I'm trying to decide whether to tow to Tuscon. One factor to consider is
how much load it would need to carry. With a 23' GMC, 'most everything
extra must go into it. Like the wheel alignment gear I'm planning to bring
for someone who wants to use it. And the Electric Wiper Kits I usually
sell. Without the toad, I won't bring any. So, if you're interested in
buying one at Tuscon, let me know NOW or you may be disappointed.

Hi Ken -

First of all - I'm really looking forward to meeting you at the rally and thanking you for all of the information that you've contributed to the community. It has benefited me greatly on more than one occasion.

Secondly - I have one of your kits - from the rolled-over Peter Huber coach. Not yet installed.

If you'd like to do a demo / installation - I'll bring it along !!

Thanks,
SW

Steve,

My R. hand's still not up to much "installing", but I'll gladly "straw
boss" if you want to do it there.

Ken, There are a LOT of things to see and do in and around Tucson. If your plan is to attend the rally and stay there on the KOA grounds, don't bother with the towd, but if you want to stay a while and check out the local sites, you might want to bring the towd. On the other hand, with a 23 footer, that might not be as much of a factor.

Carl,

Thanks for the advice. Fact is, SHE's so paranoid after 20 years of GMC
ownership with a tinkerer/prototyper, that SHE'll probably have a hissy-fit
if I leave here without the lifeboat. :-)

Carry a small motorcycle on the trailer hitch. She can ride that "life boat" for help while you wait and maybe watch TV or snooze in the coach.

It'll be colder'n that "cold day in Hell" when SHE gets on a motorcycle of
ANY size, kind, or description. SHE still hasn't forgotten getting HER leg
burned on the exhaust of one 70 years ago! :-)
