I'm a big Vixen fan as well. If your interested follow the link, below, to
see pictures of my former 1989 Vixen 21 SE motorhome. We enjoyed traveling
and camping in it for 4 years, but decided we wanted something bigger, and
equally as cool. No contest the GMC was the choice. There is nothing out
there of it's size or near it that compares - but of course you all new
that.
