Hi and thanks - new Trillium owners

Hi, we just purchased a 1977 Trillium 4500. I have never belonged to a "forum" so I thought I would just drop a line and introduce myself and say thanks for all the topics and stuff shared on this forum by everyone. It helped us make up our mind to buy an egg.

Welcome to the world of fiberglass trailers. I see you are from Bridgewater - I'm assuming Nova Scotia? If ao I was in your town this summer. Spent a couple of weeks touring around NS with my Mom who wanted to go back to all the places she had spent time as a child/youth. Loved it! amazing area.

Really nice to hear (read?) from you. If you send me a list of what you are looking for I will keep my eyes open as I travel around. Since I am now in the fix up business as well, I will be paying more attention.

I work in Halifax and would enjoy seeing your trailer. I am a novice and could learn alot from you and the others. For example, have you ever taken out the windows to reseal them? How do you remove pop rivits?

Hi: b 'n m... Welcome too!!! You mean like this??? A cordless drill is the perfect way to remove a window.

Hi Brian!My wife & I are new on here too.You chose a good rv.We have been Trillium fans since 1975 when we bought our first 13ft.We had it for 8 yrs. We also had a 4500 for 1yr. It too was a great trailer.It came with a front washroom & slept 2. Which model do you have, gaucho or washroom? Whatever model you have I'm sure you,ll have great times. Enjoy! Dennis & Linda
