As time passes more and more folk are not enlightened to the joys of Barthdom.

John and Amy....you mean you don't carry wallet photos of your Barth to show to people who have never heard of, or seen one? Big Grin

I wish you'd quit showing photos of my future Barth - when I get moved and have the room, I want - nay, NEED, a Regency 32'.

In either case the idea is quite staggering.

Hey Rusty, welcome back. This is 1991 32foot coach that was for sale like forever in Kansas. The reason it didn't sell is that the owner was on a farm some 125 miles from the nearest big city. I was (is) a beautiful coach. Sold 4-5 years ago for $58 I believe.

I'm totally delighted with StaRV II ('94 28' Breakaway), considering its plusses (it'll make it into my driveway, and it has ample basement storage) and minor minusses (even more basement would be appreciated) and I'd like enough muscle to pull a toad (actually, I think the DD 6.5L TD has enough to pull a toad, but I want even more...) Plus I just like the balance of the 32' Regency profile. Now this is weird, since one can't see one's mount when driving it, but the Regency 32' looks "just right".

I know what you mean Rusty, i was looking for a 32-36 ft. Regency but could not find one in my price range at the time.....and then i happened to find our bus and the rest is history. If anything ever happens to it i would be looking to replace it with either another bus or a Regency.
