1st trip of 2011
by Mopar_Earl on 4/7/2011, 2:08 pm
I'm heading to Ohio and Indiana the next few days. Leaving after work friday night, than stopping over at my friends in Huntsburg, Ohio for 1.5 days than off to Indiana. Going to pick up some parts from Forest River while there as well as try and get a tour of the Wildcat line. I might hit the RV-MH Hall of Fame as well.

My Wildcat factory tour is Monday @ 10:00. I'm hoping they'll let me take pics to share with the Forum.

Ask them to let you take pics of the Concertone Installation, just before they button it up. I'd like to see them scambling to vacuum all that junk up that's left behind.

I made it back from Indiana. I got a few pics to post later. I toured the Wildcat factory as well as Lippert's main campus. Had very detailed tours of both places.

No, I haven't had a chance. Maybe this weekend. Just basic pics as I didn't take any pics inside either plant as most plants won't allow you.

Yeah, it was nothing like I was expecting. Was a small place in the middle of no where with dirt parking lots. I'll post a post this weekend in detail of both Lippert and Wildcat tours.
No, didn't meet Rod. He sat the tour up for me with the plant manager Shane. I believe Rod probably works in the Forest River Corp building.
