Oh boy! A new "man toy" that my wife will also enjoy. Ten years ago we spent 36 months traveling around this great country in a 35' class a diesel pusher. Great fun. Went back to work....Thought it was time to hit the road again but on a smaller scale.

I am an old "shop teacher" and have already thought of several modifications I want to do. First being, install a 27" flat screen HDTV. My vision ain't what it used to be. I think I have come up with a mounting method that will allow the HDTV to swing into position for easy viewing from the couch and also the bed. Swing it back and it "locks" securely for safe storage while towing. Time to break out the scrap angle iron and fire up the MIG welder. If it works I try to post photos. New to this forum stuff.
Still more to see!
