Hi all!
Wow, I haven’t done a blog updating y’all on FitRV happenings in ages. Wednesday’s upcoming big event motivated me to sit down and type a little, so let’s start there.
BIG NEWS COMING FROM WINNEBAGO!
Well, at least WE think it’s big, because one of the new things they’ll reveal this Wednesday is OUR NEXT RV! We got a sneak peek at it a few weeks back, when we were invited to Winnebago to be part of their ‘Virtual Product Launch’. We’ve been talking about the features of our dream coach for many years (and again in our latest series of RV shopping videos) and turns out they’ve been listening. I won’t spoil your surprise but, you guys, this new coach is just freaking awesome. So, make sure you tune in to Winnebago’s “The Road Ahead” video on Wednesday (we even make a small appearance!!!).
There’s going to be a live chat happening while the Virtual Reveal video plays, and we’ll be there chatting with you! We’re so excited to hear your first impressions and find out who else plans to make this new coach their next coach.
Heads up! Since the product launch isn’t only about this one RV, you’ll only get a quick first look in that video. So, AFTER the launch, head over to Winnebago’s YouTube. They’ll be releasing a full RV walk-through video that will be much longer and much more in-depth. Winnebago filmed it, and they had James and me walk around the new coach with the lead designer Brian and allow him to talk about all the cool new features. We haven’t seen the full walk-through video yet either so we can’t wait to see how it turned out!
AND THEN!
After all that drops, head back here to FitRV or to our YouTube because we’ll be putting up a video about the new RV ourselves… sharing our thoughts and even sharing some measurements and answering some questions we’re guessing you’ll have. Our video isn’t part of the launch; so that one’s all us coming at you from a very exciting location: James’ office. We haven’t filmed the voice part yet (that’s tonight’s fun!), but I’m sure we’ll even be talking about some mods James already has planned, and showing the things we like and even things we dislike.
I’M LAUNCHING A FACEBOOK GROUP FOR THE NEW RV!!!
You can join that BY CLICKING HERE!!! Expect that Facebook group to be a great source to get your questions answered and get all the first scoop on the new RV.
So there it is!
That’s all the good stuff we’re currently excited about in our lives. OH also!!! One more noteworthy thing coming up:
MY HALF A CENTURY BIRTHDAY!!! (gulp)
December 1st, to be exact. So far, I’m looking ahead to the day with trepidation…. not sure how I’ll really feel about it until I’m actually 50. I’ve never had a problem before with a birthday, but if any birthday is going to get me, it’ll be this one. Sigh…
So back to happier thoughts: like new super cool RVs! Don’t forget to tune in to Winnebago’s big event on Wednesday, and then watch the full walk-through on their YouTube, and THEN! Come watch our own FitRV chat and walkthrough!
Hope this finds you all well and hanging in there. It’s been a hell of a year, but I know there are better days ahead. Happy to chat with you below. Be well, all! We’ve got this. COVID, birthdays, new RVs… we’ve totally got this. See ya Wednesday!
Love, Stef
I Like Ekko winnebago How many miles. a gallon on Hwy driving. I’m 61 and retired veterans .looking to travel and to live in. I like remove the two chairs see put in small Theater seats or small corge.
We’ll have to wait until we get our new EKKO to report on the mileage. We just don’t know yet!
Having recently experienced (as opposed to celebrating) my 3/4th’s of a century birthday, I envy rather than feel sorry for you!
Wow, I can’t believe you will be 50 ! You don’t even look 30 ! I am over 50 as well, and my birthday is also in December. I think I will go the botox route from here, much easier than the workout you give online. LOL… Can’t wait to see the reveal and what you and James decided on ! Hope to see you in Tampa again, and will explain to you how you get shorter as you age ! Be well, and happy holidays !!!
LOLLL! Oh Yoshi, you always just make my day!!! Hope you’re well, buddy… and you don’t look a day over 30 yourself!!! xo
I hope you find that life keeps getting better with every birthday!
Thinking about it, at least so far, it actually has. Thanks, David! 🙂 xoxo
7 days behind you on that 5-0… we’ll survive!
what’s the plan for the old RV?
7 days, nice! That means you were a victim of 80’s mullets and parachute pants, too. (I even had a red pair of parachute pants! Top that!!!)
Honestly, James is having a hard time talking to me about plans for selling Lance! He’s so emotionally attached, so it’s gonna be hard to get him to make a plan with me. So far all’s I get is, “maybe we can look into selling Lance in the Spring.” That’s as far as I’ve gotten, but I’m still working on him. It’s going to happen! Just not sure when or how yet. Will keep the updates coming!
Fifty is the new 30. And neither of you look much over 30 anyway. Looking at 60 myself next year. Just reminds us to seize the day! You have us amped about the new C-. We are hoping it’s actually going to be above average- Sounds like you two are giving it an “A”
Definitely!!! In the ‘Sea of Sameness’ we mostly see across the US RV industry, this new RV deserves an A for being different and disruptive and busting out of that mold. And hey, you’re right about seizing the day… thanks. This looming bday has certainly got me thinking about that!!! xo
Way to build the suspense! We can’t wait to see all the details!
I can’t wait to finally talk about!!!
Such anticipation! Excited to see the new FitRV home on wheels. (And Stef, about that birthday … it was just about my 50th that I made up my mind that I was going to live to 100, and I MEANT it! It’s made all the birthdays since then much easier to take. I’m 68 now, so just barely over 2/3 of the way. See how easy that perspective is?)
I love that!!! I’ve always believed in the power of setting intentions, and how it helps things come true. Onward to the next half-century!
