all this talk about pillows...I honestly can't remember what came with ours. One of the first things we did was to bag that stuff up. the bedspread was one of those stiff uncomfortable for looks only ones....
I put it into one of those vacuum compressible ziplock bags, and jammed it into the cabinet over the headboard of the bed with the spare blankets we keep on board. I figured that if we ever need the space it would come into the house...but so far it's an example of how much extra cabinet space we have inside our class c... we tend to be a couple of packrats, and with 3 kids.... I find this amazing.
I figure for resale it'll add 'curb appeal', but really I probably should just toss the thing

We finally left the dealer at 5:00 pm yesterday. Yes, it took them 3 days to get stuff done. They don?t carry much repair stock since someone is back and forth to Tiffin most days. Our main issue was something as simple as the antenna cable for the Sirius radio! Took two trips to Tiffin for them to get the right one, and then they just didn?t get around to it, working other jobs instead. Kevin finally told them we were leaving Wednesday and would go to Red Bay directly to get things finished if they didn?t get it done. It did pour down rain yesterday, but I rather lost sympathy. As we were doing a final drive with the sales woman, we discovered a light cover filled with water. All the repair staff had gone hom,e but she climbed up on the coach to check. Everything was well gooped, and we think it was an in-process issue of starting on the antenna but not getting it finished. We will have rain again on Sunday, so we will see what happens.
Driving a diesel pusher was interesting. The brake was exceedingly stiff compared to our truck, and we can?t hear the engine to help with RPMs <grin>. We both drove it on back roads, through town, and on a divided highway, so life is fine. Going to do some laundry today and see how that goes. I have already stubbed my toe on the raised area around the back bed, so that initiation rite is over.
As for bedspreads, this one is better than the one in the trailer, but I already have a bed quilt started that will work great. Just need to find where I will store my sewing gear and get it finished.

"I have already stubbed my toe on the raised area around the back bed, so that initiation rite is over." Haha, yep. I outright tripped over ours and luckily caught myself on the bed!
