We brought home our new 179 today. Purchased at Labadie RV, Toledo, Ohio. Phenomenal prices, great service and good people.
After 48 years of marriage and many days and nights in 4 - season tents, we are starting a new chapter in our lives.

Very nice.  We have had our 177 since March 2011 and feel like royalty.  A big move up from tents and pop up camping which is what we did for 35 years.  We like giving tours of our pod as usually, regardless of where we go, there are many curious people who want to see what it looks like inside.  Am sure you will be given the same privilege.  Maybe see you in northern Michigan sometime, but not today, more snow in the forecast but wait, 37 for a high, WOW, spring is almost upon us.

Oh yes, we will for sure be in the U.P. as its one of our favorite places to go. We have camped there at all the neat places, Copper Harbor, Lake in the Clouds, Munising, including a few places way out of the way on Meade property.

I have also motorcycled with the Patriot Guard through the U.P. several times. And can remember a few white knuckle rides over the Mighty Mack in wind driven rain. LOL

Deer hunted there too around Powers / Spaulding.

And we have been around your area many many times, M22 is a favorite along with LeLand, Travis City and places in between.

Love Manistee, both the beach area and then the river for steelhead.

When we are headed that way I'll try and remember to let you know. Not sure when that will be though.

Thanks
Dave & Joyce

Sounds great!
We pick up our 2017 179 this Friday at Big Daddy's RV in London Ky and then stopping at Indian Mountain State Park near Jellico for our first shakedown.
