Thanks for the video!! I'm a new Nomad, and I'd like to upgrade from tent life to camper. 😂 You did a great job with the walk through video!! I saw EVERYTHING just fine, the lighting was great!
Hey we are looking at a 2000 model that looks basically the same as yours. I was wondering if you could tell me anything that you've learned/liked/disliked since uploading this video last Sep. Thanks!
Hello! The biggest thing I can tell you is that it will most likely require some maintenance as it is 18 years old. It does seem that parts are relatively easy to get unless you are talking about a specific to this rv part such as a body part or interior finish part. We have now installed a whole new braking system as the brakes were bad. I also installed new shocks. We had to have the slide out awning patched as it had a hole in it. My front drivers side and passenger side windows had moisture between the glass as the seals had gone bad. I researched the cost of ordering new windows which had to be made to fit and it was outrageously expensive. So I took the window units out and had a local auto glass company replace the glass with a single pane of 1/4” auto glass shimmer to fit. Things like this are just examples of things that you may deal with. I don’t want to give you the impression that I regret buying this motor home, but if you are not the type of people that are handy and willing and able to work on this yourselves, it will most likely get quite expensive. I hope this helps a little. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any other questions!! Good luck!
DonnieDarko727 we bought a 2013 Coachmen Encounter 36BH which has a hunk house for the kids. That was the biggest reason we sold the old one. Plus it’s nice to not be fixing things every time we turn around! We bought it with about 10,000 miles on it.

Glad it was helpful!
The slide cover is also the window awning! Pulls down and ties in.
Notw Wallace thanks! Yeah we figured that out!
You’re very welcome! My wife and I had to learn as well.
Notw Wallace 👍🏼
