The motorhome that Charles Kuralt used in the series is at the Ford Museum in Dearborn. He and his crew never slept in it as it was for film equipment and for producing the show (at least that's what it said on the plaque).:B

I didn't say that you said that they slept in it, I was just saying what I saw at the museum. :R

Yep, an FMC. The air conditioning was in the arch over the middle of the coach. Independent rear suspension. Looks like one of the commercial ones. GMC had a commercial version of their Flying Banana.
