I’m pretty sure you can get a LOT of fill into a GMC Motorhome!

Welcome!

Where are you located?

I am in the northwest side of Illinois. Genoa to be exact. Maybe 45 minutes
from Janesville Wisconsin.

At first my wife and I called it THE PROJECT. After further review I am
renaming it to THE BLACK HOLE OF PAYROLL

But thanks for welcoming me I appreciate that.

Welcome. I just drove through Janesville and Dekalb, county, IL on I-39 / I-90 twice on Thursday hauling a horse to and back from the University of Wisconsin in Madison.

You are in the right place for GMC questions or assistance. Ask away.

Welcome.

And after a quick run through, beware of the technical advice being bandied about on the facebook groups. There is an incredible amount of misinformation being passed around, some of which is dangerous. Great place to chat with GMC friends, poor place for technical information.

Since you are in the midwest, be sure to check out the frame especially
around the bogies for rusted through metal.
