It just hit the Motorhomes of Texas website for $49,500. For some one who doesn't want to go too big, travel in luxury and still be able to fit in national & state parks, here is your coach. Mileage is still under 100K. There is just more than $50,000 worth of coach there! This is truly a steal.

For a minute, I thought Forest traded in more than the 39'er.

I can screw up a name better than anyone, but thanks for pointing it out Stuart.

We're going to be at MOT on Monday to take a look at this coach. Anybody want to suggest the kinds of things I might be looking at in assessing a coach like this? Or any specifics for this coach from anyone who has seen it in the past?

Does anyone on here know an expert anywhere near Nacogdoches, TX, on Newells (and diesels) that I might hire to go over this coach with me and provide some technical advice as we consider purchasing it?

Forest & Mary,
The Foretravel Motorcoach factory is in town. I would go talk to them & see if you could hire one of their experienced techs, after hours or on the weekend, to do an evaluation. Another idea would be to find out what bank Motorhomes of Texas usually uses for coach financing. Call them & they will have an appraiser & evaluator they use in the area. The only thing with this approach is you'd have to make it clear that you are not just looking to make sure the coach is worth what it is selling for, but you want a total coach evaluation.
Good Luck in your search............................
