Yes, I did see the article. It's kinda interesting, although all those sliding doors to cover the opening seems a little strange. I guess they don't have a choice but the photo shows a lot of depth with that many doors. Also when the unit is stored while traveling those doors are closed and the window, although providing light, would be behind the glass/screen doors. It would be nice with the awning out for a deck to sit on. If it becomes a hit I'd hope either Country Coach or the awning folks would build a screen room attachment so when camping in areas prone to flying insects, which is about everywhere anymore, the thing would be useful.

This link is in the middle of the article that Dirk had his link going to.
You will find a photo of the veranda there.

If you can get someone to pump your fuel, you could drive across this county and never set foot on the ground

The August issue of Motorhome Magazine has the Veranda on the cover, with a few pics and an article inside.

Thanks Mama.  If I have the concept right, it's basically a slide out with no roof or solid walls. I think I would have to agree with rebelsbeach's evaluation. To hard to air condition.

I would rather sit outside on the ground next to my coach UNDER the awning.

If I had the nice concrete patio & grass on my campsite that's shown on that magazine cover shot, why the heck would I need a "veranda"? The idea of it would've been better had they shown mud under there . But, then, that wouldn't have made a good cover shot.
DH also pointed out that it looks barely wide enough for a camp chair. let alone the camp chair with the table attached like a lot of us have. If more than 1 person wanted to watch the TV, they'd have to line up chairs one behind the other in a column - who would want that?
I guess, to each his own. Someone will buy this coach for that feature....just not me.

There is great need for a sarcasm font.
