By now it is mid April and I spent the next 2 weeks hooking up wiring, brakes, and steering. The moment of truth was here...turn the key and....it fired right up. I was relieved it was running and moving under its own power. Seeing as I was not going to make it to be able to pick up the camper in time, I borrowed a friends dually and got it home. Now that the camper was at my house, I could figure out the fifth wheel hitch. They do not exactly make a standard bolt on hitch for something like this. I figured it out and test fit it to the trailer.
I had reserved several camping spots through the end of summer and our first one was Memorial Day weekend. Three weeks to go and I was starting to get nervous.
