Re: Itasca Latitude Rear gas Pusher. Opinions
Anyone who says the UFO has an overheating problem do not know what they are talking about. I have a UFO and have put over 57K on it in some of the hottest summers on record and have no overheating issues. Great chassis and if you are so inclined it would be a great purchase.

Campin10; I own a Holiday Rambler 38PLT which is the sister to the coach you are looking at. We have some 40K miles on coach and have never experienced an overheating issue. We travel back and forth from Houston to California a lot in summer with no issues. One item worth noting is the cable slide system on the coach you are looking at may need some work. It seems that Monaco used the wrong size standoffs for cables which causes cable fraying and seperation. There is a fix for the problem which consists of new standoffs about 1/2" longer and problem is solved. As for the UFO chassis, you will not be sorry if you decide to purchase. It has all the benefits of rear engine diesel with respect to being quiet and responsive and you can do the maintenance yourself if you want. As for parts, it is not an issue. All components are made by people who still are in business and if you search out you will find multiple sources for obtaining them. Cannot say enough good things about the UFO chassis as well as the Monaco built coach. Regards885Views0likes0Comments
