Yeah, my Royale participated in a photoshoot of the Royale's interior. It made the cut; it's the shot looking forward, blue dash.

You learn that you'd best not believe what reporters whisper in your ear about their articles. This guy did have street-cred, though, coming off the Coke article.
The Royale was at the right place at the right time, and JimB had a good press-n-photo guy (Brian) on staff, too. Brian and I spent a half-day putting the coach back together for the shoot. JimB, Brian, & I made a deliberate decision to show off interiors and cabinetry rather than gee-whiz suspension upgrades in order to have the article appeal to the ladies rather than grease-monkeys. We figured if the breed is to continue, mama has to like it.

Assuming that Koscs gets even more interest, I'm going to propose a 3rd article on the upgrades. With the exception of the EV6010, the Royale has just about everything new known to us -other than Manny's diesel- and the suspension is clean & spiffy. Worth a shot, IMO.

Well... Internet famous isn't quite as impressive as Real famous. You
know... like a Kardashian, for instance.
Well I'm not a fan of KimK or the rest of her clan. However she is sure a lot easier on the eyes than RobM. <grin> Although I find RobM to be much more valuable than the pop culture celebrities.

RC,
Sorta on topic: Kerry, Stick, and I visited the GMC Coop week before last
and took a good look at your 26'. VERY nice -- one of the best I've seen
come out of the Coop & I've been in & out of there since '98.
Stop by when you head home with it -- we're only 32 miles W. of I-75 & have
fully hookups+ available.

Thanks, Ken! We may leave it in FL for a few months while we get the hang of this rv-ing & club stuff.
As for the sequel article on upgrades, I haven't heard back.
