Welcome, Steve! Congratulations on your purchase. When is the hatching? Will you travel to TX to pick it up?

New Casita

Congratulations to both of you! Let the adventures begin!
Not sure how familiar you are with this site but you might want to visit the forums for Rallies. Attending Rallies are a great way to meet folks and learn what they've done to their rigs. Folks are so creative and make our little spaces so unique!
Maybe we'll see you at the next Fiberglass Rally at Lake Casitas in 2016? It's in Ventura County, CA and next year will be the weekend before Halloween.
Did I say road trip????

Thank you all for your welcoming replies. My wife and I are both looking forward to this new time of adventure. We drive down to Tx from Oregon in May to pick up our Casita. For now I'm biding my time studying the forums to learn as much as possible. We do plan to attend a casita rally on the Oregon coast in July. Hopefully we will meet some of you there.

Hi Steve,

Welcome. I joined this group in August to learn more about FG Egg rigs as a potential first RV for my DW and I in a couple of years. Three months later we bought an '05 Casita 17' FD! This past weekend we just bought a used to tug to tow it. We have never RVed!!! Most of the folks above inspired Laura and I to take the plunge. This is an amazing group of knowledgable, passionate, helpful folks!

Congratulations!

Dean

We pick up our Casita in May which seems like a long way off. Pictures are sure to be forthcoming.

Yup, the wait seems like f-o-r-e-v-e-r! We waited three months for ours and got it last October. We have the 17 SD and we are very pleased with it and with the entire factory experience.


This site and the Casita forum are great places for info. I'm sure you already know this, spend the bucks and buy the A-Z Casita owners manual for sale on love my Casita. Without exception it is the best $30 you will ever spend on your Casita. The other plus is that it will make the few months wait so much more fun as you read that very detailed manual.


The other must buy, the rubber door stopper to go on the outside of your entry door. If you don't put one on you will have a dent in your door from the adjoining bellyband in short order.


You may find like many of us have, the Casita is the perfect combination of small size for easy towing and enough interior room for comfort.


Congrats on a great choice


Conrad
