Everyone: I thought I'd pass along these photos of my new/used 2000 FWC Hawk. I picked it up last weekend in Sacremento. I found it on Craigslist and bought it for $5500. It needs a little cosmetic work inside but otherwise it is in perfect working order! I look forward to reading this...

I thought long and hard about this question.... Stan at FWC can send you a number if pictures of Grandby's on short bed trucks. I really do not think they look all that bad. I eventually went with the Hawk model. I travel mostly alone so the extra room of the Grandby was not really a factor. I...

It might be too late to change your order but I thought I'd pass this on.... I almost bought a used grandby in immaculate condition from Joe Sanders at ke6qhy@comcast.net. He has a 2004 Grandby with the shower and all the goodies. It might cost you $500 or so to cancel your order but you may...

Dirty Dog: I planned to have FWC mount the tracks, Yakima towers and cross bars. Do you think it's all Yakima? Have you ever thought about the solar panels? How useful can they be?

Too bad FWC does not have a better lift system. I toured Outfitter Manufacturing in Longmont, CO a month ago. They make a really nice pop-up with a nice lift system. Bad new is that they cost 3K-5K more. I just could not stomach spending even more $ on a pop-up so I went with FWC. It is...

Dirty Dog: Thanks for the tip! I'm going to dump the luggage rack and go with the long Yakima rack instead. I believe I'll go ahead and get the awning while it's at the factory! I believe you when you say it is not all that practical to carry too much stuff on the top. Wind resistance and...

Dirty Dog: Second question for you....What do you think of the awning option. Stan at FWC said it would be easy to add later so I did not get one. Do you think I should go ahead and change my order to include one? Thanks! Philip

Dirty Dog: I have a question for you... I am thinking about dumping the luggage rack on my order and getting only the Yakima setup. I have a ton of Yakima stuff and really can't think of any use for the luggage rack that I couldn't use the Yakima rack for. I was thinking about adding two more...

Perhaps a weekend trip to the coast to visit friends but most likely a week long trip to eastern Oregon to go deer hunting in early October

Dirty Dog: I have a 2006 silver Ford F250. I live out on Century Drive in the Braebern subdivision. Perhaps I'll see you around town?:)

Just thought I'd say hello and introduce myself as a new FWC owner. Today I ordered a Loaded Hawk model and am looking forward to receiving it in mid September!
