Today we GO LIVE with the new forum. As you'll see the big red button on the right, it links to the new forum. I tell you this has been a MAJOR undertaking for me. Having been on several forums, I've always wondered HOW they made those forums. Well, now I know. Sometimes, it's ok to NOT know everything. haha<br />Anyway, I've learned a lot. And it looks to be promising as to how many members we will soon have on the forum.<br />To answer a big question: No, I am not obsessed with North Trails. I am was taken with the quality of the unit as we walked in it for the first time. And after towing it, my affection for it only grew larger and larger. I built this place to exchange information and media in particular to the world. This is a brand new unit and there, currently, are not a lot of visual reference out there for potential owners to see.<br />You will notice a change in the BLOG itself. It is essentially a portal now and more of a business center. The blog will have business type highlights. It is where people can come get business information and links There will be ads on the BLOG ONLY..It is starting with Kerry West RV in Dexter, MO. being front and center. Kerry, thanks for your financial support of the forum.<br />(and personal thanks for being such a good dealer, they are far and few between now.)<br />The new forum will be for personal insights, conversations and postings about the North Trail.<br />It is only for North Trail travel trailer owners or those with units on order as described in the FAQ section.<br />So, I hope that you enjoy the forum, and the blog. A lot of work has went into developing it, it becomes a labor of love after about 8 pots of coffee of work. :)<br />My plans are to get this up and running with a good foundation. Then, to enjoy the REAL camping life.<br />I am fortunate to have two very conscientious mods; Jennifer and Paul. Thank you both for pitching in here. I feel sure you will ensure the ship is run well.<br />Thanks to Bryan at Heartland for agreeing to answer factory questions on the forum. There is nothing that he doesn't know about Heartland. Should there be something that is challenging to him, he will find the answer. One on One factory support is one reason I purchased this unit. There is not a lot of micro-managing going on that I see.<br />Everyone have a blessed day!<br />Please email me if you have any questions.<br /><br /></span></span></span></strong><strong></strong></span></div><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 102, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" ><br />mark </span><br /></span>owner </strong><a href="http://www.thenorthtrailers.com/"><span style="color: rgb(0, 102, 0);"><strong>thenorthtrailers.com</strong></span></a></span></div>Marknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3184172680174598105.post-72023409198684638472008-02-29T11:43:00.000-06:002008-03-03T10:45:13.551-06:00<div align="center"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:180%;"><strong><span style="COLOR: rgb(255,0,0)"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"><span style="font-family:lucida grande;"><span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline"></span></span><span style="font-family:lucida grande;"><a style="COLOR: rgb(0,102,0)" href="http://northtrailchat.blogspot.com/"></a></span></span></span></strong></span><strong><span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="COLOR: rgb(51,102,102);font-family:trebuchet ms;" ><u><br /><span style="font-size:180%;">COMING MARCH 8TH</span><br /></u></span></span></strong></div><div style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold" align="center"><span style="font-size:100%;"><strong><span style="COLOR: rgb(255,0,0);font-family:Trebuchet MS;" ><span style="COLOR: rgb(255,0,0);font-family:georgia;" >North trailers forums GO LIVE!</span><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"> </span><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"></span></span></strong></span><span style="font-size:100%;"><strong><span style="COLOR: rgb(255,0,0);font-family:Trebuchet MS;" ><span style="COLOR: rgb(255,0,0);font-family:georgia;" >North trailers forums GO LIVE!</span><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"> </span></span></strong></span><span style="font-size:100%;"><strong><span style="COLOR: rgb(255,0,0);font-family:Trebuchet MS;" ><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"></span></span></strong></span></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,102,0);font-family:Trebuchet MS;" >The blog will stay as is, but because of so many North Trail owners enjoying communicating on here, we will migrate our conversations to a forum.
