Hi all..
i have been lurking here on and off for a year or so and 6 months ago finally found a used class b that fit our needs ( and was affordable)

its a 94 pleasure way stw In pretty good shape over all, just needing cleaned and the usual care for a 20 year old rv.

The girlfriend and i have just been taking short over night trips here and there as time alowed, usually less than 200 miles.
Also getting to know the hows and whys of a class b, or any rv for that matter.thanks to the amazing help from fourms like this

Last week we had the chance to really test our new rig.

5 days,2258 miles towing an empty 5x8 uhaul from tucson az to jackson wy and very full back to move her adult daughter and 5 cats back to us.

I have to say our pleasureway performed outstanding. We slept in her every night and cooked a bit on the road. The Rain, snow,below freezing temps, high winds, wild animals, horrible traffic in saltlake and beautiful countryside Made for an unforgettable trip.

She is definatly due some pampering after getting us back safe and sound...i love this thing!! And average 14 mpg for the trip

thanks to everyone here for your knowledge and help ( even not knowing it) in helping us decide what kind of rv we wanted and needed and all the usefull tips and tricks.

Thanks
andy

Even with all the stress of the move and
other things it was a enjoyable trip. We learned that the "white house" as we call it is rock solid, except for the wander in the wind...it has the shorter rear end and after 5 days we now have a long list of small things we need to make future trips even better.
