Heres my 18 year old darling. 36 Beaver Monterey with a stage 1 paint job.

We alternate between coastal runs in the summer and the dunes in the winter.

She just turned 30K this year and isn't really even broken in yet.

It's one of the few motorhomes thats all Cat, cat engine and genset.

Allison 6 speed with a pac brake on a 4 bag chassis turning 22.5's

Like Han Solo- Ive made a lot of special modifications myself......

she's little old, but so am I.....

2010 35' Fleetwood bunkhouse.22.5 wheels so an upgraded suspension for a gasser and always garaged. 9000 mi and drives better than I thought it would. Pretty much has everything including satellite TV with three interior TVs and hook ups for one exterior I just never put one in. We try to use it at least once a month!

Yes it is a Liberty,it has cruise airs and I had them on my last 3 coaches and I have a couple of spares as well as 5 compressors that I purchased off ebay.I like bus air or as the bus guys call it OTR air and Prevost only puts it on 1 and 2 slide coaches,most don't understand that the salon slide is 17 feet long and slides 36 inches and the bedroom is 10 feet and slides 24 inches so a 2 slide is right for me because I can get OTR air and cruise airs.I have had 4 coaches all with OTR and cruise airs,if the cruise airs are tuned up I can maintain 70 inside parked on asphalt on a 105 day in the south without shade,but they all must be working just right.

What's something like that worth?

My folks had a Pevost for their first motorhome when Dad retired. I would borrow it from time to time. What a beautiful rig they really are. He had one rule, dump the tanks and fill it up before you return it to the hanger. I came in late one night and just parked it. My dad said no problem, give me your credit card and I will take care of it for you. My Dad was good that way. He stopped by the office the next morning and grabbed my card. He returned my card the next day and as he was leaving he said " that's a good card, I dumped it, filled it, put on new tires and took your Mother to lunch while they put the tires on". A little wave over his shoulder as he left. Never did that again.:yikes

GoFly - Ouch, that must have been a pretty penny!

We have a toy hauler again, a 28ibg, we custom ordered it for the river and desert use... Bigger tanks, Solar, 50 amp, drivers side slide, everything! We love it, after having toy haulers, travel trailers, and a Class A motorhome this works the best for us... We will go back to a Class A after the kids and all of a million of their friends slow down going camping with us... Actually we will probably just keep this and add a used class a...

Thanks, we were close on pulling the trigger on a 5th wheel but didn't want to lose the bed and shell on the truck for the dogs... This one is just big enough to fit everything and does great on long trips dry camping too. Having the solar makes a big difference dry camping! Wish it had a little more storage but that is our only complaint. The little slide make a big difference too.

Here's our first trailer we got back in Oct. Flagstaff 26RL by Forest River. So far we love it. All the bells and whistles. I think we'll have it maybe another year, then we'll upgrade to a Diesel Super C so we can tie the boat too!
