Hello from Colorado!

Hello all,
My name is John. I currently reside in Leadville Colorado. I am sure I will have plenty of questions along the way. I Recently closed the deal on my new van. I will be picking her up next week. I am planning on doing a full conversion.

Cheers for now!

Hi John,

Rig looks awesome! Welcome to the forum. I'm in Colorado as well, but Fort Collins. Wonder how many Colorado folks we have on the forum? Maybe a summer meet up in the high country?

Cheers
Mark

Absolutely Mark! I'm an import and just moved up to 10,200 feet. I really love Colorado so far. I would also love to meet a few fellow van people. That might be a very fun group to get together!

Cheers,
John

Congrats on your purchase! We're also in Colorado, in Fort Collins and would definitely be up for a Front Range meet up. I really need to post an intro.

HI Patrick -
You don't happen to have the silver rig with CCV top on it I see over by New Belgium all the time? I need to post an intro too. I just sorta jumped in and didn't introduce myself to the group. Gotta do that...

REF and Patrick - Who do you use for mechanics on your rigs. I'm having a hard time finding someone I trust here in the Boulder, Longmont, FOCO area. I actually have my rig at Performance Tune right now and I'm a little hesitant but have my fingers crossed since it was a recommendation.

Congrats John, The adventure begins! I am on the front range down in Colorado Springs. I think a Colorado meet up would be a great idea. I vote yes.

If I can be of assistance please ask.

-Eric
