2007 Monaco - Many Questions

Recommended Posts

I am looking at a 2007 Monaco Executive to purchase. I am in the due diligence stage reviewing service history etc. I spent yesterday going through the interior with the wife and have a list of items, nothing that is a deal breaker.

Tomorrow I will begin a more thorough check of the chassis and mechanicals. I got the serial number on the engine yesterday and will contact Cummins on Monday to see if there are any known concerns.

I currently own a 2002 Alfa DP that is 37' and have done many upgrades and used the rig as a training / learning vehicle, but it is not a Monaco that is 44' with a tag axle. We are full time now and would like the extra room,,,, I think :rolleyes:.

The unit I am looking at appears to be in excellent condition both inside and out. It has very low miles which is both good and bad. It has a a 525hp Cummins ISX  pre-emissions engine. I am having very little luck securing maintenance records which bothers me and makes my check out a little more difficult. If I believe the salesperson the rig was owned by a little old lady from Pasadena that only drove the rig on Sundays ha ha ha.  I am looking for a technician or knowledgeable individual to go through a check out with me.

Does anyone know of an individual in the Phoenix area that I can contact?  Also any insight to the 2007 year Monaco's overall, suggestions and recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks

Patrick

In addition to FMCA forums, I suggest going out on the Monaco forums on RV.net.  There are many Monaco owners who would love to share info/advice with you.  Good Luck!

Patrick, 

First let me advise you to edit your post and remove your phone number. (be safe) If someone wants to contact you they can send you a PM (personal message)

Now. it appears you are doing your due diligence and checking everything out.

You could have the engine oil, transmission fluid and the coolant tested. These test can tell you a lot about your unit. Monaco is a great coach from that period. 

Good luck and I hope it turns out for the best

Herman
