Even without the $500,000 price tag, it's not to my liking, but everyone
should take a look:

The coach is in the RV/Manufactured Housing hall of fame museum in Elkhart.

It’s horribly unbalanced (washer and dryer on the same side of the coach), and the owners didn’t bring it to anyone who would have identified the problem.

It’s one heck of a tax write off, though. Charitable donations.

I got up close and personal with this coach at the convention in Texas. The only good thing I can say is that the workmanship of the fiberglass is very good. As far as that goes, sticking a "Silverado" nose on a GMC "Because you like it" may not be one of the worst decisions that they made, but it is sure a close tie. I could go on with my criticism, but I will not waste my time and bandwidth.

Ken,
Good to read another posting from you!

All that money so they could do their laundry in the coach. But where do they sleep?

Someone once said "those people have more money than brains".
