BornFree 32'

Hi Folks,

New to the forum and also to RVing. We purchased a 2006 BornFree 32' Rear Queen from a private owner. They have had the coach for 10 years and decided to sell due to health reasons. We are fortunate to know them as they are great people and graciously spent many hours and days ensuring we were comfortable with it and all systems.

Some specs on the coach:

Chevy Kodiak chassis with 8.1l gas engine w/5spd Allison Tranny
48000 miles
50Amp
7k Onan generator
Dual Air
47gal fresh, 37blk, 57gry, 23gal Propane, and 60gal fuel
16500lbs base with water/fuel, 19500lbs GVWR, 3000lbs CCC, 26000 GCWR
Class IV hitch

We'll be towing a Jeep Wrangler 4door so we were looking for a rig that would be able to handle that and additional weight carrying capacity. The seller is in Utah and we're in Ohio, so we flew out to pick up and took a couple weeks to drive back. I'll post the trip details in another thread. Over 2000 miles traveled with no issues.

Some pics:









Safe Travels...Dave & Diane

Probably one of the better built safest Class C ever hit the market
