Awesome, congrats. Would love to see a link to the model. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent. |

That looks very nice. It is a little smaller than I had assumed but I am sure it is much easier to tow, Is it about the same size as the last one? At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent. |

| petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | Those slide outs make a huge difference in an RV. I've considered another Motor Coach from time to time, used, first thing is, how many slides? It's like a boat, you can and 2 ft. in length and it means little to nothing in either a rv or a boat, but add 2 ft. to the beam of the boat and it's a huge difference in several ways. In an RV, just breaking up the "4 walls" does a lot to your peace of mind if you are going to be spending much time inside. Anyway, good on ya. Is that just a 22 Ft.? I towed one of those to Alaska and half way back. Hardly notice it's back there. But for those that must tow a 12-18k pounder, they notice every incline, every side wind. Even notice the price of fuel. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

Same length, 23 feet Old one had a smaller side out, just the dinette This is a much larger side out with both dinette and couch. Its actually a little heavier due to the larger side out. All packed and full, towing about 4500 pounds Truck rated for 7500 pounds I call them side outs because they don't slide If motor breaks or stops, they don't budge Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

Congrats on the new home! Every time I look at the cost of one of these I am stunned how inexpensive they are. Less than a well appointed mid size SUV. I guess the ‘money’ in a car is in its engine, which your RV doesn’t have. Does it come with a mattress, or do you buy one separately? |
