Just for "shucks & giggles" try sitting down some evening and write down all the changes you have made in your coach in order to make it all "YOURS". I don't mean the stuff down by MOT, a dealer, FOT or anyone but you!
I think everyone will be amazed at how much they have done without realizing how far they have come since they started. By how far I guess I am referring to the knowledge gained by doing it ourselves.
The DW and I sat down one evening and tried to list the things we changed or added since returning from Texas in March. We came up with 44!!! WOW! And we are probably not done yet. The strange part of this is almost none of it shows.
Great idea, should be fun! I know I never expected to learn so much about all the different systems in our coach (and I encourage all the other gals out there to learn about their coaches as well).

I've had my 91 U225 but 5 months... have yet to go anywhere in it :) . However, all that time has been spent pretty much tearing the coach down and redoing everything. In my case, it's how many changes did I make today? ;D.
Still exploring this machine and finding something new all the time. What a great coach!

And the more you do the more you appreciate the quality, the construction, the grade of materials, and the workmanship put into every detail.
Absolutely! I'm becoming spoiled - wouldnn't even consider any other coach in future.

I've learned waaay more than I planned to but still really don't know squat. Still, after nearly three years...my brain hurts.
Coleen and I have a lot of sweat equity in Casper. We had a 2005 Allegro Bus before the Foretravel. Because she didn't want a coach without slides. Now she wouldn't trade Casper even for the Allegro Bus. I haven't listed what has been done. Most of it was squawks that should have been fixed when they occurred. Biggest improvement was the graphics. A lot of labor to remove. I still have the TV upgrade to do. But when I do that it will be done right and finish the coach for now. I really like the Cat's 10 mpg and the way it drives. Retarder is a super feature. We were in San Diego last week. I noticed a guy standing outside just looking a Casper. I went outside. His comment. That is a very nice Foretravel. I really like the body style and colors. What year was it built? 1995 I said. He said. No way. It's mint condition. You should have seen it when it was new I said. I'm looking at it now he said. I thought it was new. LOL.
We get that every now and them. Says a lot about keeping a coach looking good. Of course, we have Xtreme FBP to help.
