My family is considering purchasing a GMC. I've heard mostly great, but a
few concerning things. Thought I'd ask the experts! :-)

1. We are looking at a '73 sequoia and '76 Eleganza II. A fellow who runs
a reputable GMC restoration company suggested a newby stay away from the
73's. Said vast improvements were made starting in '75. Thoughts?

2. The Sequoia does not have couch/bunks. Can those be installed?

3. Are there two different types of toilets? The same, in-the-know fellow
said recylcing toilets were put in some, but not many of the units, and
that most people who have them don't like them. Is this the "macerator"
I've seen in some posts?

4. Same guy told me it would take $60,000 to make a unit road worthy; that
all rubber parts, and there are many, need to be replaced and that if there
is rust, that would take $12000.

5. Any additional tips, suggestions, or thoughts?

Thanks so much! Stacy
