Karl, Take your time and look at everything out there. There are some great deals on coaches but you need to check them all out. There are several good converters out there and even some that are not in business anymore made good conversions in there day, and there are still people out there that know the coaches as far as repair goes. It seems like the best deal shows up right after you buy. I was lucky enough to be able to hook up with the previous owner of my coach so when I have a problem I can call him. That is a great resource to have, he owned the coach for five years and really knew it inside and out. Remember a beautiful paint job overwhelms a guy but it can hide a lot. I went in them, under them, and through them. I made six trips to Florida from Iowa to look at coaches. That said I never wanted anything other than a Prevost and the first motorhome I have ever owed. I sure hope I find out that I like camping.
