorial, probably keeping him longer than usual, but he was great about it.

She certainly is! We are thoroughly enjoying her. She is so pretty on the inside, we have to make ourselves go outside!

You can swap those batteries out for 4 lithium batteries and then you won't have to worry about venting, Plus they are a lot lighter. Just saying.............
