Chanute

We are now sitting in the Chanute City Safari Park and Campground.  This is a very nice little park that is only about 1/4 mile from the NuWa factory and the price is right, it's free.  The sites have only water and electric but there is a dump station if needed.  Our appointment for service is for 7:00 in the morning and if the work goes as it has in the past few years we will be out by noon.

NuWa doesn't manufacture trailers any more, since late 2012, and now call themselves The Kansas RV Center providing sales and service for all brands of trailers.  The service personnel are the same folks that used to manufacture so are quite well experienced in any kind of repair.  We always have the roof and all seams checked for need of re-caulking and any other minor fix-it-up items.  This time we have a seal across the top of one slide-out that needs replacing.

They do have a couple of new HitchHiker models for sale that are now produced by Peterson Industries which is another Kansas RV manufacturing company located just west of Marysville in northern Kansas.  Peterson is also a top notch company producing high quality units and considered to be one of the top three RV companies.  However Jo and I believe that the trailer we now have will be our last RV since we know it is a quality unit and we customized it when it was built and have done our best to maintain it in top condition.
