Christmas List - Montana Owners Club

Illini Trekker · 11-18-2005, 12:50 PM

Ok the time is getting close and the wife may need some Christmas ideas so what is on your Christmas want list? I got mine early (see sig.) but I do need lots of accessories!!!

I need a new TV, in case anyone has a bunch of extra money burning a hole in their pocket! I know my wife can't afford it, because her money is our money and we have two daughters in college, so we have none!

My wish is for a set of golf clubs for Christmas.

We have a lot of DVD's on our list because Judy told us we would need them in Alaska.
Happy trails...............

I liked the idea of an electric blanket. The space heater feels so good and an electric blanket would be even better. But I bet he means RVing ideas. Microsoft Streets and Trips is a great gift idea. The book entitled "The Next Exit" is useful as are many other camping books. How about a blue tote?

Electric blanket is a good RV gift. We have one in our Monty and use it all winter. The heater wakes me up so we keep it real low and sleep under the warm blanket. Blue tote? Do you mean the waste ones? I have one we are selling - you can have it cheap if you come and get it!
Happy trails.....................

I have a system from Bose speakers on my list to replace that junk quest unit in the living room and also putting a Bose 2 in 1 system in bedroom. The second thing on my list is the Dometic low-pro 15k a/c with heat strip for the bedroom. (that might become my bday gift to myself). Third and final is a Westin s/s brush guard for the front of my truck. Hope santa will remember I have been good this year. lol =)

My Christmas wish is for an outdoor gas campfire. They are sooooo hot.

jrgwdenner · 11-19-2005, 01:06 AM

Wow, Montana Sky, I'm glad you're not on my Christmas list! Oh, that makes me sound like a Scrooge, doesn't it?

Sue, we have a blue tote already which is necessary for us when we camp in Corp of Engineer campgrounds. It's not a bad accessory tho.

I want to get Paul a torgue wrench. Can you guys tell me what you have and where you got it. I don't want to spend a lot of money for one and at the Great Lakes Rally they mentioned a couple of types but I forgot what they were. I want one of those that makes clicking noises. thanks in advance for your help.

Illini Trekker · 11-19-2005, 01:47 AM

I would love a new digital camera, mine is about 5 years old and I just saw the new Olympus Evolt E-500 with 2 Lens, it is a 8.0 meg and has the lens like a 35 mm. Its only $899 and hubby just rolled his eyes at me. I have left the add on his desk for a week so we will see...................... not holding my breath!

Jan,

Sears Craftsman has a nice one that I picked up a couple weeks ago on sale. It's a 1/2" drive and I think I got it for $70.00. It is called a "Microtork" and comes in three models. I got model number 44595 in English not metric. It's capacity is from 20 to 150 ft-lbs.

Have a happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas.

Already thought about the Bose idea and i was told that the little cube speakers in the Bose Acoustimass will fit just right. Here is the link to that Bose system.....Les

I would like A tow vehicle, I am just glad my contract is open ended so I have some time. Though it would be nice to take the home out for a spin and see I do towing her.

You can't go wrong in buying a craftsman Torque wrench. Don't get the dial indicator type, as they are soemtimes hard to read. The Click type is the way to go. If you buy craftsman you have a lifetime warranty, no questions asked. I broke one a few years ago on a paricularly tight nut on a Differential, and they replaced right then and there at that time it was 12- 15 years old

Off topic: YorkieSue, that's a great picture of you guys and your rig. Your blog is really nice, too. Welcome to the forum.

Well reguarding my xmas list I will have to say that I am single and so I get to spend all the money on me. =) Well the family also gets 1 huge gift from me as well, but xmas and my birthday is a fun time of year for me. =) As far as the questions reguarding the Bose system I am installing I am going with the Acoustimass® 6 home entertainment speaker system for the living room and the 3*2*1 GS II DVD system for the bedroom. I am going to do the living room system and the a/c for xmas I think and then wait till summer for the bedroom and brush guard on truck. I have heard that the new Quest unit on the 2006 models actually does a pretty good job, I will have to take a listen and see since dealership replaced my quest unit back in Sept for the buzzing sound. Might have them order me an 06 model and see how that does since it would be free under my extended warranty. Oh how I cannot wait to pull the coach out of the garage for summer use again.
