We did the deed! It wasn't easy finding a replacement for the Barth (cheap either), but I just couldn't fit in the shower. The new rig is 40', quite deluxe, and Linda is talking a six month trip. I will still monitor this site, as I have gotten a lot out of it.

Don & Linda, Looking forward to seeing the new coach! If you do any shakedowns to Hillsbourough or Manatee or any other of our parks, give a holler.

Don,

You did well on the new purchase. Vogue makes a fine coach. When I was looking for a motorhome, Vogue was at the top of the list along with Foretravel, Newell and Prevost. The Barth won out for two reasons - best price and this website. I don't have big bucks and new I would need to take care of most things myself. Having a group like our Barthmobile comunity makes keeping our coaches in shape at a reasonable cost possible.

I know you will be happy with your Vogue.
