VanToliver Report post Posted December 20, 2024 Hello FMCA friends, well it's been a long road but I finally have gotten there..Purchased a Monaco Signature Series Diesel Pusher for a song and a dance..1991 Monaco in pristine condition..Had been sitting in a barn for 20+ years.. Purchased new batteries and drove it home 🏡..New tires and fuel solenoid for the generator and a few small things (first motorhome)and now I am ready for our first adventure 😀. To Mexico beach and then to Panama City beach and after that Long Island New York to visit with the grandkids..Can't hardly wait to begin.. Wish me luck 🙏 my friends..

rayin Report post Posted Wednesday at 01:53 AM Welcome to the discussion forums! My MH was parked in a barn for 8 yrs., so speaking from experience, start a savings program to cover maintenance costs now.. I was lucky, my MH was within the time limit for an extended service contract through Good Sam. Nothing happened to the chassis, but the ESC more than paid out my premium cost and claim deductibles fixing things in/on the coach/house. Your MH is too old to qualify for an ESC, thus the recommendation above. Each appliance should be serviced now before your trip.
