To put it succinctly... "the brain will absorb only what the seat will endure!"
Otherwise a well put together series of serious thoughts. From someone who has had RV's of one sort or another since the early 70's you can spend an awful lot of time agonizing over what you wish you had in your coach, try to hang on to the idea you are never going to have the "perfect" coach but you certainly can have the coach you can afford and the one you can live with. The soundest piece of advicee I am happy to pass along is... If you are buying a used coach that is on consignment...DO A TITLE SEARCH... just like you would if you were buying a house, I personally spent 18 months and a lot of legal fees because I didn't. It's a very long story but thanks to some confusion with the motor vehicle folks they issued me a title when the souuldn't have and I RAN to an out of state dealer and traded before they discovered their error... and then a month later traded again... Just to distance myself from a nightmare. A word to the wise should be sufficient....... You're Wellcome!!!!! One last word ... the dealership is now closed down the partners are in jail and they took some forty customers to the cleaners. This was in Leesburg Florida
