lurker finally exposing himself
After sitting on the sideline for a few months I thought it was time to come out into the open. After owning a coachmen (many years ago), a 35 foot Winnebago Elandan, a FC Bluebird and most recently a WB Bird, I made the jump and bought a '01 Thompson. I keep my coaches for a long time so the Thompson aspect doesn't bother me. So far so good. The Thompson organization has been very accessable and has answered all my questions. I knew what I was getting into before I bought her. We've logged a few thousand miles on her and so far no surprises.
Mahwah...it must be Jersey
Welcome Rick, As a former upstate NY guy Mahwah always signaled we were entering NJ. Twice a week for years I would drive to pick up my little girl from her mom's place in Princeton and then Mt. Holly. The traffic through the Oranges forced me to get my pilot's ticket and purchase a Mooney aircraft. That was some time ago...Ford still had a plant in Mahwah! Like Mango I have fond memories of Cape May in the summer and Atlantic City's Steel Pier.

When is a Ford not a Ford
Harry, I had a 31 Ford that I drove to high school too, but it was 30 yrs. old and had a Chevy v-8 for power. :D :D NO RUST

Sounds good Harry, Those were the days! I think I remember you made a comment that you had a Rod you were still working on (trying to finish).
Time for SHOW and TELL. :D :cool:
