SAR Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Hello, Scott and Conni checking in. We are excited to join the Oliver Club! Our delivery date for our Elite 2 is soon. Now that I finally retired (Air Force), we wanted a trailer more boondocking ready with twin beds. We have owned Airstream, Casita and Escape. Anyways, hope to see y'all down the road! 9 2024 E2 | Hull # 1527 |Truma | Lithionics (390Ah) |Compost |2024 Tundra| Airstream | Casita | Escape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich.dev Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Welcome from a fellow ex Airstream owner. We absolutely love our LEII twin bed! Not knocking Airstream, it’s still a good trailer, but Oliver‘s quality is far superior! 5 2023 Elite II, Hull# 1386, Lithium Platinum Package (640AH, 400W Roof Solar, 3000W Xantrex Inverter), added 400W Renogy Solar suitcase with Victron MPPT 100/30 CC, Truma water heater & AC TV: 2024 Silverado 2500HD 6.6L 10-Speed Allison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators topgun2 Posted January 11 Moderators Share Posted January 11 Welcome to the Family! Exciting times . Hopefully you have already started getting VERY familiar with the Oliver University. This not only will make your delivery go much smoother but it should help you way on down the road too. In addition - perhaps when you get bored with the University, you could simply start scanning through the Forum. Threads here run the gambit of things that cover both new and old(er) Ollies, places to see and do, problem solving, mods, etc.. Have fun! Ask questions. We're more than happy to help a fellow member of the Family. Bill p.s. thanks for helping us all out with your Service! There are a bunch of us ex military types here and we know the "drill".😉 1 4 2023 Ford F150 Lariat 3.5EB FX4 Max Towing, Max Payload, 2016 Oliver Elite II - Hull #117 "Twist" Near Asheville, NC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAX Burner Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Welcome to the Oliver Family, Scott and Connie! We're "part-time" Texans, our daughter, son-in-law, and grandson live near Dallas and we're there a lot (does that count?). We enjoy hauling our OTT there from NM for extended periods. Looking forward to seeing pix of your future adventures in your new rig!

jd1923 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Was Texans for near 10 years (2006-14) if that counts! Best state in the union for business, earn a good living, putting your children through school, high school and college sports, cost of living and many more reasons! Ran the TX to AZ roundtrip dozens of times! Our son's middle school tennis coach taught us a term we still use today. She'd say, "All y'alls" gather round, and we couldn't wait to hear what's next! Where but in Texas do middle schools have tennis teams? Yes, football of course. Our son played 1-2 tennis tournaments monthly in just about every city in Texas, from Abilene to Houston, Wichita Falls to Laredo and everywhere in between! He later played for a division 3 Texas university. We just loved traveling everywhere in Texas, our fondest memories. Welcome to the club and enjoy your new Oliver! 2 Chris & John in Prescott, AZ | 2016 EII #113 | '01 Ram 2500 Cummins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnwen Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Welcome Scott and Connie! Wen and I are AF retirees as well and have been fulltiming 4 years now (2 in a Casita). Our Ollie (twin beds) seems like a mansion with the extra 6 feet inside vs the Casita. We picked ours up 2 years and 1week ago and have not looked back. This Oliver community is quite amazing and we are very thankful to be part of it. We'll be at the "Q" in a couple of days to reunite with good friends. I know you will be pleased with your new Oliver. No trailer, as you well know, comes problem free but I can tell you that this Oliver community is quite amazing and experienced with handling just about anything. Congrats on your retirement :) Wen and John 1 5 Oliver II #996 "Bessie", 2019 Silverado LTZ 5.3, Veterans https://wenandjohnsadventure.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
