We Did It!!!

Postby carold » Tue Oct 07, 2008 2:27 pm

Unless something goes wrong, we are picking up our 09 36ft Class A Fleetwood Bounder (35E) on Saturday. This was not an easy decision considering the economy, but my DH was ready to move into a bigger MH, we've put a lot of miles on this one and we will probably full time for a least 2 more years. We had our bottom line and went looking. Found this with a bath and 1/2, double refrig, w/d(which I didn't really care about), couch/recliner/bed, dinette and lots of storage and a super big shower. Only negative is the carpet, but at least we walk onto vinyl. Because it's gas, the slide is 25" instead of the typical 30" with a diesel, but it's a little bit longer because the refrig is on the slide side. Will post pictures later. Karen, wish I could send you my cushions. :cry: carold

Congrats, Carol. There are days I'd like a w/d, but doubt I'll ever get a rig big enough that I'd want to give up storage space for it. You never know tho - someday I might decide to join those of you with the big rigs :)

I, too, look forward to pics - inside and out, of course (we sure are nosy, aren't we?)

Wow, that was quick! Congrats! May you enjoy many happy, safe days in it.
I just saw a used Class B on Craig's list. It has a great price on it, but alas, my fixed income is taking a beating and going into debt would be foolish for me. I'm happy you were able to work thru it. Enjoy!!

Hooray Carold!! I like those new Bounders, our friend Jerry Ray has one and the bathroom shower is HUGE! Jerry is a tall guy and he says he loves it!
