Loveland, CO: Another Beautiful Day

Spent the day mostly in camp just relaxing and taking care of business. Not a lot to tell other than the weather was beautiful today, all day.

We had met another couple camping here a few days ago. They have been considering a new coach and were interested in Tiffin. We gave them a tour of our RV and told them how we feel about Tiffin. Overall we feel Tiffin quality and support are excellent. And that's what we told them.

Anyway, today they came by to tell us they just purchased a new 2008 Tiffin 40 foot Phaeton RV. They will pick it up on Monday. In fact, they have been trying to get us to stay a little longer so we can see their new RV. Currently we are scheduled to leave on Monday for Mt Rushmore and the Badlands.

Figures they would stop by today and let MLA know they were getting a new RV. We looked at a new 2008 Tiffin 43 foot Allegro Bus on Monday. This was the RV we were initially going to buy. When the house didn't sell right away we decided to start a little smaller, a little less expensive, and make sure we really enjoy this lifestyle.

Well, now we know we enjoy travelling by RV for extended periods. When we went in search of the parts needed to fix the leak in the RV, they just happened to have a Tiffin 2008 43 foot Allegro Bus.

We still love the layout, all the room, and the cargo carry capacity. When we run the numbers it just doesn't make sense at this time. Or maybe it does and we feel a little funny about trading in our existing unit which is only 8 months old.


In any case we have (had?) decided to hold off for at least another year. And then this couple came by a got MLA all fired up again. Just kidding, however it did make us ask if we are sure of our decision.

I think so however if you see pictures of us standing by a new RV you'll know what happened.

See Ya!
