I am Jim and my wife Cheri and I have talked about upgrading soon to a MH . We were riding down the road and saw a class "C" with a garage and have not been able to see another since. I am looking for one with a least 58" clearance to get the fairing of the Goldwing in. One that opens at both sides would be perfect. kind of Drive in and drive out. Backing that thing up is tough on a hill . Thank in advance for your help.

Jim, I have not seen one with a double sided doors but you may want to check out www.fourwinds-rv.com/funmover as one source of something that might work for you.

Wow! The Funmover 35C and 39C are one heck of a machines. I don't think I've ever seen a Class C motorhome on a F750 chassis before. 32,000lb GVWR, 60,000lb GCWR.

Carrying capacity of 10,500 lbs.

That certainly allows bringing along all the toys when you go camping.

Kablewizard, YOU deserve the best!


2005 Travel Supreme Mid-Engine Diesel Pusher

See What Everyone's Talking About!
Travel Supreme has gotten the industry talking once again with this unique Mid Engine Diesel.

The Travel Supreme ME is a 41-foot luxury coach with two slideout rooms built on a Spartan Me2 chassis, the industry's first mid-engine chassis. Because the engine sits under the middle of the motorhome, it frees up more space for larger living areas in the coach, offers better driving and maneuverability, and allows enough room for a 12-foot deep garage - large enough to fit an ATV, a Golf cart or two motorcycles.

Hmmm, payments would be $3,224 per month for 20 years.

There is also some racks I have seen that go on to the bumper. I need one for 800 - 900 lbs.

Jim,

I just saw this 29' Coachmen Freedom Ramp & Camp on page 18 of the April 2005 Trailer Life magazine and thought about you when I saw it.

Thor Industries might build a toyhauler Class 'C' as an option on their Fun Mover Sport Recreation Vehicle. It's built on a Kodiak C4500 chassis, seems building it on the four wheel drive K4500 chassis would be a logical upgrade to a fine looking product.

But, it has the door on the rear.
