We left Georgia Monday morning and are in Marion, Illinois today> The 3 of us just love this unit ( 3+ me, wife and the kitty). I need about 2 days to just sit in the uit and learn how everything works. We are very experienced RV'rs but have never had anything with this much electronics. I have a million questions but will save them for another post. I do have some commenst on our first Monaco product:

The overall fit and finish is very good. They have put a lot of thought into the layout and the location of all the switches. The little map/laptop table is a very bad design. My knees hit the table. The decorative valence around thebedroom windows is dumb. All thge others are rectangular and these 2 are round. Ugly! The ride is greAt!!!! I ish they had a cup holder for the driver on the RH side. The one they provide is very cheap!! Of cousre these are all very minor and I am nitpicking what is a fabulous MH. Lots of things I have not figured out. The kingdome and the satellite system took me an hour to figure out and get a hit. AS others have said the radio sucks. But I will be installing my Sirius. Thanks to all who helped me in this endeavour.

Oh One:

I bought it from a private owner. WJ is one of the finest people I have ever met. He bought it in Novemeber and took one trip to Florida. His poor wife is too ill to travel. We stayed in his driveaway overnite and he gave us a personal trip throught the region including seeing an old Juke joint/restaurant from the 40's. Amazing. We will probably go back and visit next year. I dont think the shower or microwave were ever used. Under 5000 miles. We love it!! To my knowledge he only dealer is Bleakely .
