Carleton

Today it was misty and cold about 50 to 55*
Prior to that, we had about a week of 65 to 70* temps with sun....why,
comin' for a visit ?? <VBG> Remember, any time of the day or night if
you're in your GMC...always welcome!

I was stuck here for the winter, but I'll be getting out of town early this
Fall....

hi out there, we are just in the r`process of looking for a good used gmc motorcoach, if anyone has suggestions as to what NOT TO BuY! we would be interested. or if there are good suggestions also would like to hear. the ones we are going to look at this week end are 26 ft. royale but hasnt been driven for a few years. we are not mechanically inclined, do most mechanics have the ability to work on the big olds, engines? what danger areas would you suggest we be aware of. we know we would have to upgrade if we buy an older one, but need a little steering, in the right direction, in our looking skills. Any advice you may have would be very appreciated. thanks, the coulsons

My 2 cents worth........


Let this Forum know where you live and where the coach is.

If there is an owner close by chances are they will look at the coach with
you.

Find one you like at a price you can afford.

It is really a question of what you like, interior arrangements, upgrades,
etc.


You can expect lots of help and opinions from the folks on the board.

Cheers,

If you live near one of the specialists, then you could almost buy any GMC and just open your checkbook.

I live in Fremont,CA and have some mechanical skill. Jim Kanamota's Applied GMC is a fantastic resource for me!

I had assembled Bruce's work and put it in a PowerPoint presentation. It was
at GMCEast.com for a while. I took that page off the web several months ago.
If you want the PP Preso I can send it to you when I'm back in Louisville in
a few days. Currently I'm in Montgomery.
