First week on the road

Been out a week and having too much fun. Tucson to Las Vegas to Hathorne(NV) to Lassen National Park. On to Burney Falls SP - 126' waterfall. Now at our friends 6 acres in the mountains above Nevada City. Full hookups with a view that won'quit. Pics to follow, lots to see, even more to love!

The new rig is running great, 10 mpg with the cruise control at 60. The weather has been great and we have managed to dodge all of the smoke from Yosemite fire(drove through it for about 2 hours).
  • Love the Nevada City area...they stayed small using Grass Valley as an example of what NOT to do! Love the smell and the 49er area is beautiful!!

    How quiet is the ride?

    Jealous of all that 'first time burst of MH fun experience' You always remember your first time :)


    This my first long trip in the Nexus. Very pleased with the ride and handling. It really scoots up those long steep grades and coming down I just engage the Tow Haul and cruise down the hill, no need for any brake pedal and we burn zero fuel. Getting pics posted from my Tablet may be tough but will be worth doing.
