Upgrade to non slide bus
-
and they went out and in through the door of our XLII.
It is a tight fit and you have to lift the machine way up to make it past the co-driver seat.
Fortunately, I do have a strong wife! … 🙂
We swapped machines because the one in our prior RV, a 4 slide Newmar Ventana, was actually a couple of years newer than the one in our bus.
With some care, 2 people can handle such a move.
We have been living in the bus fultime since this past October and we do use the machine a lot. Would not want to be without a washer/dryer because you can do your laundry much more easily and let the machine run while you are out and about.
A stacker would be even nicer but that would mean losing a linen closet.
Cheers,

For the time being, still living at Camp Coachworx in Clearwater.

Paul and Janice,
I see that you have sold your Prevost. Are you looking for another one? If you mentioned it, I may have missed the post.
Safe travels,

We started a list of must haves and would be nice items when we purchased our first motorhome. A bedroom slide was on the would be nice list, however a different layout could solve that issue. Ease of movement around the bed and storage space is the current issue. The must haves list has changed slightly now that our kids don’t travel as often with us.
We currently spend most of our time outside enjoying the locations we stay at and I don’t see that changing.

We went from an 08 Beaver Contessa, 42-footer with 4 slides. We now have a 99 Country Coach with no slides. We have traveled from FL to AK spending almost 10 months in the coach. It’s a great conversion and we didn’t miss the slides. Now that we have a new Lab, I would suggest a single slide would be ideal. We are now missing the floor space and queen sleeper sofa that our grandson’s use to sleep on. A slide whether mechanical or hydraulic needs a manual way of closing. My Beaver went through 3 pumps in less than a year! Lippert had some design flaws that they eventually worked out.

We had a 2 slide Dynasty that we made the change to a 45 XLV 8 years ago. We were happy to be rid of slides. Our bus also has a north south bed which means Pat does not have to walk around the end of the bed. Another plus is on cold nights our heads are not next to the window. In our bus with rivets Prevost forgot to put in double pane windows. We have a stacker

MM,
We are not currently planning to replace the bus. However, we have considered purchasing a much smaller motorhome that would allow us to access campgrounds and parks that could not accommodate the Liberty.
Our Liberty Coach was perfect for us when we were full timing. Something smaller might be just the ticket for short getaway adventures.
Best wishes for many safe and enjoyable miles in your new Liberty. You made an excellent choice.

Hurry up Paul, we’re waiting on you and Janice to get anything with wheels.

Maybe a non slide 40 footer would fill the bill for them Tom. It sure works for us

Paul and Janice,
Our first motorhome is the Dynasty. After my many years of reading, one thing that stuck in my mind was, ‘buy your third motorhome first’. Well, I felt like we did that with the Dynasty. Now that we are getting a larger top-of-the-line motorhome, I can see maybe a class B way in the future.
The Sprinter units seem interesting, they get good fuel milage……. and, can fit almost anywhere.
Good luck on your search and I hope that you find another motorhome.
Safe travels,
Mark
