    Karl, You are in Florida. All you need is a roof and a gravel pad. All those members up North would give anything to walk out to their Bus in Winter and tinker with it right at their house. Keep the leaves and acorns off the roof and you are good to go. Although we have a Bus Garage we put three campsites in with 50 amp hook ups for 20K. We are probably close to you if you want to see if any of our ideas would work for you.

    Craigslist has a category "parking / storage" that frequently lists warehouses and garages suitable for buses.

    The best Craigslist aggregator, IMHO, is Craiggers.com. Right now, when I enter "Prevost" in the search box and choose "RV" from the category list, I get 153 listings all over the country.

    Likewise, when I enter "RV" in the search box and choose "parking / storage" from the category list, I get 3,800 listings. You can filter by number of features, like location, to reduce the listings.

    Only prolem is, Craiggers only works with Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.

    Your electric is probably hi $$$ because when being in the center of 30 ac you are 568 feet to the edge of the property.



    Just sayin, JIM

    There is only 2 things a coach needs for storage. An enclosed building and 20 amp electric to keep power to the inverters.

    From that point you can add features based on what you want or need. A heavy floor allows you to jack up the coach or support the chassis. More power allows you to run AC units or heat the coach. Water, sewer, and compressed air just add to the list. Having heavy insulation minimizes temperature swings, which in FL may not be a factor.

    If you want to go wild and crazy add a pit, tool and parts storage, lots of lighting and loud music.

    The ultimate is all of the above with a Liberty coach.

    Marathons, prefer a quiet storage and rest very peacefully with mode lighting and elevator music.

    You think? I hate to be outdone by the Joneses (or Wehrenbergs). They all say it needs to be closed in and 6 inches of concrete.

    I'd love to stop by some time. Perhaps you can PM your address and contact info?
