What would you buy for a $175,000?

From what I’ve learned from you about buying a used coach is nothing is more important than the chassis and the best chassis is the semi-monocoque because of its strength and rigidity! I also understand that an aluminum/metal exterior is also the best.

Its my understanding that both of these things are available on the Monaco and Country Coach in the years I’m looking for. I have to stay with a coach that is no more than 10 years old because I’ll need to finance part of it.

I’m looking for;

• 2005 to 2010
• 45’ Motorhome
• Bath and a half
• Two or more slides
• King sized bed or Queen

What do you think and I'd be happy to hear other recommendations you have?

Thanks for your help,

Therein lies one of the problems with asking for opinions; everybody doesn't agree with what you want!
First, IMO I do not need nor do I want a 40+ foot motorhome. It just won't fit in many of the places I want to go!
Second, DW and I just don't NEED a bath and a half.
Third, IMO the ideal coach will be 11 years old or older, so that I can put PERMANENT license plates on it and never have to renew the registration as long as I own it!
Fourth, IMO one slide is sufficient.
IMO, the ideal coach would be 32 to 34 feet long, diesel pusher, Cummins, with 5000 lbs. minimum towing capacity. IF the plan was for full-timing, it could be as much as 36 feet long, with 10K towing capacity, and a washer/dryer combo installed.
