Oops...I did it again

So not being fully content with the limited space of my 19 Bambi, I went out and bought a 2006 25 FB. Wow it feels like a bowling alley compared to the 19. It's in immaculate condition and tows pretty good considering the extra weight. But it's 2,300 miles to get her home!

Congrats and enjoy the trip! I always find the Airstreams seem to tow better with water tank full.

It only took 2 short trips in our Bambi for me to begin the search for something larger.
The '07 Safari presented it's self to us and we "stepped up" to the 25'.

We are very happy with this move.

It's a great looking TT! Enjoy the trip home. Congrats!
I went the other way, from 31' down to 25'. We spent a full month in it in January. It's just right for 2.

Yes the Bambi will be going up for sale when we get back, clean her up and get her out of the barn.
