In reply to Denisa. Hi Denisa. Glad you enjoy the blog! We'll probably be in Big Bend TX in late December. However, we're not 100% sure we're going. It's quite out of our way, and some folks have said not to bother. We're thinking of maybe going to Carlsbad Caverns instead. We won't know for sure for a few more weeks. Good luck with full-timing! -Mike

We begin our full-time journey in January in a Tiffin that we just brought home last month. So I love to read posts of others that are just starting their RV adventure. Your website is one of my favorites! I see that you will be in some of the areas we have planned for this winter. When do you plan to be in Big Bend? I am looking at places to stay with a 35 foot motorhome that will still allow us to do some of the hikes in that huge park. Have you got that figured out?

Your anticipated journey is the one I am toying with for us next year.

Today, we moved into our rig and will be full-timing for at least the next year or so. I can’t wait for an update on that 5-Star Tune. We thought it looked like a terrific accessory when we saw it at the 2013 Hershey RV Show. Keep posting, we are enjoying it emensly.

In reply to Tomi Newcombe.

Tomi, sounds like you had the “2014.1” coach, which had the bad LEDs. They made some mid-year changes, and ours is a “2014.2” since it was built in March. Different lights, and a few other minor changes. So far we really like the 5-Star Tune. It can’t work miracles (this is still a gas coach) but we can definitely feel the increased power and acceleration, and more importantly the peak power is at a lower RPM, which means less engine noise. Haven’t really seen a change in fuel economy yet. We’re very glad we had it done.

Good luck!
-Mike

Really enjoying following your blog.
We too have an 2014 Allegro 36LA that we purchased December 2013. We don’t fulltime, so our traveling won’t be as extensive as yours, but I enjoy hearing about yours!
I’ll be interested in any information you post about the 5-Star tuning on your rig as you continue. Our coach is currently being re-fitted with all new overhead LED light fixtures ( and ext porch light) as we were experiencing radio-interference with our TV. Also having the propane regulator replaced as once temps reached down into the 30’s at night, our furnace wasn’t kicking on. ( tested stove also and it wasn’t working, thus my conclusion it was the regulator).
I am also replacing our kitchen faucet, thanks to your post! Hope to do a new kitchen backsplash this spring too.
Wishing you happy carefree travels!
Tomi
