New to us Powerhouse Coach
We weren't even looking for an RV. We were just planning a driving trip from Michigan to Alaska and back through Canada. And then this rig came along...
I hadn't been RVing since the late 70's, when I was a kid. We like to travel but usually stay in hotels along the way. And then this rig came along...
My wife's retired and I'm trying to get there, so we should have more free time. And then this rig came along... Think of the possibilities!
Okay, it's bigger than we need for just the two of us to travel around but once you see all that room inside everything else seems cramped. It's not exactly legal in most (okay, all) states, but nobody has bothered us yet. I think they have more to worry about right now anyway. We bought it last year and have put just over 8k miles on it so far. Absolutely love it! It's a 2007 model and had just 23k miles on it when we bought it, so it's just getting broken in.
I'd really like to connect with any other Powerhouse owners who might be out there on the forums because I've still got lots of questions. Looking forward to seeing everyone out on the road!

That is something else.
52 feet of freedom. So what is in the trailer? Toad? Toys? Both?
A lot of wow factor.
Wishing you many happy retirement miles.

Thanks Xmcdog. The trailer is a 35' stacker, so we can haul two cars plus room for toys. We don't haul the trailer much because it really limits where we can go. Usually just tow the Jeep with the hydraulic lift on the back of the coach and go where we want to go.
kpecks. I don't have any interior pics but I'll try to post some soon.
Thanks everybody for your well wishes.
