- slickrock_steveExplorerHave a 1972 El Dorado. Bought used in 2010, and redid in 2014!
Took it on a 7000 mile trip last spring to Utah, Wyoming, South Dakota, Montana, including Yellowstone, the Tetons, and then to Washington, and Oregon, then down the California coast to home in the desert of So. Calif. - Ramblin__RalphExplorerI bought my 2001 Lance 845 in late 2005 from the first owner. Have put 95K+ miles on it, by traveling 6 months a year. Took it to the factory a couple of years ago for some wood rot repair between the walls. Fridge works great, but pilot does out sometimes when driving. For some reason, sometimes won't start right back up, either. Have to wait an hour or so.
I love it!! However, I doubt I'll live long enough to have it for 20 years. :) - VTLeeExplorerI bought a new 1993 Sunline. It was the last TC Sunline made. Still have it, all original and everything works.
- GrodymanExplorerI don't even want to think about how many rv's and trucks I have had in that period........congratulations
Gman - macdale4ExplorerWe have a 1998 Lance 945 that we wouldn't trade for the world.
- bighonkinf350ExplorerBought our 2000 Lance 1030 in May 2004 from private seller. Don't plan on getting rid of it any time soon. Many road trips,most recent was to Yellowstone N.P. in Sept.
Try to keep it clean & maintained. So far,so good. - gmc88ExplorerMy lance is June 1994. Everything works and is original. Recently upgraded to electric jacks. It should last till I cant drive anymore. It is a squire 4000. Can tow without an extension.

Congratulations. I do have a couple of questions? Did you ever have to replace your roof,and have you had to replace your frig.My Lance will be 6 years old and just wondering how long things last.
Had to fix a 4" hole in the roof when a big pine branch came down on it like a lawn dart. My roof is aluminum; me thinks it will out last it's owner.
The Dometic frig is still working fine (except for the pilot blowing out going down the highway, never could fix that). I am surprised it is still working; the frig in our last travel trailer lasted about 8 years before it started leaking ammonia.
