Finding a Foretravel coach

I love the Foretravel coaches, but they can be hard to find. Where are good places to look for models in good shape and maybe owned by private individuals, for around $150K? We are looking to full-time in the late spring. If you bought used, where did you find your coach? Any tips?

Tubo-
As TW said check the factory website.
They have both used & consigned units.
We bought new in August and couldn't be more pleased with the coach.
We bought the #6506 Texas Edition. Fine coach. Had a Travel Supreme prior and thought that was the tops!.
Happy shopping & hope you find just the right Foretravel!!

Turbo Turtle... If you get the chance take a run down to Nacogdoches, Texas and tour the Foretravel factory. We came through there the first of the month on our way to the Texas Gulf Coast to spend the winter and it was definitely worth the trip. They also had five or six used coaches on consignment open for inspection. There were two three that were older then 2000, one year 2000 and a couple 2003's. They all fell in at or below the price range you mentioned.

As you can see by my signature I'm not a Foretravel owner, but I'd sure like to be. After visiting three or four motorhome factories the Foretravel has got to be one of the best, if not the best, motorhome built. At least that's my opinion. My wife and I really liked the used year 2000 coach we saw there. It may be 4 years older then what I now have but it was years ahead of mine also.

James the Owner of Extreme in Nacogdoches, TX is selling his custom and restored 95 40'. It is beautiful and shows all of the upgrades that are available on the Foretravel.

If you talk to him, let him know that you heard from me, Jeff, I am here now getting the headlight conversion and bulkhead repair.

His phone number is 936-462-1678 or 936-560-5888.

Also check out MOT, Motor Homes of Texas. They have quite a few that are consignment coaches. I am sure you can contact the owners or at least get answers to any questions you may have. J
