15 years ago and 180,000 miles later our Olefin outdoor carpet is still looking good and soft. We clean it with Folex (Home Depot) Mary and I take our shoes off at the door, so we are barefoot inside the coach. The carpet is put down just like a home with a underneath carpet layer. I have also painted the underside with a quite insulator with cuts down on the noise. We vacuum the carpet before and after each Folex cleaning.

We have area rugs from Camping World over our vynel covered floors that looks like wood. We have replaced those rugs every five years or roughly every 50,000 miles when the coach goes in for its reliability upgrade.

I just joined GMCnet and don’t know how to respond to your question.

Hi Larry

Chuck's been a GMCer for many years. He's got a dynomite lil 230 with some
really cool modifications. I toured it at a GMCWS Albuquerque Roundup in
2003. I think it's a '73 or '74.

He hasn't got much time to hang around the computer.
