Viv,
I hope your new bus is everything you have always dreamed about. You have worked hard to get it, and I hope it exceeds your every expectation.
Viv....Congrats on your new baby!. I owned a 1985 American conversion for a number of years (7 or 8). American did great conversions, well thought out, not complicated and simple to operate. I know you will be happy with it and you should be!. Please be careful....DRIVE SLOW AND SWING WIDE!
Viv,
Congratulations on your new bus!! You have certainly worked hard for it. I'll bet you're one happy lady :)
Enjoy your new camper..... and be careful out there.... I've driven in NJ before :eek:
Viv, You've proven that patience indeed is a virtue. We wish you many trouble-free miles and the continued good health to enjoy them.
Viv,
I can't believe it, you have finally purchased your dream bus!! Just thrilled for you and please send lots of photos of you behind the wheel:D You truly deserve many many happy miles!

Thank You All, Sooo Much,
My eyes are red and all puffy from crying, but boy that's Okay...The Search is FINALLY over...and I believe I found a miracle of a bus...it's almost perfect...
I only drove it about two hours of the trip from Birmingham because Don needed to make time and I didn't want to drive more than between 57 and 62 MPH...but I did get to drive it the last 50 miles or so after we got to the NJ Turnpike and right up into my own BACK YARD...!!!!
I drove it in so I know I can back it out...!!!!
I knew a lot of you never thought I'd find it...but I never lost the Faith...got close a few times...but after I recovered from the disappointments one after another I got the Faith back and started searching again...and with what I finally found it was worth every minute of it all...
I've truly been blessed...!!!
Don taught me so much about it and there are things I'm still not sure of but I'll get them all down pat in time...I have a book full of notes already...smile...but it's amazing how it's all coming to me so much easier than I thought it would...I feel pretty comfortable behind the wheel already...confident not cocky...not ever...but it has been 26 years since I drove every day but Tues. & Wed. Always my days off...I never got weekends...never enough senority for that...
I can't tell you how happy I am...there just are no words...
I'll keep you posted to the good and even the bad too if there is any to tell...
It took about a half tank of fuel to drive the 975 miles from Al. to NJ...never gave us a lick of concern...drove beautifully all the way...
Now if I just remember all the things I have to do before I can turn the ignition key again, bring up my air to 100 or 105 lbs of pressure...put it in Drive release the emergency brake and back it out..."Did I leave anything out"...??
Here are better pics Don had put up of it on the Website..I'll take many of my own soon as I get some real sleep...and get moved from the Dolphin into it...

Very Nice looking bus Viv, you did good. However, you really should put the bus in Reverse to back it out ! :)Quote:
