First Trip

Hi all,
Left Idaho on Monday and about 500 miles later I am in Southern Utah. Trip was not bad at all the Powerstroke had no problem with the new 3500RL. There was one 45 - 50 mile an hour wind gust that got my attention (took about 30 minutes to let go of the wheel)! Anyway found a couple of minor problems to look for on the new ones. After hooking up to water I found that I had quite a bit of water leaking from underneath. Further inspection showed that behind the hookup console there must me about 30 valves and conections. About half of them were loose. Also I had a bad electric heating element in the water heater. Both of these problems were minor and I was able to fix myself. I am very happy with everythine else so far but I will keep everyone informed. I hope everyone has a nice holiday weekend......MIKE and MARY
