Our new rig on it's maiden voyage. The day we picked it up we camped outside of La Grande, Or at Red Bridge State Park. Great campground and yes, everything in our new 996 worked flawlessly! This floor plan is perfect for us and actually has bigger beds than the A.C.E we rented while making a decision which rig to purchase. A factory tour at Northwood was the icing on the cake and gave us even more confidence that we chose the right manufacturer. We're getting over 12.5 mpg loaded climbing up to 7,000 ft and running along at 70 on the Interstate. Can't ask for much more than that, especially since the A.C.E. 30-1 we rented got 6.8 mpg on gas. We've now got 4 nights under our belt in our 996 and have more planned soon.
