Your thoughts

Greetings all

I am strongly leaning toward purchasing a 2005 Essex.

What are your thoughts about the coach?
Is there anything I should be specifically looking for (unusual problems that you have encountered) or upgrades that can or should be done first?

Any other thoughts you may have will be welcome.

By the way- The coach looks perfect with 54,000 miles

I have studied over the year's knowing a upgrade would come some day, the only thing that I learned over the year's is to stay away from the E plex operating system in older Coach's. No part's, if ya can find some parts for the Eplex, very expensive.
One member on here had his Eplex converted to the Silverleaf, 20k! I did a lot of looking and knew I had to have the Silverleaf in the Coach.
So, my upgrade was a 2012 Essex, first year with the Silverleaf operating system.
Just go to the search bar at the top of the page and type in Eplex, you will find hours/day's of reading............Good luck in your decision and Coach searching!
Mike, after posting on your thread, the next post I clicked on was this: https://www.irv2.com/forums/f103/no-...lp-472195.html , problem with new to owner Coach with Eplex.
