First Time Buyers - Help Wanted
Hey everyone :) Me and my girlfriend have spent the last 2 1/2 years together (we both work from home) and have decided to dive into full time RVing. After initially looking at travel trailers, 5th...

X2 on what MM said but unlike him I'm keeping my Dynasty, hopefully for another 13 years. Back in 04 you had to buy fairly new to get four slides which for even halftime,really helps. IF I have to replace (heaven forbid), it would be with a 04-06 Dynasty or Executive in the $100K range or less... some of the best years from Monaco and for Diesel engines.
One of the reasons we love our Dynasty is how well we can boondock for a week without cutting back on anything... large tanks and plenty of nice options like an inverter that powers the home refer, even when traveling, NOT the generator. I wasted way too much money trying to keep my NoCold going because of misinformed posts like the one above. Home refrigerators only requires 100W when running which is less than half the time so two batteries and maybe 100W of solar is all that's needed for a home refer.
I love the Monaco RR10S chassis as 750-850 mile days are easy... YES even multiple ones. It gives you plenty of CCC (9000+) which for FTime comes in handy. DO NOT worry about finding a place to park a 40+' coach contrary to the naysayers... most of which DO NOT own a big rig and have NO idea where I can get it.
Must haves for FT: AquaHot, tag axle, home refer, Girrard awning, four slides, big tanks, LED lights and TVs.
I do not see the need for a bath and half floorplan which is about all you will find in newer 40+' DPs. They also have gotten very heavy... many with 365 tires on the front and even on the tag axle.
*PS: buy more MH than you think you need... ONE TIME. I learned that the expensive way.
