Christmas gift list.

Hello Friends,

Earlier this week, the wonderful other half of me asked what I wanted for Christmas. I reminded her that all of my Christmas gifts where obtained earlier in the year.

One is setting at Twin Mills Resort in winter storage, one is setting out front in the driveway, one is setting at the other end of the sofa from me and all the others are a collection of things added to the coach thru out the year from Lippert. The trailair pin-box, the rear stabilizer, the under-belly slide out storage boxes and most recently since I came back from the Reno Rally, hydraulic landing gear.

What more do I need? Any of you have any ideas? If so, I will pass them on to the wife.

Thank you all, for one of the best years of my life!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Please stay safe!

Sounds to me that you are already one lucky guy. Santa has been great. Hope you have a Happy and Healthy New Year too.

Sounds like a wonderful year. And it is just the start of many wonderful camping seasons to come.

Best wishes for continued happiness in the New Year. Thank you for your help to all us fellow Monty owners concerning our slide systems.

Dale, the next time Santa is at your house delivering your RV extras, please give him my address and tell him I have been a really good boy all year.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU TOO.

Dale I bet if you go to RVToys.com you will find a little something to ask Santa for. Or go to Hosebuddy.com and check out that inexpensive, very useful "TOY". Merry Christmas.
Happy trails.........................

Well you could get the one gift that would change your name from MIMF2 to GOTIT.

Anyway, It does sound like you had a very good year so maybe you best not push it.

Merry Christmas

Ken,

Anything that I do to the Challenger can be done to any of your Montanas. All it takes is some cash!

Glenn,

I'll have to think about that. GOTIT!? I certainly won't push anything. Some of those "pimp" items I paid for out of my pocket. Others I had to do some wheeling and dealing. The hydraulic landing gear came to me used from a brand X unit that we are testing. That is a long story that for now I have sworn to secrecy. So now my delema is what Keystone product do I have? A Chall-ambridge or a Camb-enger? I ain't figured it out yet.

And Ken. It is FAST!! I'll bet it takes 50 to 75% less time to hook and unhook.

Dale,
How about an automatic sattelite dish or a self leveling jack system? Maybe a new plasma TV. I think maybe we could dream all sorts of things for you to spend your money on. It's great fun helping someone else spend their money

Can you elaborate on your under belly storage boxes. Are they under the trailer or are they in the storage area?

Hydraulic landing gear, oh boy do I have to look into that. I think I have enough upgrades on my xmas list to last me for at least 3 more years of christmas. Come on lotto!

I’d also like to rework my slide hydraulic manifold with electric solenoids so I can operate any slide independently. What’s the price tag on these kind of things?

Thanks,

Ken

For all of inquiring about the under-belly storage boxes, I'll try to get a picture of it. It also comes in a version that stores the spare tire. I'll try to get those posted tomorrow along with some pricing.

Thanks for an encouraging and uplifting note, Dale. So glad to hear that this past year has been so good for you and we hope that next year will be even better.

Others picked up on the other interesting part of your note....the underbelly storage. Info would be welcome.
