Search the photo site for keyword "slideout" you will find some additional slideouts. one of a rear slideout wwith an interior shot and some of Manny's but no interior pics of his. There is another one with a rear slideout but I can not find it.

one thing
everyone I have talked to that has done slide-outs on a GMC, say, I WOULD
NOT DO IT AGAIN.
Manny does anything (because he can;>)
and JimB said it was tough ( he did two on one coach)
the slide out the back,guy, still has leaks, n, stuff
I don't want to speak for them, so you can ask them, but I don't think any
will recommend doing a slide-out with out a lot of thought about the effort
required, chassis modifications, drive motors, leaks, covers, etc.
good luck, but this is a big deal

Gene & others,
You are right, it really comes down to why you wanna do it. The right answer is "because I want to". If you ask is it an economical move I would tell you to run away. If it is to get more room in your coach I would say pack lighter. If it's to have something no one else has be prepared to pay to have it.
We mounted the entry door in the slide-- not even the Prevost boys are that nutty! The coach ended up being 11' wide "Ewak hut" fully deployed, it was cool but you had to be a short guy to feel comfortable which the guy we built it for was. Now the coach is in Kentucky and the new owner is excited to "have" something like that so I would say he is a good fit for it.
If you guys are just batting the idea around for fun, I would say thats the best place to keep it. Been there, done that, have the scars to prove it!
Cost--- if you have to ask, trust me it will cost too much! Manny told me that after finishing his, I think I brought that question to a new level!
