This ad has a lot of photos.

The passenger area in the tractor portion looks kind of cool. Overhead sleeper inside...looks like the side facing bench seats could also sleep one on each side...?

Why didn't they put a simple $1,000 rear bumper to protect against a multi thousand dollar repair if bumped...?

Comments?

Really nice coach, I do like the interior.

But the color change from bright red on truck to totally white on box does not look good.

That sure is an odd looking "200 gal water tank"

I don't like the entry to the RV from the sleeper. I assume one would have to bend down?

Too old for that.
I am curious about the connection between the sleeper and the rv....how much flexing would there be?

Re the coach portion:

Is the condo style coach with an overhead sleeper and the two side facing bench seats, if desired, sort of the best way to go...?

As compared to a standard height coach with an overhead bunk that is part of and inside the cabin portion...? The condo version looks aero cleaner and easier to keep clean...

The coach part is sort of like a seperate room in itself with a seperate overhead bed...cool idea for lots of guests or kids who want some privacy...How long are the side facing bench seats...5' or so...? You could sleep one person on each bench seat also...

Is this a standard coach condo layout...? what other layouts are there...? Do they make a double overhead sleeper version...?

I saw a 2001 volvo condo tractor today that looked really nice because it was so clean and slick looking. Minimum things to clean...

Wick,

your coach interior looks really cool also. removing the overhead sleeper opens up the area and the coach and cabin become one unit... and if you put some hooks on the inside, you could run a removable canvas overhead cot supported by two level poles that could sleep more overhead if you needed more sleeping space...

did your coach ever have a overhead bunk...?

Don't worry.... Everything's cool, so long as you don't get wet near an open flame....
Wouldn't that be a hot item?
It would sure blow me away....
