I am looking for a used coach and like tiffins. But it seems everything I am looking at does not have any windows in the bedroom.

I am looking for a coach no larger than 32 feet, gas or diesel.

thanks

You might have a look at a Serrano. They are around 32'. I think one model may be 34ish.

bubba5,

I'm not sure what year or model Tiffin you're looking at; but to be 32' or less, it would have to be a Breeze, an Allegro Open Road, or an older year Allegro Bay.

All the current and recent Tiffin models I am aware of have windows in the bedroom. The current Allegro has 3 windows - 1 on each end of the slide and 1 opposite the bed. Some older Allegros only had 1 or 2 bedroom windows. The Breeze, which has no bedroom slide, has 2 windows.

Tiffin has brochures and floorplans for all its models back to 2005 available on their web site. Click "Archive" at the top of the page. To see floorplans, click "Specifications" and choose the year and model you're interested in. The floorplans show where the windows are located.

Find that hard to believe so I looked on the Tiffin website at their Allegros back as far as 05 I believe. Every one of the 32 ft rigs has an emergency escape window in the bedroom. Would like to know what year you are looking at...might learn something.

Buy any coach you want. This place can add a window for you. Or a slide if you'd like. They do good work. I've been to them three or four times and am pleased with their work.

Regarding windows in bedroom... No a fact of life is it's nice to have an emergency exit in the bedroom Either a door to the outside or an 'Escape window" or some kind of escape hatch.. I do not know the code but would not be surprised to find it is a requirement.. (Nor would I be surprised to find it's not).


But in truth.. My bedroom window let in enough outside conditions (Temperature) that I wound up "blocking it off" in a manner of speaking.

I have a genuine Navaho blanket.. Not very pleasant as a blanket but I managed to hang it btweeen the glass and the day/night shade.. it blocks light, heat and cold making the bedroom much more comfortable.. Sadly I can not open the window (Will have to do something about fresh air in here some day) but ... No one can peek in and the hot/cold stays out.. PLUS the release latches should I ever have to exit.. quickly... are not blocked in the least.

I am looking for a 08-09 open road tiffin. I had heard the did not have windows in bedroom. I know most have emergency exit but I like to have ventilation with open windows.

I guess the 32LA would be my choice for now.

I found one on a workhorse chassis, 14,000 miles, 2 airs, roof sat dish and they want 69,000 fot it

Does that sound like a fair price?
