    Yep, another blogger

    Frank Enjoyed looking and reading your blog. The picture of Le Droppe's galley is awesome. You definitely cook and travel with style! Couple of questions: 1. Is that spice rack on the left shelf in the galley? Unique concept with the tins sideways in a rack. Where can I get one? 2...

    550 / 560 Looking To Buy

    Brian and Kristie We decided to purchase the 560 ultra SUV package for several reasons: 1. Wanted the height of the SUV package because we are both tall and liked the higher counter height and head room in the galley. 2. 560 model because we liked the couch option and potential for more space...

    Thanks for the support. Trying to think of all we need and I guess we just need to go out and camp! Problem is that the weather won't cooperate and when it does, I have to work! Planning on a trip to see my sister later this year in Grand Junction, CO. Will be trying some small trips around...

    Glasses (The kind you wear)

    Bob and I were not afraid to make any holes in our new 560. We added the plastic storage baskets in the galley area, got a corner wire rack and turned it on its side to keep things organized there too. Shelf liner to keep things from sliding around in the galley. Great ideas on the gallery...

    Making the bed

    So I am wondering. If you go in the camper for a rest, to sit in the couch, do you cover the bed with any other cover to keep it cleaner? Do you store your pillows at the foot end during the day? Sorry if this seems like a silly question. I think I had read in the past of someone who had had...

    Thanks for the help Michael. Bob is going to try setting it up again with your suggestions and see how it goes. We thought maybe part of the problem was the SUV height as the tent seemed a little short. Like your method of dealing with this. Thanks again Gina

    Side Tent Side Tent

    So we decided to try and setup the side tent. Doesn't seem to fit right. Maybe someone can help us with your wisdom? We have the 560 SUV version. The tent seems to be off the ground at the edge by the trailer. Followed all the directions. Is this normal for the SUV height? We did make the...

    Tow Vehicle Shopping

    Thanks so much for your reply. We are leaning to the Cherokee as the grand cherokee does such a great job but didn't want to spend that much again. We also bought the tow package on the grand. Good to hear the V6 is pulling well. Any trouble with the trans? there were some questions about this...

    Tow Vehicle Shopping

    I was wondering about getting a new Cherokee to tow our 560. I remember seeing a new cherokee at the CICO last year. If anyone tows with one of these new Cherokees, can you tell me how you like it? We already have a grand Cherokee and love it. Just wanted something smaller.
