TM Sightings 2015
Here we are in a New Year once again! We started this thread many years ago, when there were only a few TMs on the road, and spotting one other than your own was an exciting event. Now that there are more, is it still true? Report 'em here!

While camping last week in the Big Bend region of Texas I saw a 3124KB in the Lajitas Resort last week. Owners said it was a 2006 model. We chatted for awhile. They had come down to Big Bend from Buena Vista, CO.

Spotted in Hatch, NM
On Sunday, January 25th we were having lunch at Sparky's as a TM turned the corner at 12:45 pm on Rte. 26 headed toward Rte 25. I didn't get a good look at either the TV or TM model. The TM had blue curtains and the TV was a dark color (green or blue) and could've been a Ford Explorer type. Our lunch stop in Hatch was a recommendation from the camp host in Truth or Consequences, NM. About an hour later we arrived at and are set up at Rock Hound State Park, NM.

Is your TM going to survive the snow storm that might come your way tonight?

We are in Deming, NM (Rock Hound State Park). But, our TM has survived several snowfalls in the past. Just make sure to remove the snow as soon as possible to prevent any damage.

6/8/15: US-395 South, Bridgeport CA.
We were parked and doing cellphone stuff, going home to Reno. A larger TM (maybe 3023, maybe 3124) passed the gas station parking lot we were in, entering the town from the Northwest. It was nice to see you!

2 in one day
On the way out of Yosemite yesterday, we stopped at the dump station in Upper Pines. We pulled in behind a 3124 (vs waiting for two of the "big boys" on the other side, who take forever to dump ). They were a nice couple from around the outskirts of the Fresno area.
Then, on the way home on Hwy 140, we saw another TM going east. It looked to be a smaller unit, maybe a 2619 or a 2720. I was focusing on the road so didn't really get a good look.

An Elkmont is camped across from us at Lake Vallecito. Saw a TM on the road near Fairplay CO. Couldn't tell what model.
