It's official...our new Hawk was delivered LATE Thursday night. This forum has been so helpful when we were initially evaluating the merits of acquiring a FWC. Additionally, I can't say enough good about Stan @ FWC. Buying something like this sight unseen, well, for me, it was a leap of faith but Stan was great to work with.
Getting the Hawk delivered to Boise was interesting. Stan called and said we could get it delivered but it would have to be transported to the Riverside CA facility, then travel to Calgary Canada with three Six-Pack campers, then back down to Boise. It was a day late due to weather in Canada, the delay about killed me. The driver/installer from FWC really made an extra effort to get to Boise and not require me to wait a second day. By the time the install was completed it was after 11:00 pm...kudo's to Kirk for working overtime!!! These guys are great!
Even though I've only had possession for a couple of days I've gone over the fit and finish in detail. I'm extremely pleased with FWC's quality of the workmanship, even the bottom of the drawers are rounded and sanded. All the grooves and joints are matched, no gaps or no cracks, compared to traditional RV workmanship....there is no comparison!
Based on comments from this forum we decided to order the Hawk without the standard Ice Box or Refridgerator so we could have additional storage options. I was a little unsure how the look and functionality would turn out but once I saw the finished product I was pleased with the results, and, the increase in valuable storage capacity is significant.
We can't wait to get our gear moved in and head out on it's maiden voyage. Thanks again everyone for contributing your knowledge and experience to this forum.
