My name is Esther Newton, I live in Ann Arbor, Michigan for seven months of the year and North Fort Myers, FL for the winter. I have been RVing for about 15 years now and have had a variety of rigs, starting with a small Airstream trailer, going up to a 35 ft. class A, and back down again as my needs changed. Last month I bought a PC, 2350 because a friend of mine (also on the forum) had bought one of the larger models and loved it. She knows more about how things work than I do, and when I said I was thinking of getting a different small B+ she said no, get the PC. It so happened that the dealer closest to my Florida home had one in stock. I previously owned a diesel Via on a sprinter chassis that was the same length as the 2350, and loved many things about it but not having to go the Mercedes dealers (if they would service it), and the engine was finicky, always sending warning lights that were hard to interpret and potentially scary. I've had several Ford 350 chassis, and they were reliable and simple, so I was glad to go back to that.
Have only used the PC so far to drive up from Florida to Michigan, but so far so good (but see below). My main use now is weekends, I have two miniature poodles that I compete with in the sport of dog agility, and I hate staying at motels at the show sites. But my partner and I will be taking a short vacation to northern Michigan in July and somehow squeezing a large standard poodle in too. Wish us luck. That will be the shake down cruise. After that I'll be going to Elkhart to get the macerator fixed -- for some reason it is not working.
