What DP would you buy for $80/M cash

It's a lot to take in isn't it? It's a brain freeze sometimes and I wonder how many folks just say "Nope too much for me"? A lot of stuff to think about and a lot of money if you get it wrong. It can be a lot of money if you get it right for that matter!

Maybe that's why people go the gas direction, much less money on the line for sure. May also be why coach builders are making some very nice gassers these days!

please, please, stress the importance of the cargo carrying capacity. that is something that cannot be corrected. it is what it is. like I said before, on our first coach which was gas, we had less than 100 lbs available on the front axle after we got into the front seats. 190 pounds and 145 pounds per person respectively. You might have plenty of ccc across the whole coach but maybe not on the corner or axle where you want to put your "stuff". Also the older diesel coaches will likely have a 10,000 hitch where SOME of the gas coaches will only have a 5,000 hitch rating.

You can replace flooring, televisions, refrigerators, water heaters, etc. but you cannot increase the basic frame and sizing of the braking system, towing capacity, and the rest of the skeleton of a coach.

Same with that Newmar, nice!

That's a good looking coach 2chiefs and a 2004 to boot!

I think you have pushed him towards a gasser. He can get a newer coach that costs less to fix. He also likes the idea of the newer electronics. We have a dealer not far from here and we'll go down and take a look in the morning. You're right he needs some first hand looks and maybe even drive a couple. When we first started this conversation I wasn't sure of his interest but he's really into it so tomorrow it is. Thanks again one and all.

here is one $74,995
