Not sure how the TT lights and brakes are going to work with no power cord, though. She couldn't have picked a TT with slideouts?

When I first read the post title I thought this guy has a great wife. Now I realize that she's just a tease. Is spring ever going to get here?

That tow vehicle looks completely overmatched by that trailer.

You need to send her back immediately for the 1 ton dually diesel!!

Here's how itchy I'm getting to start camping again. Our Jayco Eagle is in winter storage (inside a building at the local fairgounds since the last week of October)....it will be out the first week of April.

So...there is another poster on this board (Wiscampin IIRC?) who has the exact same 2008 Jayco Eagle 314 BHDS as we have..and he has a link to his webshots for people to look at.

The other day I had to click on his link just to look at his Eagle because it's exactly like ours. Haha!!


Hey MackinawMan,

Looked for Wiscampin's posts, couldn't find anything but you & I have the same TT also. Anytime you wish your TT could be "in the thaw" think of us over here in So Cal, "anytime campin!"

Beer mugs by the fire. It down's have a slide out. But it does have a swing out. No cord but all works, must be wireless.

Looks as though you could send her back to trade for a 5th wheel the hitch is already on the roof of the car

I think the TV is going to be underpowered and overloaded. You may want to move up to something like this

Can you get that in a Diesel?

I saw some of those at the RV show in Atlanta this month. Cute...
