Hi Cris,
haven't seen any responses to you yet wrt price, and i certainly have no
idea. am glad to see that you're in OR, as if we can come to a price, i
will be driving up there in late May, and could avoid shipping. I think
i've seen one of these on, and it did look "official," but i hope not
*really* expensive. I do plan to be camping, but not really much off-road.
Even tho i'm 57 and disabled due to a lung condition, i'm capable of getting
into my Westi. Just thought the step might make it a little easier to get
some of my oxygen equipment up and in, and also be easier for my 14-y/o dog.
So, you don't really need to get a scanned image, unless you think it's in
your interest to open it up for bids, maybe.... I imagine someone will know
what the price range should be.
btw, i *still* haven't managed to figure out on what website I saw it --
some kind of classifieds, i think, from a whole list i found once and not
since. Can you tell me where it was?
Hoping to hear from you and that we can work out somethng helpful to both of us,
Gail
