2000 Damon Escaper DP

We're considering buying a 2000 Damon Escaper DP, up till now we have owned a couple of class A gassers. Can anyone offer pros & cons
  • Here is the link to the Damon forum http://www.irv2.com/forums/f121/rum
  • We own a 2004 Escaper and are very happy with it. We have had it for 2-1/2 years and have put 17,000 miles one it. The first thing we did was change out the old sidewall cracked Michelin tires. We replaced them with Toyo's. The coach is on a Freightliner chassis and has a Cat 3126E engine.

    We really love our coach. We have driven from Florida to New York twice. Our routes have taken us through the Blue Ridge mountains, Tennessee, West Virginia. We tow a 2004 Buick Rendezvous that weighs in at 4200 lbs. The 330 HP of the CAT has had no problems climbing the mountains.

    If you are getting a good deal, go for it.
  • Thanks for the link. My next stop, and I'm happy to hear about your happiness with your 04. We took the deal, we did good on price, allowing us to give a little TLC. Thanks again for all of your comments
  • Congratulations. I have a 2000 Damon Ultrasport that I bought new and it has been excellent. Mine is one step below the Escaper and I have no complaints.
