Today NEW 3465SA and a BEAR

Well we picked up the new unit today as it was about 70 miles away from us here in crivitz, so we got through the walk and ever thing else as every thing went well as could be , even if i did order the wrong color as i thought it was a dif color but its the same color as we had , but it all turned out great i hope .. so we left the dealer and 30 miles away we had to slow up as a 300 lb bear was coming across the highway at a full gallop , we never got a picture as he was gone but never had 1 this close in front of us before,, so home in crivitz, wi for a month yet then off to goshen and fl ,,, sailer

Congratulations on the new camper, I am sure you and Sharon will really enjoy it. Is the interior color desert sunset? I don't think the new Montana would look very good with a bear plastered on the front cap, you thought bugs were hard to get off.

Congratulations on your new unit! It would have been unBEARABLE if you'd hit the big guy!

You are so observant!!

Was it a male or a female bear?

Edited: Do they have those signs up so the bears know where to cross?
Maine has the for trained Moose, and Texas has them for trained Deer.

I never could figure out how they get them-thar-animals to cross between the signs!
