We've started a journey

We have our house on the market and have two parties taking 2nd looks, so we hope it sells this spring. We used to have a '91 Beaver Marquis which we sold after 19 years and 145,000 miles of great summer trips. Visited all 49 states and all provinces of Canada but one. Last week we purchased a used 45' Monaco Signature with 4 slides. Our intention is to move into the Monaco full time and travel for 5+ years and then settle where it doesn't snow.

The new (to us, it's a '04) coach has a couple of issues like the backup SONY display, the radio and bedroom TV were stolen, but no damage was done. (The considerate thief's just unplugged the units and didn't cut any wires). As a result, we got the unit at a real great price. I've already managed to purchase a replacement for all the major missing items for less cost than anticipated. The interior is like new,- the white leather couch looks like it has never been sat on- it has almost all possible options for this high end coach and is not at all used looking.

We picked it up last week and drove it home, (1283 miles) and it runs like a dream. Anyhow here's a photo of our new rig.

Looks brand new ... Looks like this one will be going places like your previous one did. Best of luck (no that I think you need it) and safe travels.

That is great! Ours sold in 8 days, not from an internet view, but a walk-by; saw the sign. Hope yours goes quick and smooth. So, once again, the journey is your destination?

That will be a lot of fun. Good luck with the house sale. Ours should be listed by next week as well.

DP's look awesome even when they are used because most people take care of them due to the amount of money invested. Yours is no exception. Looks beautiful. I hope you get many safe miles and a lot of smiles out of it.
