Description

Ready for Off-grid Living

We have owned this coach since February of 2013 when it had just over 40,000 miles, it now has 98,862 miles. We purchased it through a broker who got it from the original owner based on the paperwork we have from the original purchase. I have records of all service stored in electronic form and I have all the original owners manuals.

Every year we have taken a long trip covering almost every state in the lower 48. (see map on front driver side slide) For the last 3 years our trips have included weeks of off-grid / boon-dock style camping. Our kids are grown now so we are selling to take a break from RV'ing for a few years. This coach is very well suited for camping off the beaten path or off-grid living. With water treatment and advanced tank level sensors that actually show the real level and more.

Main Specs
360 HP 8.3 ISC Cummins Motor
3000 Alison Automatic Transmission
Onan 8000 KW quiet diesel generator, 3125 hours, last professional service at 3095 with monthly exercise

I have attached a picture with a list of all the upgrades we have made over the years including items like 6 kwh of Battleborn LiON batteries and Victron Inverter and 1600 watts of Solar. Items in the picture with a RED dollar value can easily be removed from the RV and thus reduce the price.

The RV chassis is in great condition with Engine/Transmission professionally serviced every year. Last service in October 2021. We have never had an issue with the main engine / transmission. With less than 100K miles the Cummins/Allison drivetrain, it has many many more miles to go.

I have reduced the price from the "book value" in consideration of some items in need of repair as follows

  • front of RV has a diamond shield film from the factory that is discolored. This is a defect known for many RVs of this timeframe. The solution is to get it replaced for $3000 or so or get an RV Bra for the front for under $1000
  • some de-lamination in a few sections of the outside walls, a few years back we visited the factory and we were advised it was common and not to a point it needed repair
  • carpet is showing its age and if we were to keep the RV we would probably remove and replace with vinyl plank or similar flooring throughout
  • in a few places the wallpaper needs some TLC
