    Arizona White Mountain Toy-In

    I could make it out with the family in the date range of March-June months don't know if a more solid date is in the works but that is just my two cents. :D

    On their website it says "our season is April thru October".....so I presume this to mean you plan on having this Toy-in rather soon???

    WELCOME!!!!!!! AWESOME SITE HUH??? :ThumbUp: I RESEARCHED THIS SITE BEFORE I BOUGHT MINE :)

    Thank you!!!

    So far, I started to go through and seal anywhere that needed to be sealled. The worst spot seems to be the the cab-over bed with dry rot, water damage. I went through and replaced all the damaged wood, re-seal, and it's ok now.

    -All appliances seem to work except the frig, I can't get the spark. It's the Norcold unit. I will search the forum but any hint would be appreciated

    -Black water valve leaks so I just bought an extension with a valve...quick fix for me, cost $23 bucks

    -Other minor issues here and there but so far it's great. I actually drive to work and park in the company lot...it fits

    -I have learned a lot so far from this forum. Great members here, pls. keep up the good work. I'll upload some pics as soon as I figure out how to.

    -Got to love Toyota reliability...read here: http://www.garagepar...alta/story1.htm

    Since April 2009 picked it up at a RV dealer in Las Vegas NV flew out on a Wednesday night did some light gambling and got picked up at the hotel in the morning and went to the Dealership to see the Mini. It was dusty and smelled a little funky but it was all in tact nothing a good cleaning couldn't fix. Drove it back to El Paso, TX with not one issue except maybe coming close to running out of gas a couple of times lol :Poster_oops: have loads of fun in it my boys 4yr &5yr love it. Since I have a love for motorcycles figured why not BLEND my two passions. :D

    dpstangfan93, that's a nice setup!

    How long have you had your mini?

    That is sooo awesome I have 91 Warrior it's great having a idea of what our rigs cost back in the day!!!

    :ThumbUp:

    For those who may be interested, here is the original window "sticker" for our '92 Winnebago Warrior. This, along with a plethora of other original documents, was kept in pristine condition in plastic sleeves inside the loose-leaf Winnebago Industries Motorhome Operations Manual.

    Flying to Buy a Rig

    My purchase started with me fishing around e-bay and I ran across a Westfalia, and I thought to myself ahhh that would be cool to purchase for local fishing trips. Then I stumbled accross some Toyota Minis, and I was like :ThumbUp: so that drew my ALL my attention to finding the right rig for me. I started researching in AUG 2008 and finally decided on a RIG out of LAS VEGAS NV. I figured I fly out get a little gambling in and drived my 91 Toyota Winnebago Warrior back to EL Paso, TX. I was leary at first to the notion of having mechanical failures along the road, but PREVIOUSLY OWNING Toyota pickups with the 22R engines in them and 4 Toyota 4Runners with the 3.0L engine in them I was pretty sure I was in good hands. I wouldn't have taken such a chance with any other make of Motorhome. Long story short the drivetrain is a pretty sure bet you are going to a good dependable vehicle it's other areas that you really have to have a keen eye on. Turns out the Salesman didn't do a very good job explaining the extras the RV had and that served to my advantage because the Warrior had about $2500 worth of goodies added to the unit from the previous owner so I feel blessed I choose my particular Mini. Picked it up with 75600 miles in April of 2009 and currently has 80300 rolling around the desert Southwest having loads of fun in it.

    I had a idea of having all my decals measured professionally by a local guy to have them taken off and redone in the same colors or like colors but with reflective material on the WINNEBAGO lettering and maybe the thinner lines. Just a thought but I think it would look cool and safe at the same time.... :ThumbUp: :ThumbUp:

    Would you have any info on the font used for the "WARRIOR" lettering on the side? Or perhaps a good image of it? The lettering on mine was removed when I bought it, it's tough to get it remade with no place to start....
