1996 Pleasure Way RV, Exel Wide Body Dodge Ram 3500.

Hello Folks,
Am contemplating buying a 1996 Pleasure Way RV, Exel Wide Body Dodge Ram 3500.
Would appreciate your advice as to its pros and cons (reliability, maintenance, etc.)
Thanks a million,
Ted.
  • We own a ‘97 PW and, after owning a Roadtrek, we find that we much prefer the PW. I agree with checking the overall condition and doing your research before the purchase. The Dodge van chassis is a proven item as is its dependability. I say “go for it”!
  • Pleasure Way is a quality manufacturer of Class B motorhomes or as some would say van conversions. As with any RV, before you buy check to see that the plumbing (flow and drain lines and holding tanks) works correctly, every appliance functions correctly, there are no water leaks, and the mechanical condition of the van is acceptable to you. The tires should not be more than 5 or 6 years old.
