I do love the coach, but the 1 and only thing that isn't ideal IMO is the TV location. If it's bad weather I wouldn't like to turn 90° to see it

After paying your dues in the desert looks like your life's a dream now.

YOU COULD GET THIS COACH WITH A CERTIFIED CHECK FOR $ 223,000 . THAT IS A GREAT DEAL FOR A TOP LINE NEWMAR KING AIR. YES IT NEEDS ABOUT 10-15 FIXED BUT ALL MINOR THINGS MOSTLY COSMETIC.

I have always wondered why they put the main TV in a spot where it is basically unwatchable when sitting the coach. Who watches TV at a 90-degree angle?

Hello Sir, not in the market for that big of a coach, but I have gotta say; the year, condition, features it has...$229 doesn't seem that bad of a price to me for all a person is getting! Betting a 2023 would be in the range of half a million, so here u get pre def and almost like new condition, and all said and done, a quarter of a mil saved to buy fuel and food and have a helluva nice 30 next vacations with it. U may say ur not a salesman, but Im betting that coach will get sold to someone whom follows your channel, and respects and values ur opinions and truthfulness. Appreciate your videos and knowledge.
