Now here's the rest of the story. 
The owner's wife decided last year she was ready to do some traveling/camping and told him he should go shopping because she didnt want to go to all the camping places and look at hundreds of choices, and this is what he drove home with!  Can you hear me laughing! Sounds like something my husband would do.  After she explained that it wasn't what she had in mind, they went shopping together.  Thus, this vintage beauty is now up for sale.  In his defense, this is one solid motorhome.  No rocking and rolling in this when you walk around, it is clean, it has plenty of storage.  Unfortunately, since the current owner never got to use it to go camping he can't vouch for the working condition of the appliances, A/C etc.  When he bought it, the previous owner said it had 4 new batteries, A/C was nice and cold, and that the reverse camera had a wire disconnected and wasn't working. 

If you are looking for something to park at the lake or hunting spot this would be a good option.
