We are looking at a 2006 30 foot Monaco Class A coach here in El Paso, Texas. It is in beautiful, "as new" shape, has only 9,900 miles on it and is priced so that a deal might be there. It is at the absolute top end of what we planned to spend but there are many reasons why they might drop their asking price. Monaco is definitely one of the better quality coaches made. It has aluminum sides and a solid fiberglass roof - a big improvement, and is importable into Canada duty free. We have an appointment tomorrow morning to test drive it and I will let you know what happens. It would certainly make us a higher class of "Trailer Trash".Update: We could not reach a deal. I depreciated the original MSRP for three years and made that offer. They said it was below wholesale and refused it. We ended up $3000 apart. We will keep looking.
I must add that working with J.P. and the Sales staff at Camping World in El Paso was a pleasant experience. They are not high pressure at all. We just agreed that I could (would) not go any higher and they could (would) not come any lower. We shook hands and parted on friendly terms.
