PLUTO is here! Yeah

Unfortunately it was a very rainy day, was not happy that they hooked it up to my vehicle, only showed me how to attach the sway bars and stabilizer. Had a friend come with me so I wouldn't drive back by myself. Need LOTS of practice backing this in to the yard, couldn't get the sway bars off, and now I have a giant hitch I can't get off. John took care of the sway bars, but I still need to figure out where their "sweet" spot is, that's what he kept calling it anyway. So it's here, need to figure these things out before attempting a trip, but sending a message over to get him back with some ribs or grilled salmon. As for the pups, Alexis jumped in and out with no problem, but being 9, I do need to get that ramp before she hurts herself jumping out, she just totally bypassed the steps, Beck wants no part of it right now, so that is going to take some work.

As for the drive, easier than I thought, so that's a good thing. :D

Welcome inside! My 4runners name is Neptune, so it was only fitting to go with another planet, that's how I came up with Pluto

Two burner, pantry and additional storage under sink for crockpot, George foreman and skillet

Half tub? Nah, shower only :lol:

Twin bunks will be storage area
Image

Queen mattress is actually pretty comfortable

Little dining area

The little counter space was the decision maker, most didn't have any in the lighter models. Where do they put the coffee pot?

Thank you, not immediately and praying that the nothing comes in the gulf to push us out before ready. I do have a little trip to a friends place in September though. Need to get the sway bars figured out along with backing it in the yard.

The landing pad is nice and I might be backyard camping tonight. Thought about it last night but the weather was horrendous

. Is this going to be, which came first, the chicken or the egg? :lol: I just wish I had more time yesterday while John was here, but with the rain, he had a party to attend and I needed to get to church.

Protectors, yes, only because someone with the wrong intentions will go find an easier target, but that is not why I have them.

BayouLady - I've got similar pictures of my Lhasa Apso and my ShihTzu both sitting in the MH (Class A) at the top of the steps just like they were "protecting" everything. LOL Even had a guy jump off his motorcycle while we were parked with the door open, ask if he could take a picture of my pups and said he just had to send it to his wife - he thought it was so cute.
