Mike.. That first camper is VERY similar to mine.

Only the exterior is a little nicer, and the actual bath room is a little nicer.

I really like the 275 hp and the 6 speed, decent power and good on fuel (10 MPG towing). I'm headed to Harlan with it in the morning , and plan to take it to the west coast in the near future.

That one has a super slide just like mine, it's a pretty simple set up.

I would like to add, if you don't think you need a slide, don't ever look at one with one, because you'll never go back, it's a huge improvement in living space.

My camper is very easy to work on, the entire bed is on hydraulic cylinders and it just lifts up for access, make it super easy to work on.

I looked at a bunch before buying mine, so if you have any questions please let me know.

Thanks Josh!
If I go Moho I think it needs at least an 8.3, and air/air isn't negotiable.

8.3 would be nice..

My set up is air/air as well.

Every once in a while I would come across an older American Eagle (seems fitting actually) without a slide, for not a lot of money.

That would probably be equipped with a 8.3. Those are extremely nice coaches.

The only real thing I sacrificed was a diesel generator.. Mine is gas, but has a 30+ gallon tank, so I also plan to turn that into a fuel caddy for the jeep at some point.

little heartbroken that this went so cheap. wish I had parking (and motivation. I can't buy anything at all until I finish something). Perfect platform.

I think it'll have cast iron heads. I wonder how "tougher" they are being cast iron.

This was the 8.3 10sp air/air T300 I mentioned to smike the other day, pretty cool truck for the price. Should be reasonable capable and comfortable
