Hi Mrhdvrod,
Well, that Rushmore is certainly beautiful and looks more comfortable than the V-Rod. I know what you mean about the bugs! But the trade-off for more riding time in Florida versus Michigan is probably worth it.
I’m glad you took the time to analyze things as part of your personal value equation to help guide you through your decision making process. Sometimes it’s as simple as a pros/cons list on a legal pad.
Congratulations on your new mattress! As you know, SleepEZ is a member of this site which means that I think very highly of them and that I believe that they compete well with the best in the industry in terms of their quality, value, service, knowledge, and transparency. They are extremely knowledgeable about latex and different configurations, especially as to how they compare to brands like Savvy Rest, so I hope the configuration you’ve chosen will be an acceptable approximation.
I’ll look forward to your comments about your new mattress once you’ve had a chance to sleep on it for a while. Hopefully it will provide some nice comfort after a nice long ride.
Phoenix
