After talking to some folks, I've learned that the 78 Royale has a huge king size bed area and a dry bath configuration. Other year (and 78s) have rear baths and twin beds. Still others have dry side bath and twins in the rear.

If we're going to own a GMC, it's going to have to have beds we can sleep comfortably in and a longer bed but still only full size width isn't going to cut it. Life is too short to be uncomfortable. The Coachman Royales seem like the best candidates.

Some questions about Royales:

1- What are the lengths of the twin beds? For easy of getting up during the night, two twins would work better than a queen/king because we wouldn't have to be crawling over each other...as long as the twin isn't too short.

2- Do the twins have 'hangover' room or are they boxed by bulkheads top and bottom. This question applies to both rear twins and side twins.

3- School me on the 403 engine. How does it do compared to the 455?

4- Anyone know of any near the mid south area that we could go look at?

5- Any for sale?
