Well! RV Guy sounds +++like he has an MH very similar in the way its been kept up.And it sounds wonderful, many of these do. Ours is a 1995 Winnebago Vectra, and its beautiful. The color isnt my favorite,(country blue) but thats about all I'd change. Its 33', w/out a slide yet, oddly still very very spacious.Its got 54K mikes and less than 300 hours on the generator. Leak free, never "Lived in", so it still has that crisp appearance and smell. I enjoy it so much Ive just gotten a prescription for Chantix, as I refuse to stink this MH up, not the least of all ruining my health any more.I want to stick around a while and enjoy that which we worke hard for! I'm a big fan of some newer MH's, but I can also appreciate a well taken care of vintage ANYTHING, Including Men! (On a diet bein married, but I still look at the menu, to see what Im missin!HA!)and then realize with comparison how lucky I am to have DH! ! Sandy

2006 Diesel with 18,000. Have done way too much to this one to even think of replacing her. Window awnings on order and thinking seriously of putting in the amish cooling unit.

She is a beauty, full body paint, I wouldn't replace her either.

Mine is older than a lot of people on this forum. I was underneath it a while back installing the wires for the SeeLevel II unit and the solar panel front to back pickuos and noticed the initials N Z written on the bottom.

Near as I can tell those belong to an infamous Biblical personality Noah Zark.

So I guess mine is really old.

I have a 1999 DSDP with 73K. I was in an Escapee park the other day and a guy said that he wanted to give me his card because he would like to buy my rig when I decided to trade it off. He made me feel good that I keep it in good shape. He couldn't believe that it was 13 years old.

I will keep it until I hang up my keys.

2008 Coachmen Freelander with 15k miles. I plan on keeping it until Dec of this year because that's when the Mayans say the world will end! I know that's not true though because I just bought batteries today that don't expire until 2018! Stupid Mayans! Lol
