Dale I had 3 things a van a pete and a bumper pull trlr I was 1200 miles from Chicago and it was the most cost effective and expedient way to just get er done.

Full coverage with state farm with a stated value of 40,000 is 550 a year. That's not bad. I contacted Springfield and started the reregestraton as a motorhome and its all spelled out what to do not difficult.

State farm was very inquisitive about 2 specific items does it have a 5th wheel and can the motorhome be detached both red flags for them. There is a growing community of not for hire privately owned semi tractors pulling 5th wheel rvs. They dont insure those. Guess they cant trust people to not use them for freight or some other such nonsense.

Springfield asked if the rv can be accessed thru the cab. That is 1of the requirements. Although currently it can't that is in the works. All simple requests and requirements. It will be squared away the day the sec of state comes to look and certify.

Right now I'm playing with ideas for the door. What I'll do initially is drop the door 10" in and put 1step inside, then this set of 3 that fold up and that 5th step that will needed will be a stoop that I'll put on the ground. That will get me camping and I'll get more elaborate and do things differently for final assembly. I'm going to deck out the chassis and cab first that will give me time to think about the house side. I'm taking the mirrors off the doors moving them to the cowel and roof so I can suicide the doors. 10 in exhaust, duel 15 in stainless breathers, nice visor. That stuff is all timeless and I already know exactly what I want the front to look like.
