Hey all,
I like the moss green on this one too, especially the interior.
It is way calmer than the red / orange interior of the number 1 unit I asked about before, but I like that one, too.
Although the price on this one is way up in the sky - RIDICULOUS, I think. What do you think ?

PS: Jerry Work, thank you for extensive explanation. It is a good guide to turn into an Excel sheet to take along when looking at a coach.
I think I made one a year ago - See if I can still find it and add your points.

It might be worth having someone look at it. Price is really hard to judge. Some $14-18K coaches are a good deal. I paid $9 for mine a few years back. I won't discourage the new here by telling you what I actually have it in now but to make it run the way I want it to run, stop like I want it to stop costs money and for me, time.. But the good news is it is way cheaper than going out and getting a new or near new Big Box. And if the Big Box is not new it will have some "deferred" maintenance as well. But when you get done with the Big Box you have, well, a big box. With the GMC you will have a sleek machine that will turn heads and make folks come to look when you are getting gas.

That one appears to have been originally listed by Bethune on August 11, 2014, so another older listing.

Dominik,
Sorry Mate, I'm going to disagree with regarding the price IF the following can be proven:
1) One owner
2) Original Mileage of 54,443
3) Stored inside
If this GMC REALLY IS a one owner coach, the mileage REALLY IS that low and that it REALLY WAS stored inside I reckon it REALLY IS
worth a hell of a lot more than some coach that you have no provenance for!
HOWEVER, if the coach has been garaged in Vermont for it's whole life it is MOST important to check the condition of the frame for
rust especially around the rear bogies and up front near the start battery and on both sides of the frame around the lower A frame
mounting points.

"Stored Inside" in Vermont usually means "Parked in a musty old barn with dirt floors and smelling of cow shit".
