    2 newbies!

    Greetings! As I type this we are heading back to MN from AZ where we just picked up our new (to us) dynamax Isata 4. Can’t wait to enjoy life on the road! Does anyone have good hints for making the bed in the slide out? Very limited space on the sides does not make it an easy task!
