    We had a 38’ motor coach about 4 years ago when my kids were 3 and 7 and we loved it. We got about 7mpg with it and I was ecstatic when I saw 8. We ended up selling it and bought a 33’ boat to stay on while at the anchorage’s we frequently go to. We got a whopping 0.9 miles to a gallon with the twin Volvo penta IO’s. Honestly I liked the coach better than the boat but happy wife is happy life.

    I’ve only been hit by bed bugs once; on the duty train from Bremerhaven to Frankfurt.

    Nasty.

    I have a cab over camper and a box trailer for base camping. Works great, haul to wherever and set up camp, offload the B, explore for a few days, load up, move to the next spot and repeat. Saves on hotels and food as you have everything with you. Bonus as you eat better than if you were eating out every night.

    I have owned three RV’s in the past 10 years. Two were Class C coaches on Chevy and International diesel chassis and the last one was a Class A Winnebago Cummins diesel pusher. We had great trips when the kids and grandkids lived in Florida and Arizona. We put close to 70,000 miles combined on the three. When they moved back to Texas a couple of years ago, the coach was parked on my pad for a year. I took a big loss and sold it in July. Miss the miles and smiles but not the cost of ownership. Enjoy your new toy!
