We did narrow it down to some fantastic pricing. Depending on which model, $89K for new 24V. I (as we women can do) had decision paralysis. I hated the thought of paying that much and really having nowhere to put a coffee pot or any kitchen appliances. While continuing to browse, we visited a dealership close by and the owner had his personal coach for sale with only 7K miles on it. My whole reason for wanting a 24' was the ability to park it at our home, anything larger was a no go. Loved the diesel pusher of course, room to do a cartwheel and a backflip and cook for Turkey Day.
I explained our storage dilemma. Owner said he had no plans to replace his coach in the foreseable future and we were welcome to have free parking in his locked and covered personal spot for as long as we needed. Done deal. We are in a 40' Allegro Bus for the time being and I just love it. Will work out really well for us this year, we have a lot of long trips and long stays planned out west. I won't be sweating where to put my laptop or how to comfortably watch TV.
I could see us potentially downsizing again as the long trips fall by the wayside, but for now with our back issues, those seats are like "sitting in a box of kittens", hahaha!!!
We did see the Axis as well. It was def much roomier and something we would consider too. I wish there was some way to just add a few feet to the Navion, I want to drive small, but live a little bigger. I guess no "perfect" coach. Just look for us at the gas pump for now, haha!! Good luck with your search!
