Excel's New Travel Trailer

Peterson Industries has re-entered the travel trailer market! You can expect cutting-edge design and spectacular features just like what you have come to know in the 5th wheels.

Peterson's invented the groundbreaking "Drop Z" fifthweel frame, and has put the same design in the new Winslow Travel Trailer. This gives the travel trailer 100 cubic feet of storage in the basement. The 17-inch high storage compartment is beneath the entire front third of the trailer.

This trailer can also offer an on-board generator, and a dedicated compartment is large enough to accommodate dual batteries.

The travel trailer we had, has now left us for CA for a photo shoot (look for it in up coming RVing publications). But don't worry.... we have more on the way.

4th of July weekend with friends

RV Sales is all SASSed up!

We're having a great time at the End Of Trails.

Our New 33GKE

This new Excel has all the beautiful upgrades that Peterson Industries has to offer.

Name the Fish

We have a new pet fish at RV Sales!
Please help us name him. You can suggest names here or on our facebook page.

Ken's new potty

Ken came in for service and left with a new potty!
For whatever reason (or reasons we don’t care to hear about) Ken has been having issues with the seals in his potty. So he opted to try out a new style of potty we had just gotten in. Best thing about this new potty is that the seal is a snap to change. So we figured, (again, for reasons we don’t care to hear about)… Ken was the perfect one to try it out and give us feed back on it.
Thanks Ken for being our research guinea pig.

One last post and slideshow from the Spring Campouts.

This was our last day in CO City. It was a cool day, yet to nice to stay held up in your trailer. So we gathered around two fire dancers and had a wonderful time with friends.
Can’t wait for the fall campouts!

BINGO and the winner of the generator!

As always raffle night was far to much fun.

Saturday Morning Breakfast and Club Meeting

Raffle Ticket… Raffle Tickets… Raffle Tickets!

Everyone loves to win….. BUT when it comes to the Colorado Excel Club raffle things get pretty extreme.
This is the clubs biggest fund raiser, and as you watch people walking around with miles of tickets you can see that they must raise MILLIONS of dollars! (ok maybe not millions). This years favorite item is the metal dog that everyone really wants to win. We are worried that it might turn into a smack down!
We’ll keep you posted.
Also, tonight RV Sales will be drawing the winning name for the Yamaha generator. Good luck to all who entered.

At this morning meeting dates and locations for upcoming campouts were picked.... watch for more info. on that.

Colorado Excel Club Spring Campout Has Begun.

Finger Food Friday is the way the Colorado club kicks off the rally.
Hope no one ate before them came….. We had a TON of food. Including Birthday cake for George, and homemade ice cream made by Tommy.

After we ate we had introductions. It’s so great to see everyone and start the rally on such a fun note.

Colorado City Campout

What a beautiful morning!

Woke up early to find a bumpy frost on the picnic table. Not sure if the bumps were trying to be snow, but whatever it is, wont last for long. The sun is shinning and the birds are singing. We are looking forward to a great day with friends.

New Mexico Excel Spring 2010 Rally

It’s over and it was a great time!

There were activities for everyone to enjoy. A pet parade, wine tasting at local wineries, a wonderful catered dinner that included raffle prizes and awards, ice cream social, hot tub, and a fireplace on the veranda, perfect for story telling and fellowship. But as always, the best part was just spending time with friends reconnecting and making new memories. The weather got off to a cool, windy start, but ending with sun and heat. Thanks to Hacienda RV Resort for the wonderful facilities and making us feel at home.

The highlight of the weekend was the Pet Parade.

Lunch with Friends

Wonderful Club dinner!

Now we are looking forward to the fall campout in Creede! Hope to see you there.

The Oasis in Moriarty

Our service/repair/overnight area... which we fondly refer to as "The Oasis" was full last week. We had a great group out there, some in for service, some in to help us with the open house, and some that were in for service that we put to work with the open house.
States that were represented were, NM, CO, VT and TX.
And our one pretty little tree was in bloom.

April 16 open house

Today was the first day of our two day open house. The weather held out and it was a beautiful (chilly) day!
We had three seminars: En-Joy Rving, New Mexico State Parks, and Traveling to Alaska. Our classes are always informative and FUN!
We also served a yummy lunch of hot dogs, salad and a baked potato bar. Thanks to Mac for his help on the grill, and all the ladies that helped in the kitchen.
This was also the first day to register to win the Yamaha generator. Best of luck to all that entered.

Open House

Our open house is this weekend! (Friday and Saturday)
Don’t miss out on the fun and your chance to win a Yamaha Generator.

Special order computer desk

Tom and Donna came to RV Sales this week to have the special ordered computer desk installed in their rig. Tom and Donna are full timers and found that the dinette just wasn’t meeting their needs. The computer desk has a flip up table that will seat four when needed, but gives them more useful space when a table isn’t needed. Perhaps Tom or Donna will chime in and give us more feed back on how it’s working form them.?.?

Their rig us beautiful and this desk looks GREAT in it.
As always we love when Tom and Donna come to see us, and we can’t wait for them to come again! We wish them safe travels and hope their summer in the Northwest is wonderful.

The new EF2600 can power home appliances in an emergency or tools like disc sanders and space heaters. Its quiet dependability offers unrivaled performance and peace of mind. It's a lot of juice for the money.

Wes and Spankie (it's always the dogs fault)

I got the below email and pictures today from Spankie..... Thanks for the funny story!


Here are the pictures. I am sure you heard the story, but we stopped to walk the dogs and Wes forgot to put the steps up (thank goodness it was Wes and not Spankie Lou). We went around a corner in Alb and caught the steps on a curb...we drove up to RV sales and Ralph said, "I've seen worse". But thank goodness Ralph could fix them and we were on our way!

The camping pictures are our Rio Rancho Good Sam group. We went to Carlsbad last weekend and froze during our "traditional" Sat morning pancake breakfast. Wes is pres of our Good Sam Group.

Bill sent us these wonderful pictures today!

Here are some pictures of Bill out in his new Excel Winslow 28RLW. We thought everyone would enjoy seeing them! I also put in the part of his email that explains where he is.
Thanks Bill for shairing.

Attached are a few pictures I took today of the new Winslow. They were taken in Lone Pine, California with the Sierra Nevada Mountains in the background. Mt Whitney is one of the peaks – it is the highest mountain in the continental United States at 14, 496 Ft. Lone Pine is also famous for the Alabama Hills in which over 300 old western movies were shot here by the Hollywood studios. The Lone Ranger, Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, etc. all did many movies done here. There is nice film museum in Lone Pine telling about all the films that have been done here.

My new Winslow has been great. I am really enjoying it.

Even with winter holding it’s grip on us, we have become rather busy at RV Sales. The service department is booking up, and we have sold a number of new and used trailers in the past few weeks.
Someday soon spring will be upon us and people will be pulling their trailers out for fun in the sun. That’s when we will really get busy. Please keep that in mind and call to schedule your service early!
