We recently purchased a 25' Bigfoot TT and are wondering if there are anyother Bigfoot owners on this forum--or are we out of the "lightwight" class?
By the way, we LOVE Ms Yeti, as we call her.

Welcome!
We have lots and lots of Bigfoot owners here, but I think you are our first with the newer 25' with walk around queen bed (or twins). We have a couple of 21's, bunches of 17's, and a couple of 13's

Well, we a glad to see we are not alone. There is very little activity on the Bigfoot owners web site. We have the rear queen--didn't even know there was a twin option, not that we'd have taken it.
On our first weekend, a shakedown cruise, the power converter failed. The dealer replaced it right away on Monday when I returned to them (200 miles!). Our next week during the wetest week in 100 years of Virginia record keeping we had no problems at all. And we stayed dry. We have several more short tips planned this year and are planning a 2 month jaunt to Florida in 2007. As soon as we get the film developed I will post pictures--haven't gone digital yet.

I'm sorry, I should have been more specific... it's the Bigfoot owners group annual gathering. The details are on their site.

Welcome Ron & Sandy.
My Wife, & I, had a 17 Ft Casita for over 2 years and really loved it but wanted more room and still staying with the Fiberglass. So, a year ago last February, we sold the Casita and bought our 2002 21.5 foot Rear Bed Bigfoot.
We love the trailer and will probably never change to anything else. ( Unless I win the Powerball or Lotto and then I'll buy a new Duramax Diesel and a 25 foot Rear Bed BF.)
I agree that the BF site is pretty dead and I just won't pay again to join. I'd rather be here and donate some money once in a while. There's a lot of good people over there but it seems to me the Motorhomers are more talkative on the site than the Travel Trailer people.
Roger has a good point about the BF rally in September but we're not going to be able to make it. It might be a good thing for you two, though. I can't remeber where you're from but be sure and check for ''get togethers'' of FGRV'ers in your area from this site. They're a great bunch of people. Pssssst---you have to watch those New Mexico people though.
Hope to see you someday down the road.
Regards,
Keith and Shirley

Welcome! Congrats on your purchase, and we're glad you came.
I love my Littlefoot, and the next trailer will most likely be a Bigfoot 17'. (Barring that lottery thing mentioned above. )

Welcome!
Oh yes, we are here.
I am a new owner of a '92 Bigfoot 17'. I love it!
I previously owned a Trillium 4500 for several years (which I also loved) but needed to upgrade to a self contained--bit larger unit.
I am amazed at the quality of the Bigfoot.
Your '25 ft must be awesome!

Regarding the Black Hills, we are only taking short trips until 2007. Have to wait for Sandy to retire before our long excursions.
What is a "littlefoot?"
I wasn't aware that Bigfoot made 5th wheels. Any pictures?
