This page I wrote for my old rv website RVforSaleGuide.com before developing the Vanabode as the best travel vehicle for cheap easy long term road trips. People still like big rv's despite the much greater cost and trouble to operate, so here's what I know about them.

Additional reasons why this motorhome is a fantastic deal. Quality - I insisted on getting as close to the "conversion coach" quality and durability as I could afford, thus the diesel engine mated to an Allison automatic transmission sitting on an OshKosh chassis, and full fiberglass exterior (except the roof). Fuel Economy - I have the absolute best fuel mileage you can get in a live aboard coach with the 6 cylinder 190 HP Cummins diesel engine, one of the best ever made. It has been perfect, never overheating even in arduous mountain climbing and 110 degree Las Vegas desert heat. Example of one of our last big trips was 31 days, 7,980 miles, and we averaged 10.6 mpg pulling a Toyota Corolla on a tow dolly. VIEW - The Class A has a nice expansive windshield area enabling panoramic views. I installed a wrap around couch that runs all the way to the dash and since we have a "slanted" front rather than a "flat nose" we can literally lay up there and stare straight UP at the big starry night sky. Safety - except for the conversion buses Class A's are the safest for driving of the RV platforms. They also offer the advantage over trailers and fifth wheels of being able to walk up to the drivers seat, turn the key and and drive away without going outside if danger presents itself when parked. Resale - I don't like the overall negativity associated with living in a "trailer" which at times affects the resale value of fifth wheels and travel trailers. Class A's are simply more prestigious as live aboards. We are selling the RV because we are testing a Class B for use in California. NOTE: there is full leather wrap around seating from living room into passenger dash area, see picture 2 above, kayak in picture is not included.

Negatives - List of possible negatives associated with our RV. Kayak and tow dolly have been sold. Front passenger high back seat has been removed and replaced with custom leather wrap around couches. You can still sit up front and enjoy the view it's actually more fun, just not in a typical seat, see pictures above. There is an approximate 12" hairline crack in lower front windshield, it does NOT obstruct the view nor can you feel the crack from the inside or outside. It is minor and does not impact the use of the motorhome.

History - we have lived/traveled full time in motorhome for 3+ years. It is extremely low maintenance, gets great fuel mileage, is very dependable, and has tons of options at a bargain price. The interior is nearly flawless. We have traveled through 24+ states in mountainous driving with no difficulties even pulling a tow vehicle.

LOCATION - Information on where RV is located: I am storing the Motorhome in AAAABCO storage.

AAAABCO phone number is 333-333-XXXX Do NOT call them for RV info as they will not know what you are talking about and do not get into discussions about their new address "galleria" because they are going through hell about this. Actual address is 975 Stufflebeam Ave Henderson, NV 89015 now changed to "galleria" but NOT showing this way on any map.
