Coach?

We have a Country Coach

The real truth is that the person who drives up in the 1.6 million dollar Prevost-conversion Coach,..........he and I don't have much in common, not much to talk about. Therefore, I think he's a snob,.....:B:B:B

There are always going to be those who think their Black Water Tank doesn't stink. That's life. Call your RV whatever you want to call it. After all you bought it.

All kidding aside, my DW and I were at a campground in NC 2 years ago. We got up early on our second day there to discover a big black prevost in the slot next to ours. I thought this isn't going to be much fun at all. That thing is a MONSTER.

Well, after breakfast we went outside and a really nice young man was outside putting out chairs. I said "Good Morning" and he immediatley walked over and started to tell me how nice my 10 year old m/h looked and how nice I kept it.
It started to dawn on me that I knew this guy but I wasn;t going to go there. We talked for nearly 30 minutes and then the bell rang in my head. I knew who this guy was.

Long story short, the guy in the prevost played professional sports. He was on a long vacation with his wife and his 2 kids. My DW and I never let on to him that we knew who he was. They stayed next to us for 3 days. During that time we all talked and sat around each other's RV's drinking beer and playing with the kids and the dog.

So, not all million dollar RV owner's are snobs, arrogant or "Pretentious". Some are actually really great folks that happen to enjoy the finer things in life and can afford it. The ones that are "Pretentious" are the ones that worry about how they are going to make the next payment on their "Highway Beast".

coach only matters when ya are talking airline tickets :)

then who wants coach? Everyone would love first class!!

I use the term with clients to define between the coach and the chassis of any motorhome including Class A, B and C,s. I've never heard of that term being considered "pretentious". What would make it so.

'Some' of the people who drive them. Notice I said 'some', not all. I have met a few, but fortunately they are in the minority. We sold our class A. Don't know if we will buy an RV, trailer, camper or 'coach'. No matter what, we plan to enjoy and have lots of fun. Wishing everyone the best.

We've called each of our RVs "the camper".

My aunt and uncle visited us once with their 31' Airstream. I called it a camper and they were visibly distressed and said it was a "coach".

Lots of people call mine a "winnebago",.....but it's a Newmar.

I believe you are remembering the name plate for Fisher Body, GM's body division.



GMC had GM Truck and Coach Division which made chassis for GMC. Cadillac had their own chassis shop. Right next door was the Miller-Meteor Corp. They stamped panels for Cadillac and also produced panels for hearses and ambulances assembled under their name, using the Cadillac commercial chassis.

LOL!
