Title: Newbie
Post by: Tom Johns on April 04, 2014, 05:08:38 pm
Hi all we pulled the trigger on a 2003 38ft U320. Just wanted to say Hi. We are Tom and Nancy Johns from Monticello, Ky. We have had several Coaches but We think this is the best We have had. I'll try not to act to stupid but you know with a new Coach. We pick it up on the 14th from Motorhomes of Texas.

 Well, that puts us in the same boat. We are Tom and Mary and will pick ours up sometime next week. MOT seems very busy. Enjoy you new coach as I'm sure you will.

Congratulations and welcome.  This is the place to act "stupid"  Foretravels are built that way.  You will be discovering things for a long while.

Welcome to both of you. Yes, you will have lots of questions, and this is the place to get answers. We've had our coach for a year now and are still learning.

Congratulations! We are camping out at MOT right now in the new-to-us coach we bought yesterday! Will probably cross paths with you, and with Tom and Mary! We are in the 1999 U270 34'.

Welcome, I'm a newbie also and you couldn't have bought a better brand and the people on this site are the best. I have learned a bunch over the past year.

Wow!!  Welcome!!  Looks like the 6 of you (Tom & Mary, Tom & Nancy and Robert & Linda) are the "Class of '14"!!  You should all get together and compare coaches and features and records.  There are things that will be common (or similar) on all your coaches and you have all learned a good deal already as you have been doing your research.  The BEST source for tutorials are other owners.  I have learned a great deal (ok ... almost everything) from this Forum ... but you learn a lot when you talk to others who have devised storage solutions or maintenance procedures that make your living easier in the coach.  Beware of wonderful remodels!!  I have raided our bank account and given my husband grey hairs when I see some of the wonderful things folks have done and decided that we "just HAVE to do this"!!  Enjoy one another ... enjoy Nac!  It's a great town!  See you down the road .....

Yes, congratulations. The 38 ft U 320 (2003) is a great coach. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do ours. I'm wondering if you bought the one at MOT that is identical to ours?

Al and Sue, thanks! You persuaded us with your beautiful, comfy (and spacious) non slide.  We are happy with our "new" FT, though lots to do. And still learning about it as no doubt we will be for years to come.

Cheers,
Linda and Robert

Hello,  We are Nick and Donna from Harlem, GA.  We are the ones that bought the 1999 U295 4000 on Ebay last week.  Picked it up yesterday so the learning has started.

On another thought, we have been following another pair of Newbies around the country for the last few years.  We have travel to about forty states with Tom and Nancy (tom7).  All those trips were in a couple of Barths.

Hi Nick, welcome to the fold. Love it when I see barths.  You will love your new coach and feel free to shout out your questions.

Hi! We are Dick and Belinda Spann from Columbus, MS. We are also newbies with a 1999 U270 36'. Everyone on the forum is great to give good advice on anything, even what I thought was probably a stupid question.  ENJOY!

Congratulations! We have had our coach for 5 years and find this forum very helpful indeed.
Happy Trails and enjoy your visit to Texas, many great places near NAC.
We really enjoy visiting the Tyler State Park which is not very far up the road.  Call first, it fills up fast :)

Funny you mention this that way.  As an avid rv'er and sales manager of Foretravels California store I used my used inventory to go rv'ing.  Fixed/rebuilt more coaches than I can remember.  And liked doing it.
