Liesure Travel Vans

I saw with interest the post asking folks with similar RV s to respond to the question how many of are there? I very seldom see anything about Liesure Travel Vans, specifically the Libero model which is on the Chevey chassis. Is that because Libero owners don't have anything to say or there just aren't that many of them? Obliged to hear from some of you.
  • I custom ordered my Libero Sept 2013, took delivery Jan 2014. It now have almost 100,000 miles. I'm presenting doing homework for my next unit. For now I can't find anything I like as much. My only negative and only recently is the corner bed surrounded practically by all 4 walls. This unit still looks very stylish, and I still get multiple people taking a second look and inquiring as such. It's been the best RV I've ever owned and would buy another simulator floorplan. I personally don't like the Unity or Wonder that LTV manufacture today.

    most of the conversation is about Unity model

    The Libero floor plan has been kind of left by the wayside in Leisure's scheme of things, with not a whole lot of change over the last few years. Now whether this is from lack of demand, or hard to get Chevy chassis from restricted GM production, can't say. I suspect it's both.
    I talked to a couple this last spring down in Florida that had just picked up a new one a couple days earlier that really loved their new Libero, (no issues found so far in 1000 miles), however I was astonished at what they paid for it which I thought was way excessive. But that's the Leisure Travel mystique working there I guess.
    Really nice looking coach.....

    There Sprinter based Models look very nice, probably the neatest NA C's I have seen. Possibly a toss up with Coachhouse
  • I wonder why LTV doesn't offer the Libero on an opfional Ford E350/E450 chassis .... that is, if the Chevy chassis is difficult to come by?

    The Libero looks like a sweet little rig. Great tank capacities. Just the right length for getting into just about any campsite. The Standard floor plan for it is a classic one and superb for two people. The outer shell design looks to be just about leakproof.

    The Libero a may be a close competitor to Coach House in features and design. A 4X4 version of the Libero could even turn out to be capable of some pretty decent off-pavement camping, for it's size.
