Our first MH was a Santara, with a diesel engine and a gas generator. Weird combo I know. Loved it. The dash a/c never worked right but the house air was fine. It had that old 200 or 220 Cummins engine. You had to run hard going down hill to make it up the next one. We knew nothing about RVs or camping for that matter. Our first trip was to a local lake with 30 amp and the coach had 50 amp. I ended up cobbling a connector to get power that first night.
We had more fun in that old coach, just two kids doing what we figured was going to cost a lot of money (it did !!!) but the memories and stories are worth so much more than the money we spent.
Enjoy your first coach. . . but also do as we did, get a better one when you get the hang of things. Have FUN.
