Mitch will be happy that I found a new hat. She said that pink one from Mexico was past ugly with dirt.

What Beth said..... :) The unit is make by Thor. They have two models Axis and Vegas that only have minor differences in the front head lights and the interior fabrics. 25.5 feet long and 8 feet wide. It works for us and some day I will even change the picture on the bottom of the forum posts....but not today! :)

Thanks Beth and Tina. Really like your MH Tina - it looks sooooo roomy. Perfect for you and your pups. If I downsize from a 35' Class A diesel something like your rig would interest me. No wonder I missed your post about it - I was selling my house and moving last summer - Big Job!!

Linda, there are several styles of smaller Class As out in the market now. Mine is a gaser, which I was more familiar with and therefore more comfortable but it was also many $$$$ less than the Winnebago Via and the Sprinter rigs. So the depth of a pocket book does come into play. I also looked at the 26ft Winnebago HE (I think?) It was also nice and roomy but with the larger rear bed and no ideal place for dog kennels it just didn't seem to fit us as well.

Nice pics Tina. Looks like your Garmin missed an update somewhere, didn't know you have one of those cars that could go in water. :lol:

The Garmin I was using in the car is the old one, at least 6 plus years old and cheap and non-upgradeable. I bought a new one coming out here on this trip that I keep in the rig. I like that it knows all the roads and reminded me when I "might" try to drive too fast through small towns on the back roads. :)

Alice, you and Maggie are welcome back anytime. Having a "spare" bed that wasn't a complete pain to set up was another one of the reasons I wanted to upgrade from my old rig. Sometimes it is nice to have quality company. :)

Beautiful pics Tina. My mom was from WA. I travelled to her hometown once, little town by name of Duvall. House no longer there of course but beautiful view of Mt. Rainer in the distance.
