Monaco La Palmer

[Traveler2162]

Where does the La Palmer fit in the Monaco line up?
I noticed that it is the work horse chassis. How does this compare to the road master chassis.

Thanks,

Colin

the La Palma is considered the entry level for the diesel pushers. The diesel version in on the roadmaster chassis with the Cummins ISB (340 HP) But depending on which model and year you are referring to, I think it was around 2008, they offered it in a rear engine gas on the work horse (GM), (or ford) chassis. I never knew anyone that had the rear engine gas, so I don't know how it handled.

The rear gas handles great, I own the HR version, same coach, different exterior and interior color scheme. The engine is the Chevy Vortex 8.1. There is also a front gas version built before 08 and again for a few years after 08. You can find many for sale on the web under LaPalma and the popular misspelling sort of, La Palma.
