New gas coaches!

Well, I picked up my DP yesterday after taking it in to have the rear hydraulic leveling jacks finally removed. I had an air system custom installed last July at HWH factory in Moscow, Iowa. Couldn't get the jacks out without removing the rear wheels and tires from coach!

Decided to look at a few brand new Gas coaches. A 2015 Challenger MSRP of $165,000 selling for $134,000.

As soon as I looked around I saw a large puddle of water right in front of the driver seat, not a great incentive for a purchase. It had just rained a couple of days before. Think I'll pass on that one.

    Not sure what the point of the post is. Are you saying all new gas coaches have leaks or that there aren't any on new or used DP's?

    Or maybe the guy that sat in the seat before got real excited about the possibility of owning a new motorhome. :)

    Yep, all gassers leak when it rains, they don't pull up grades well either. Junk

    I disagree.. my gasser does not lead when it rains less I leave the fantastic fan open (though I will admit to doing some home improvements on a couple of slide outs that had issues, they did not leak when retracted).

    And before the engine went BOOM, it climbed hills just fine. Only one hill did it ever fail to get to the top of... The one where BOOM happened. and that was due to other issues. not the grade.

    I am convinced some folks left their sense of humor in their other pants.

    I know. I don't think others did.
