Mom woke up in the middle of the night swealtering. Her air conditioner was not working and the house was stifling at 83 degrees and no breeze. When she realized the air was off she opened windows and doors and turned on the over head fans but wasn't able to sleep well the rest of the night. She called us at 6:49 am. Mark walked over and found the problem, called Philip, told him exactly what was needed to get it repaired and to get mom on the schedule for today. It was REALLY hot and humid on our walk. Mom was just too tired to do an entire round mostly because of her air conditioner break down. Right after the walk Mark and I left for St. Louis to pick up a camping trailer. This is a 2021 Forest river Wildwood FSX 178BHSKThis trailer had been ordered in 2020, was built and delivered in 2021 and once it was delivered the owner decided it was just too big for her to pull. It sat in her driveway waiting for us. It took about 2 hours to get the paper work done for the purchase and get it hooked up to our truck but the drive down was fine and the drive home was too. Below are a few pictures.
It has about every available option offered such as power slide out, power jack, power awning, outside kitchen, outdoor shower, the sway bar adjustable hitch, and even bug screens so wasps and hornets can't get into the furnace, water heater or any vents. We didn't get home until 6:30 pm and the ladies were all meeting at mom's for games at 6:35 pm so as soon as it was parked at the barn I left that and Mark to unhook it and drove the golf cart over to mom's where we played games and visited long into the night. Well more like 9:00 pm but it felt like midnight. When I finally got home I grabbed the keys to the trailer and took the golf cart up to check it out. The murphy bed is also a good way to have extra living area especially if it is a rainy day.
The dinette slide out easily seats 6 people and makes a queen size bed for the night.
And the double bunks each fit 2 children. The top bunk has a light, 2 windows and USB ports while the bottom bunk has a light, one window and USB ports. There is storage under the bunks. The 11 cubit foot fridge and freezer are SO much nicer than the small fridges usually provided in a trailer. The micro wave is a good size and the sink and stove each have covers which really expands the counter space.
Check out the power trailer jack with it's extra lock.
We are very happy with the purchase but there are things missing such as a paper towel holder, hooks, a broom holder, toilet paper holder. We had to add those on the other FSX and we will for sure need to on this one too.
