Welcome, indeed!  I am a bit jealous, thinking of you starting out on this Foretravel adventure.  We bought our first ('93 U235 36') in 2007.  I had been lurking and then joining this Forum for a bit (on the old site) and begun knowing some names.  SUCH invaluable help for 2 idiots who knew nothing about anything, except which end of the coach pointed forward!  Years later, after meeting folks online and knowing them for perhaps years before finally meeting in person, we have been through 3 Foretravel coaches and lived on the road for about 5 years. Even after downsizing to smaller rigs (that I was happier driving) we have remained readers of this Forum and keep abreast of many of the folks we met here. This place is invaluable for SO many reasons. 

Foretraveling was some of the very best years of our lives.  I just can't let it end!!

And if Carol tells you something, you can"Take It To The Bank!" because she knows what she is talking about. Her advice is pure gold.
This I know!

Welcome to the adventure, we love our Foretravel and have met the kindness folks because of it. As mentioned this forum is the best, search is your friend.

Congrats. These coaches are a huge undertaking and equally rewarding. Forum is equal in quality to your coach. Lots of good people that can extend lots of help. Search function is priceless. It's a big project, just get one thing done at a time. Make a list and prioritize.

You must be a tinkering kind of person, with this in mind you have just acquired a new mistress. I sure hope Mr.M misses this post. Welcome to the group. Remember the only dumb question is the one you are scared to ask.
