Dewey McCollough

We picked our Ollie up last Thursday 8/5/21. After an excellent walkthrough by Hannah we got u/w for Davey Crockett site 67 where we spent 5 nights. Based on others forum posts i figured to test everything and if a problem arose i would be close to the factory. Well, no problems 861 was in excellent shape, as i expected😊. I have been reading these forms constantly since i first started thinking about buying one. They have been invaluable to me. Too many to name individually, especially for fear I would forget someone, but lots of great advise and suggestion are available for anyone willing to read. Thanks alot to all you who contribute. On our way home in Florida, but looks like TS Fred will change our schedule😂. For info the pickup is a Ram 2500 with the 6.4 Hemi. I started to get the Cummings but after realizing the cargo was equal to a half ton around 1500 lbs where as this one was 3002 lbs. To me that was a game changer as i don’t expect to live long enough to wear out a diesel. Dewey

Well, thought I should finally say Hello. I am Dewey McCollough, the better half is Julie, and the boss is our 7 pound toy poodle Isaac. We reside in South central Florida during the nicer (winter) months and try to be else where during the summers. We owned a 43 ft Newmar Dutch Star for several years, did ALOT of traveling in it, saw a lot, and enjoying it all very much. We also realized we were having to skip lots of places we wanted to go because of our size. So, after after careful thought we sold the bus last October and placed our order for a Legacy II. Our pickup date is August 5, ( hull number not yet asked, or known) and looking forward to that event. Earlier in our lives we had a 18 ft trailer, can still remember those days and constraints, so we are going into this size/space downsize with our eyes wide open. Before, but especially since placing our order I have spent countless hours reading the various topics on the Forums, while my wife has spent at least an equal amount of time perusing Facebook. Lots of information and opinions out there.....the good, the bad, and the ugly! I have gained tons of valuable insight into owning an Ollie, but am well aware there is plenty I do not know. I am sure I will be asking questions and for Help as our adventures unfold. Sincerely,
