Hi!
I'm excited to tell you about my RV.
It had been sitting in some guy's backyard for 9 years prior to my purchase of it a little over a year ago, and it was never ran during that time. Still, it passed smog without driving it more than five miles. How's THAT for indication of a good engine? The engine is a 440 cubic inch big block. Its matched with the highly reputable a727 automatic transmission. This thing has surprising power!
There's new transmission fluid and radiator fluid.
Engine oil looks better than my Honda CRX
I've never hooked it up to electricity, but everything presumably works. It worked the last time the guy I bought it from used it.
Has 100 gallon gas tank and 100 gallon water tank.
There's been water damage, but this is very fixable with some patience (which I lack at this moment)
It's got a tow hitch welded to it. The previous owner towed his 3,500 lb boat with it.
It could use a new propane tank. The guy at the gas station said he wouldn't fill it in the condition that it's in.
Comes with a 1400 watt modified sine wave inverter, 6 fully charged, practically new 275 AH 6 volt batteries hooked up in a 12 volt configuration. At this price, the Xantrex c40 charge controller (http://www.xantrex.com/web/id/72/p/1/pt/5/product.asp) and 540 watts of solar panels on the roof don't come with it.
It's got a hookup which looks to be a 220 volt.
The kitchen looks to be mostly unused. It's got a nicely sized gas/electric fridge and a freezer compartment. Lots of storage space!
It's got a bike rack mounted on the back which doesn't interfere with the tow hitch. The bike rack is designed such that with the right lock you can lock up your bike and not have to worry about getting it stolen.
There's a serious locking mechanism installed over the gas cap, so nobody's going to pour stuff into your gas tank.
Starts up fine. I love this beast.
Title/registration is current.
