I just wanted to report that I took a test drive in the Monaco LaPalma UFO and it everything I thought it would be and more. The ride was excellent and the performance of the UFO chassis was consistent with the other UFOs I have driven.

The interior of the coach featured a cherry wood finish and although we didn't open the slideouts and setup the interior of the coach I can remark that the seating was comfortable.

Moving the LaPalma was effortless and it was a fun drive. Many other people that took the test drive in the LaPalma in Perry also relate that their experience was same as mine. Going North on I-75 a high speed lane change was accomplished effortlessly without any body roll what so ever. The turn around was equally impressive using the 55 degree wheel cut which is quite remarkable for a gas chassis.

I would highly recommend that you experience the ride yourself by test driving one or the other UFO, the HR Vacationer or the Monaco LaPalma.

What kind of price are we talking? A Vacationer XL well loaded is under 150k.
