Anyone know anything about RVs? followup Posted by Justin VanAbrahams [Email] ![]() ![]() |
Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who counseled me on an RV purchase. Yesterday after looking at a pile of them I pulled the trigger on a 1993 Fleetwood Southwind 30E. Conversations here really helped me distill down to what was truly important and what was negotiable. Honestly, I didn't end up with The Perfect RV for my needs, but I came to the conclusion that was a needle in a haystack search and ended up with something very close. The only things I gave up were finding something that already had a Banks kit installed and a rear queen bed - and those are two very livable compromises. I got the fuel injection, 4-speed, hydraulic leveling, and length I wanted - and I'm pretty sure it has either an 80 or 100 gallon water tank.
We bought it in Norco, CA which is - more or less - in the middle of nowhere. And then drove it 400 miles back to Sacramento, over the Grapevine, through crazy high winds, fog, a lightning storm, and rain. Quite an adventure overall!
