Greetings to the forum.
My wife, pooch, and myself have been enjoying our ’76 Eleganza II for the past 3 seasons.
We had spent several years scouring the interweb for RV info, and then burned off much fuel and shoe leather narrowing down the list of contenders.
It really wasn’t that difficult - for us - to come to the conclusion that a GMC would be our craft.
Once we found our coach, we’ve kept busy with upgrades/replacements, from mild exterior tune ups, tires, shocks, brakes, rear suspension, front steering components, fuel lines and fuel injection.
We still have a decent sized punch list yet, but will tend to that, bit by bit, as budget and time allows.
Now, let’s see if we can pull together, and get spring happening!
Looking forward to seeing this forum continue to grow.WMDHE8089.JPGSOTGE1088.JPGVLNUE2083.JPGDSC00243 2.webp

Nice Coach! Your search sounds a bit like mine. We haven't been camping yet though, having just picked it up in September. I'm going through the mechanical systems over the winter and spending FAR more money than I expected. It will be worth it in the end though.
