We Bought Another Motorhome

WHERE ARE WE? Denton, Texas

Well we are motorhome shopped out.  We are thinking we have found one that will work.  Problem is that it is back in the spot that we left yesterday.  That means a 100 km drive.  We were on the road by 10 heading back to Joshua Tx and the RV Depot.  We met Theresa at the front desk and she took us to relook at one of the motorhomes we looked at yesterday.



Anyway, like I mentioned yesterday, there are some real savings to be had on some pretty good older Motorhomes with low mileage.  The one we are looking at is a 2014 Coachman Pursuit.  It is 27 feet long and has everything on our checklist.  It has a King size bed in the back bedroom with lots of closet space.  It has a drop down double bed above the drivers area.  It has a good sized bathroom with an electric/propane fridge, and a stove with an oven.  The outside has some oxidization which we will get fixed in Mexico, and a couple minor fixable flaws.  It needs tires all the way around, but every used motorhome older than 5 years generally needs the tires replaced even if they are not miled out. We plan to put some solar on the roof and get some AGM batteries for whatever unit we pick as well.  Here is the one we are looking at today.  What do you think???


NO NO NO!!!  Thats not it.  I'm just kidding you.  Here it is.





We did a little thinking and played a game or two of Cornhole and stood by the fake campfire for a while and after some discussion decided this one will probably work for us.  



We are now the proud owners of not 1 but 2 Motorhomes.  This will be an  expensive trip home just for fuel alone.  We will probably put the Rexall on the market later this summer and move all our stuff into the new one.  Well not all our stuff because this one is only 27 feet long and doesn't have as much room for stuff.  That is probably a good thing because we are getting way too much.  We are pretty pumped but they have to do all the checks and there are some things to fix before we pick it up on Tuesday.  


We had a good sales lady who didn't do the high pressure thing but rather got the information we asked for.  She is new to the Motorhome sales so I think she enjoyed finding out a few things about them.  Thanks for your help Theresa!!


We all loaded up for the 1 1/2 trip back to Denton where the Ponderosa is.  Archie settled in on Dani's lap for the drive.


The kids played some silly kazoo game before heading to bed.  We will all sleep good tonight.  Good Nite!!
