    Actually, my husband just corrected me. The Supreme Select 2004 has 66, 000 on it not 80,000. Am not sure about the hours on the gen set? Will have to find out. It has no dish washer.. It is supposed to have been a $350,00+ unit when it was purchased. The people selling it are good friends of my sister in law and they are anxious for someone they know to buy it.


    We are flying to Florida to look at it and drive it next week. Hope we like it. We are anxious to try the full time life.. We raised 3 sons, who are now Eagle Scouts. We have been active in Boy scouting for over 25 years and love the outdoor part of camping, except when it is raining. And I want my own bathroom and bed! Thanks for all your opinions. Would like to hear from Supreme Select owners...is there a forum for Supreme Select owners?

    It has brand new tires, Norcold double door refrigerator, Cummins 500HP engine, Jake brake, 3 slides, washer/dryer. It has around 80,000 miles on it. Am not sure if the 3 TV's have been updated. It has a 110 solar panel, auto gen start and auto gen slide, and hydro hot heating system. They have all the maintenance records. We have read some negative comments about getting camping sites for motorhomes over 40 feet long. And we heard that some states require a special license to drive them too. Will we need to get a special drivers license to drive this 41'7" RV in California?

    We do plan on taking RV driving lessons at Lazy Days in Tampa and also plan to camp closer to interstates at first and use the toad to do sightseeing. We are just unsure about our first RV being this long. The longest one of my parents that I drove was 34 feet long.

    I am new to this forum. I suppose that it would be good to actually give more info and ask a question. I am from a motorhoming family and we tent camped a lot with our three sons.

    We would like to try fulltiming when we retire this spring. We have looked at 36 foot new Tiffins and Winnebago models.

    Now we have a chance to buy thru family a 2004 Travel Supreme diesel 41'7" in length. It has been very gently used, mostly for snowbirding in Florida. The owners are offering it to us for $80,000 and are including their toad which is 2007 Honda CRV.

    My brother thinks we need a diesel to travel the US and that we need the storage of a 40plus length to be happy full timing it.

    Any comments?

    Any owners of Select Supremes that really liked their RV?

    At a budget of 150K(max) I would suggest looking at slightly older upper end models of Beaver, Newmar, Country Coach, Monaco or Holiday Rambler.

    Now that said you will have to go a couple years older than a Tiffin Phaeton priced at 150K.

    What I am saying is you can buy a (for a example) 2005 -06 Beaver Patriot Thunder for 150K which is 3 times the MH a 2008 Phaeton would ever hope to be.

    Also 20K or 35K or 50 on these upper end units makes no difference on a unit as well build and anointed as a upper end Beaver (example) same with Country Coach, etc.

    2006 Beaver PT 43 tag on RV trader with ask of $155K. This unit blows a 2011 Phaeton out of the water quality wise.
