Hello all. I didn't see a welcome page so I thought I'd say high here. Great forum here with a lot of info. We are new owners of a 2014 Thor Four Winds SK 35. Powered by a Super Duty 6.7 Ford F-550. We are looking forward to better weather so we can get started traveling and seeing the sites. Hope to see you out there. :B

Hello everyone. I want to thank you all for your kind comments and great suggestions. This being our first MH has caused me to to do ALOT of studying on this forum and receiving all the information I've needed to this point. So a BIG thanks to everyone that contributes here. I hope to be able to help out in some way and know that I've helped somehow. I've got our MH out of cave storage and kinda doing a shake down at home. (I'll wait to hook up water for another week or so). The only issue I've noticed (minor one) is that my TV antenna will not rotate 360 degrees. So up on the roof I go. Found out that there is not enough coax loop to allow the full 360 degree turn. If the MH was out of warranty I'd repair it myself but I think I'll let the dealer make the repair. I also installed the TST 507 tire pressure monitoring system. Seem's to read within 1-2 psi below what I know the actual tire pressures are. I also gave the 6K genny a good 4 hour exercise with around a 60 percent load. The weather is real nice today so I figured while I was on the roof looking at the antenna issue, I'd do that spring washing of the roof with some UV protection as well. Well that led to a whole washing of the MH. Good to go until late fall. So, so far all is good and can't wait to get out there for real. Thanks again everyone.

As most on here will tell you, most good experiences are the result of previous bad experiences. Somebody on this forum has already made any mistake you can think of and posted about it. Hiding your identity behind a made up user name offers you the chance to contribute your own mistakes without embarrassment. That's how we all learned.
Now, get out there and embarrass yourself and tell us about it. Maybe you'll make a Hall of Fame mistake that nobody has made before, but I doubt it. 🙂
Retired and visiting as much of this beautiful country as I can.

While at Lazydays in Seffner, Fla. there were two with the F550
both were Black exterior.

Very impressive..

That was the first F550 class C I had ever seen

I know you will have a great time in that huge Class C.

Congratulations!!

Practice with the awning extending it and then retracting it until you can do it in the dark, also practice mentally what the procedure is when "hooking up"
1. Turn and make shure pedestall brakers are off, check for volage and polariry with a probe from Home Depot or Lowes, by turning brakers on, when all is ok turn brakers off and then plug electric conector to the pedestal and turn brakers on.

2. Turn water faucet on and see when clear water runs, then hook water hose with a pressure regulator and or filter.

3. Then hook your sewer hose to the drain system.

Same order when leaving the cap ground and if you use the roof anttena make shure that you return it to its original flat position.

You are giong to find that the more you travell in your rig the more you like it, it beats all hotels and restaurants.

Welcome to the RVing world.

We have a shake down scheduled, right next to our dealer just in case. Hopefully we won't have a need to call them. There are in fact a lot of "new" things to get familiar with. We are ready to get started though. :B

Welcome aboard. While mine's a lot shorter at 19', I'm sure you'll enjoy the roomy comfort of the truck cab (vs the usual van cab) as much as I do. Have fun!
