Hmmmmmm........buy your last coach first........Interesting concept. Too late for me.me thinks. Coach #6.......and counting.

Yes... but.... you are trading up by improving and adding sweat equity. Too bad we have not filmed this... it would make a great documentary.

Hey there's the deal for you Mel! Most of us would be happy to have Les's leftovers. You know he has already gone thru it with a magnifying glass and addressed any issues. And with Les it's nothin but the best just look at that kitchen re-model. So there ya go. Just wait a few more months cause he gets board with em and buys another one so you can get a real deal there. Now am I tellin the truth Les?

Yep. I forgot they were staying. They were gone this morning, but they had just moved. Ed and Jackie came by on their way out. It's been a fun week.

It's hard to wave goodbye to a fellow mutant... so we just say adieu - or is it ahhh chuuu...

We have covered storage with 120 vac. That is nice because it keeps the batteries maintained and I don't have to turn off any battery switches. Just visit it once ina while and check the water levels. Also, about every 6 weeks I'll take it on a 20-30 mile ride just to exercise the engine and fluids.
