DW and I set out to go to orlando and stopped in ocala to visit my Sis and also Gary and Nancy. Long story short we found the Coach we wanted at the Price we were willing to pay.

Now we are just waiting on PDI and closing.

The Coach is a 2004 Fleetwood Revolution 40c with 14,000 miles and all the service records. The interior is Immaculate and only found one scratch on the outside.

All service on chassis was done yesterday, new fluids and filters. So BIG MAMA is ready to roll! And the best part is it was real close to NADA low!

Hopefully before noon tomorrow we can be rolling down to see Seilerbird and Catblaster!!
 
Take it for a test drive before you go a distance. Dealerships rarely do what they say, and your rig will have bugs that will need attention. I bought my 2011 Southwind with 4,800 muiles. It took a full six months to work out all the problems. Don't be afraid to go over your salesman's head. I went right to the top of the chain before I got results. Good luck, and happy traveling.
 
We have run it to St. Cloud and all is well! Found a couple of minor issues repairs made, all simple stuff.

Just had Dinner with Seilerbird and Catblaster ( Will and Jane)  It was a great Mini-Rally.

I found that it does have the fleetwood fueling issue, will have to check the vent hoses for bellies. Other than that we couldn't be happier!

Can you explain that? I'll be looking at a bounder 35E. The Queen loves the floor plan.
St. Cloud, MN ? Any chance you'll be down to the twin cities? I'll buy ya a beer.....  :)
 
I gotta tell you CaptSteve is a thief. We went out to dinner tonight and I told the waitress to bring me the check. At the end of the meal I look up and Steve is signing the credit card bill. Stole it away from me when I wasn't looking. :'(

Bob-
I believe the fueling issue he is referring to is a venting problem that causes the fuel pump handle to think its overflowing and shut off repeatedly, making for a very slow 80 or 90 gallon fill up.  I'm not sure, but I think it may only be a problem with diesel.

Pretty sure he is referring to St. Cloud FL. I will let you buy me a Coke next time I'm in the cities.
 
Beautiful RV..it even has the "new RV smell" still in it. Glad we got to meet you and Trina. Thanks for dinner. :D

Maybe next time we get Tom to eat the "swamp Platter" Gator, frog legs and catfish.
