We got the call!! :-)

TNTBaker · 05-29-2014, 03:27 PM

We were celebrating Todd's birthday yesterday with lots of family over and were talking about how anxious we were to finally get our new coach... and the phone rang! It had just arrived at the dealership! NICE birthday present for Todd, I told him I had arranged it ;-) They made the PDI appt for next Wednesday. We are disappointed it isn't sooner, but I slept good last night knowing my coach was only an hour down the road waiting for us. I will, of course, post up PDI highlights. Maybe the service guy will call and give us an earlier time. When we talked to him a couple of weeks ago, he said he only needed about 48 hours. Who knows? AT LEAST IT'S HERE!!!!!! WOO HOOOO!

And yes, I will be driving over this afternoon to SEE it! They can't stop me from doing that. Eventually they will trespass us off of the lot.

Congrats! It's been a long wait for you, now down to just a few days. I'll be there on Tuesday, to get some things fixed and to have them look at a couple issues so they can order parts. Maybe I'll get to see yours!

Hope all goes well and you are enjoying your new RW very soon!

How long was the wait? I'm so excited for you guys. I think its worse than waiting on Christmas when you were little.

Steve & Linda · 05-29-2014, 04:50 PM

Wow, finally got the call, that is really great news. It's been a long time for you guys, congratulations! When you see it, you'll forget about the weeks since you ordered. Happy Birthday Todd.

LadyEcooper · 05-29-2014, 08:12 PM

Happy Birthday, Todd. So happy and we celebrate with you. Nothing like waiting on a delivery. Congrats to you both.

TNTBaker · 05-29-2014, 08:14 PM

Thanks everyone! It ended being 12 weeks. Certainly FELT longer! Still planning to sneak a peak at her tonight...fingers crossed!!

johnboytoo · 05-29-2014, 08:50 PM

Congrats !
bring camera/cell phone/tablet and take copious pictures for comparison later...

outside, top front, back sides,
inside the outside compartments,
inside the rv and all cabinets...

trust me - you'll be glad you did

TNTBaker · 05-30-2014, 12:38 AM

Eeeeeeeeeee! we had to sneak into their secret storage lot to see her but there she was! Happy days! Your right. All the wait is forgotten!

S&K · 05-30-2014, 12:49 AM

So happy for you! It only gets better from now on!

Ramblin Roadrunners · 05-30-2014, 03:05 AM

Rhonda and I got news today that are 38 GK would be built the week of June 16. Should be in Denver about six weeks after they start. So we are totally giddy! We had to go out and celebrate a little bit tonight. The wait is getting harder.

0nTheRoad · 05-30-2014, 03:21 AM

Congrats Jay & Rhonda...the wait is on!!

Ramblin Roadrunners · 05-30-2014, 03:27 AM

Yes indeed the wait is on. The excitement is building can't wait. I don't know what's more exciting realizing our dream or just retiring. I also go in June 13 for my first eye cataract surgery in the 27th for the second eye. That's pretty exciting for me too. They're going to do ocular implants and correct the vision. I've been blind far too long.

0nTheRoad · 05-30-2014, 03:29 AM

Sounds like life is good...and getting better!!

Here you go BLUE DOGS!

This is Todd next to our new baby! We got to the dealership after driving a long way. They said we couldn't see it because they had it parked on their auxiliary lot and because of liability we couldn't go there. Well, not THIS girl! We found the lot and got in there and found our RW. It was unlocked so we snuck inside and looked around. It looks awesome! No visible damage that we can see yet. We didn't stay very long because like I said, we weren't supposed to be there. Hey BLUE DOGS: Darin isn't there any more! Don't know why. Anyway, we felt very naughty and laughed all the way home!

Ramblin Roadrunners · 05-30-2014, 05:29 AM

I bet that was so much fun!!

Oriana · 05-30-2014, 06:23 AM

Congratulations and enjoy that new coach
