New Member and New RV'er.
Hello Everyone;
After two years in the making [planning], my wife and I have finally begun to make this really happen. We have accomplished the tow vehicle, and just recently became the proud owner of a document; it says I will own a Solitude 310GK as soon as the factory builds it.
Our plans are for a gradual transition from the working world to something more fun.... seeing the country and taking our hotel room with us. Visiting friends and relatives that we never had the time to get to. Enjoying our time, getting to know each other before we get too old to not remember. While I don't envision us being full timers, I could see us eventually get to 4 or 5 months a year out and about. Who knows, at this point the task is to get started.
I have been lurking on this site for over a year learning from those more experienced. It has proven to be a great resource and I hope I will be able to contribute to it. This is my first post, and a test of the system.Rob & Kathy

Congrats. Sounds like y'all jumped in with both feet. I'm sure y'all will be happy with your decision on the 310.

Welcome. There is plenty of good information on this forum. One thing you will want to do is find a good Pre delivery inspection (PDI) checklist to use when you pick up your unit. I believe if you do a search on this forum you will find some checklists to consider. Doing a thorough PDI will enable you to get any issues/potential issues taken care of quickly before they become an issue for you out on the road. Good luck!

Ditto your story Rob+Kath. New tow vehicle, almost new 5er. Rather than a condo in Florida, We thought we might go see some of this great country. Good luck with your adventure.

Rob and Kathy, Congratulations! That sounds like a nice set up. As RVRunners said, go to your PDI with a good checklist. There are a few in our “Referance Library” section. You may need to be a “site sponsor” to get to that section though. For $12 a year, it keeps our site ad free. Well worth the money to get all the knowledge this site has to offer. Great group of people.
