I sure will. We gave this one a lot of thought. I was leaning towards diesel for sure, my brother-in-law who is a very experienced trailer guy said we should be fine with gasoline for what we're doing and how many miles a year we're going to put on. We are going to full-time but we do plan to stay in one location for 4-6 weeks at a time. He said don't worry we should be fine and I hope he's right. Thanks for the great wishes

You guys are a great bunch and very supportive we sure appreciate that I'm glad to hear several of you also purchased from fountain Valley. The folks there Jerry and Ira were very nice I must say. So much easier than buy me a TV. That was quite the nightmare but we got through it. Bottom line we got between 20 and 22% off on both the FC and the TV

Congrats and welcome! Think about what you want to take from home when full timing, and plan where it will go in the AS. We did before we got ours, and it helped that we opened every cabinet and planned where things would ride. We had the kids get what they wanted from the house, had a garage sale for the rest, and, took those leftovers to Goodwill. Don't overlook clubs, either, for support on the road. See the Airstream Club at www.wbcci.org, and for full time support, see www.escapees.org. Both great clubs, and we enjoy them both!

Thanks for the great ideas. We've got a ton to learn and will be looking for a club so this is perfect. I'm going through a bunch of post here and soaking it all in.
