Bought our 99 Navigator in 09. Haven't had anything major on it that you wouldn't expect from a 10 year old coach. Have loved every minute of it and look forward to loving many more minutes in it.

We have a 2003 HR Endeavor 38PST. Bought it last fall in AZ.....we live in MI. Got a much better deal there than what we could find in MI. Love it. It's everything we were looking for in a MH. Spent the winter changing out TV's and doing all the things needed to make it our own. She's all done and ready to roll.

Had our last dp in '05, now we have a Rambler, Admiral with 77,000 miles [we bought new because it was right for us without extras we didn't need]. 33 actual feet long with 2 slides.Got rid of the jackknife sofa, the rocker recliner and replaced them with 2 swivel recliners and cabinet to makeup for the under sofa storage just last year.Also, upgraded to leds and a bigger tv [ a32" instead of the original 26"crt]. This will be our last motorhome [we had our first one 10 years, this one we'll keep 20 years].

I bought an "88 HR Imperial 35 ft. last year and love it. 67,000 miles on it, everything works and for it's age, looks and runs great. I have done some mods - removed the in-dash tv and replaced it with a cabinet and took out the old inoperable ice maker. I replaced that with one of the little portable models on a sliding shelf. Hated the Dometic fridge and took that out and replaced it with a residential. Best thing about it, I was able to pay cash.

We have a 1996 HR Navigator. We love it and seems to be built really well. We have approx.70,00 miles on a 400 Cumins. Its paid for thankfully! Plan to keep it for quite awhile. It seems to be a little different than other 1996 HR i seen. Hopefully we can learn more and more about the RV lifestyle and still get parts and service on our 16 year old MH.



Kind Regards

Have a 1996 Holiday Rambler Vacationer ES, bought it a month ago, just tried it out. Everything works, but I messed the starter up on the generator.So I have to fix the generator, and back bumper--but everything else is great--the interior is like new.Runs good pulls up hills great.We love it. Have a couple of questions--where can I get the Holiday Rambler emblems, where can I get a replacement chrome wheel cover for the back tires? We got a great deal on it--Ive heard that Holiday Ramblers are among the best RV"s. Any info will be welcomed--we are newbees to class A camping. Going to get everything in great shape, check everything out good--and start travelling in the spring. Also what is best Roadside service? Vince

Sept 2011 I purchased a 1998 HR Endeavor with a cummins diesel pusher from the original owner with just under 80,000 miles on it. I have spent this summer having the coach worked on (normal maint. items). Hope to take my first cross country trip soon.

In July of this year we purchased our very first motorhome. It's a 35' 1994 Endeavor equipped with a 5.9-230 Cummins, 6 speed Allison, and 7.5kw diesel Onan generator. 74k miles. We bought the best that we could afford, with the notion that it might be better to buy an older motorhome of higher quality build. Time will tell. So far I guess I am satisfied. The design and build quality are great, but there are some cosmetic imperfections on the interior and the exterior that are simply a function of age which I can't justify repairing, and of course we've put quite a bit of money into this coach to get the mechanicals ship shape. Luckily, I can store this motorhome indoors, so it should last us a good while without too much additional weathering.

cheers
