Got THE rig!

Postby Galandog » Sat Feb 02, 2013 7:39 am

Hi Friends!
I did it! Got the motorhome! I had looked at this unit a month ago and liked it but had no deal pending on my house so it was just a fun shop time. It was still there and i put money down. It is a 2004 CoachHouse Platinum 27XL. It has a white interior and, get this....5,600 miles on it!! The owners stored it in garage when not using it. I am so excited! I can sense the dream awakening like a slumbering herd of 8 or 9 puppies! Grace likes it too and it had to meet her requirement of being able to turn around several times in the shower since that will also be her Potty area. I won't take the space/time to describe all the features because this manufacturerer is known for being a bit higher end. SO I got the quality I wanted and the type of unit I wanted. The low miles, One owner were bonus. I am so relieved to be done HUNTING!!
Would love good positive energy sent by all to get through the rest of the process! THANK YOU!
Peace,
Dottie

Congratulations on your Coach House. I don't think you will be disappointed. I bought a 2002 Coach House Platinum 23' in 2006. I love mine, just wish I had more room. Mine has the white interior too. I like the white, makes it feel more open. I think the dark interior would make mine feel like a cave. I might have seen yours because I am always browsing the used Coach Houses that are for sale. I want the 27' one with a sofa and queen bed in the back. When I mention a different motorhome my DH asks how many people have had 4 motorhomes. I think that's beside the point. :lol:

Congrats. I had a friend with that make. They are well constructed. Make sure you post pics in the rig room when you get a chance.

I sure wish I knew what I was doing on this forum! It is a mystery to me and I'm still amazed when people respond because I have no idea how it works! Thank you all for kind words and happy enthusiasm! I'd put up pix of Grace but tried and failed because I only have pix in my documents (?) folder and they won't apply unless a public location??? I don't know and too much on my mind right now! The unit is just like mine if you google "Coach House Platinum 27XL". A site with somone showing a you tube video of one just like mine is right there. His is a diesel but mine is Ford 450. Thats all I can do for pix! and mine is a golden two tone color. It is snowing hard and everything is gloriously shrouded in white. Thats why I went RV shopping YESTERDAY! This is a lovely gift to be blessed in white!
Back at the packing and sorting!
