hi everyone, wow, I had no idea that what I thought of as an unusual life-change was in fact membership to a huge club of like-minded adventurers. I bought a 1993 (I think) 8.2L diesel Gulfstream Ultra about six months ago and as there's just me and my big dog, I[m finding the transition a very pleasurable experience. I've been living in S.W. France for nearly 13 years, and being obliged to earn a living, never really got to do a proper tour of this part of the world. now I can, and in style.
The only jarring note has been the previous owner's unwillingness to do anything about the many defects he cleverly hid from view when I went to inspect it. Still, it was a good buy I think, and the change in lifestyle tends to imbue things with a somewhat rosy hue. Hang on, I'm a scouser, I can't be getting all poetic over a machine. Or can I ?
I agree with earlier comments regarding a tendency among the RV community to be over-lavish on when beginning to personalise their new surroundings. Perhaps I'm being too lavish in my intro.... but it's difficult to stop. Thanx folks
