You probably know about the Beam alarm internet site.  Foretravel Motorhome technical help and information links (http://www.beamalarm.com/foretravel-links/foretravel-technical-help.html) If you don't, you should as it has a lot of information on Foretravels.  I have utilized it several times.

Congratulations on your new to you Foretravel and welcome to the group. We may be a bit biased over a '97 but we think  you got a good year.

Welcome to the club.  You will enjoy it every time you stop on the road.... and when you pull in to a campground in the rain.

Or snow... just push a button (twice) to level and then connect the electrical cord. It's already at the right temperature inside and someone can start dinner while you're doing the cord. :)

Not to mention the nice clear view of traffic (and the scenery).
