    Howdy from central Texas

    Hi everyone my wife Georgia and I just retired a couple weeks ago and are in the bigger than I could have ever imagined process of going full time may 1st. We pick up our 375res next Saturday and then get ready to rent house, sell the cows and hit the road. This is about our millionth fifth wheel and looking forward getting some great GD specific info and contributing when possible. See ya around the camp fire!
    Thanks, Paul

    Welcome Paul and Georgia. I can't imagine the work needed to go full time. But there's a ton of owners on here who have done it. Happy trails in your new unit.

    Welcome to the board.

    We're full timers also. We just spent the last two months in Athens, Tx. We arrived here in Umatilla, Fl. yesterday.....our home base while we explore Florida over the next couple of months then we head north and west.
    SOLD my 2017 Momentum 376TH being pulled by a 2014 Ford F-350 Lariat, FX-4, Crew Cab, Longbed, Dually. Not pulling the 5er, catch me on my 2013 CVO Harley Ultra Classic.

    Map = states that we've stayed at least one night in our RV.

    Thanks JCZ. We agonized and went back and forth for three weeks deciding between the 376 and the 375 before we finalized our deal...still am!! Both great rigs. Enjoy Florida!

    Welcome aboard Texas375. We sold our house in Central Oregon and went full time in May of 2017. We also got the Solitude 375res for this new adventure. We love the 375. IMHO it is the perfect trailer to full time in. We have been as far east as Iowa visiting friends and family. We are now in AZ for the winter and loving it. We have made so many new friends and hope to meet more. You are going to love your new 375. Your adventure and fun is about to begin. Enjoy!
