After much research and indecision, we decided to buy a 28 foot lightly used 2011 Coachmen Freelander. It is the vehicle we liked from the outset, the same model we rented, and the model we kept coming back to as the front runner. We actually bought our RV from the rental dealer, who retires them at just over 20,000 miles and maintains his vehicles really well. The owner of Road Bear is a nice guy, not a sleazy dealer, and he sells to the dealers so had a much lower price point than any of the dealerships. In addition, he was able to get the vehicle detailed and ready to go in a day, where the dealerships were saying they could get the RV running in a week or so. We were beyond ready to go and couldn’t imagine waiting any longer than necessary.
Suddenly it was all happening very fast. We inspected the RV and put down a deposit. We needed to tie up loose ends at home and get packing. Departure date for the MonkeyTrek: April 15. Yes, we were fleeing on tax day.
