Request from a newbie

"If Mama ain't happy, ain't NObody happy." Paula accompanies me only very infrequently and only overnight. I'm something of a different fish, I
use the coach to get to dog shows primarily. However, since I bought the first one I discovered the GMC community. Now I go to the occasional rally
if it's within striking distance and get together with my new (four or five year) friends as well. Take Ma and go look a every one within a hundred
miles. Make a rally. If she likes, proceed. Otherwise shine them on and take up another interest :)

Thanks Johnny, I have a list of GMC members around the Southern Vermont
area that I hope to contact and take a look. Hoping Mama gets psyched.

Mike usually has some at his shop. I went to him last year with a list of things. Mostly they were things I was going to try and do, but when the CV
boot ripped I decided I didn't want to get really messy and I wasn't all that comfortable pulling an axle. He did my list and extra stuff that was
needed, rebuilt carb, rear brakes, changed airbags, added macerator, tuned up the genny (which I still have never used, just dead weight).
