John Beaver has been offered an Onan Marquis Gold 7000 to go in his 26'.
We haven't yet measured the compartment, but the numbers he has look too
big to me. Besides that, he tells me that for service the cover must be
LIFTED off. Even at the bargain price, it may not be a good deal, IMHO.

Does anyone have experience with this model or have installed one in a GMC?

Ken, the Kingsley I sold Rob had an 6K Emerald mounted sideways ON SLIDES. Given what John has already done to his coach, I'd expect he could enlarge the box so it will fit.

If memory serves, they did take the top off... I put one in a remote trcuk some years back. With a bit of work, you could section the cover so the back stayed on and the top, sides, and front slid off. Whether that would gain access to everything you need to see, I dunno, you'll have to look.
