Purchased 2003 Foretravel U320 40' 2 slide

Tomorrow we begin the move from our 1994 Bluebird BMC 37' into a 2003 Foretravel U320 40' 2 slide.  Will be very busy doing the move in only 2 days, then cleaning the Bird.  We are full timers, so lot's of stuff to sort, plan where to put it, and accomplish the move.

I have the Bluebird presold, being picked up  this coming Saturday.  We are currently in Weatherford TX at a good friends place who has loaned us his side yard for a door to door move.

Congratulations, Dan!  What an exciting time for you and Sandy.  I think that this is the fun part - finding new homes for all your things.  I will be very interested how the adjustment is, and what your thoughts are on living in a Foretravel after living in two different Bluebirds.  ^.^d

Dan and Sandy,

Congratulations on hour new home. We recently bought a 2003 U320 and love it. From my relatively short relationship with our coach I would say you made a great decision. Your going to a bigger coach with slides will be a huge upgrade in room for the two of you.
Plese let me know if there might be any questions i might be able to answer.
Enjoy!

Thanks all.  The move begins this morning.

We had great sellers that gave us a good education in advance, plus I have been reading the forums for quite a while.  I'm sure we will have many questions along the way.

One day of moving from one coach to another done. Amazing amount of stuff in our Bluebird to transfer to the Foretravel. One more to 1.5 more days to finish the move.

We will still be organizing for a few weeks after that. Our Bluebird coach buyer flies in Saturday afternoon and I will pick him up (63 miles each way).

Much thanks to Ernie and Brenda Ekberg, friends since 2001 when we met a Bluebird TX Rally,  for letting us use their side yard to do this move.  Ernie does some amazing coach flooring work, and did our Bluebird in August of 2010.
