MDKOZ Report post Posted April 4, 2017 Hi My name is Keith. My wife, Marian and I have arrived from Australia and purchased an A class RV in LA and heading to Miami in a round about way, we have just joined the FMCA but have been a member of the CMCA in Australia for around 15 years. I converted a 21ft LWB Toyota Coaster Bus to a motor home and traveled around Australia for about 12 year, but this Fleetwood is a bit longer and much wider than the Coaster so will take a bit of getting used to especially on the other side of the road. I am in Las Vegas at the moment getting shocks, tires and wheel alignment and hope it steers a bit better. The 78mph wind we copped on the way didn't help.

manholt Report post Posted April 5, 2017 MDKOZ. Welcome to FMCA and the Forum! Where in Australia do you call home? I circumnavigated on a cruise ship in 07' and will do it again next February! Beautiful country! You hit LV at the wrong time, I heard about that blow. What model and year Fleetwood did you get? Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manholt Report post Posted April 13, 2017 Quote Beautiful area. Had 3 days in Sydney, so I rented a car and got lost, Jervis is one of many areas that I stopped and asked, "Where am I"? Got some interesting responses! Mostly led to a Pub and lengthy discussion on where I should go next...made some friends in NSW and we still correspond.
