Hi Teemyob
All good comments, just goes to show some like 'um big and others small.
A couple of points,
I think if you drive a C class and then an A class you will discover how much easier the A class is to drive, EG Huge panoramic screen, high driving position, etc. The C class reminds me of a cat and why it has whiskers. Just because the front fits through it does not meen the back will.
At this point I will admit I am bias, as I have a New Winnebago Sightseer 26 for sale. This has everything you could desire and more including a FULL LOUNGE SLIDE and a FULL BEDROOM SLIDE with island bed and masses of storage. I have sold seven of these 26P Sightseers so far and can only say they are superb, check the winnebago forums.
I am sure with the help of this forum you will purchase the right RV for you.
Regards

RV's!

When someone on a site like the Lincoln Farm Park at Standlake we are on now, asks about the RV, I say simply this:

'If fuel and 10mpg worries you forget it!'

The other major downside if you want to call it that, is you have to plan your journey. For me this is not a problem as I always plan being an ex serviceman anyway.

The benefits I have explained on a previous post, but really size IS everything. Having the ability as I am now to sit outside with lots of chairs for visitors. The patio heater blazing away in the very cold sunshine is a blessing.

I have just been sat in a couple of Damon Daybreak 3272 double slide outs and they are truly stunning. More room than an average flat and with everything as standard.

Horses for courses as someone else has already stated!

Regards

Chris

Thanks Pusser, Tel999 and Chris,

Points taken.

I am used to driving larger vehicles up to 7.5T. So I do not see the size as that much of an issue. Though I can invisage the problems with many roads that we currently use.

As for the 26p's tell, where can I see them or more imortantly do you have a link for the one you have for sale.

MPG. Again not so much an issue, I calculate that a petrol RV doing 10 mpg on unleaded, running on LPG should do a diesel cost equivalent of 17mpg?. I do like diesels though.

MANDYA&DAVE,

Yes the Eura is terrific, the reason we have taken so long is that we have an access issue with keeping an RV outside the house, which is where we would prefer to keep it. In addition, we are moving closer to going full time and on to searching for our new house in France.

Choosing.

Well I thought buying the European motorhome took some time, around 2 1/2 years. The thing is, I find the range of RV's mind boggling. The different engines and chassis being my the most confusing. Made worse by the fact that like the European models, they have all recently changed a lot.

Questions.

I have hundreds, is there a magazine or book dedicated to US RV ownership?

Thanks all,

Trev.

One thing I forgot to mentions was that I felt certainly superior and very cool driving an RV but a complete twat when I cocked up. It became obvious to me that everyone watching you manouver is just praying for you to hit something and the power of prayer can sometimes bring quite startling results. Cool

One of the best buy's we've made so far is a set of walkie talkies! Makes placing the RV in tight spots very easy. No shouting or arm waving!

We have a C Class and go away every other weekend. Dumping tanks is very easy as others have said. Get into the practice of dumping waste before you depart a site and filling up with fresh water when you arrive. That way you're not wasting petrol humping unwanted water around.

Above all it's a great way to camp in style Cool

There is a publication about Rvs,
it costs a tenner, and you will find answers to 99% of all questions to rvs, from buying, running, using, driving, maintaining, repairing and enjoying your rv. The answers are concise, or rambling, always excellent and there is a cornucopia of references to other information sources. Some funny answers, some more sad.
Its called Motorhomes forum
