Howdy
Retired coal miner / trucker / farmer / logger here .
My last motorhome was a 1993 Kenworth W900L . Drove it 1.8 million miles as a professional tourist .
Gonna be nice to go touring with out dispatchers , destination schedules , and DOT .
SOH(Speaker Of the House) and I found a jewel .
2008 Forest River Lexington GTS 255 . 4,700 mi ,6.4l diesel , 6 new Michelins .
Stove and oven never used .Probably refrigerator as well .
Onan 3600lp gen had 12 minutes on the meter .
SOH has 4 more years to retirement so we will probably be confined to short trips for a while .
We've lurked here enough to find this forum invaluable .

Well, WELCOME and congratulations on the Lexington. What a find! Sounds like the previous owners never used it.
Safe travels and

Welcome to the forum from Missouri. Congratulations on your find. We bought one like that{very low miles} and been happy with it. Check the roof so you don't get any surprises with leaks.

Sad , actually . Folks bought it new . Drove MD-FL and back 2 times and then the Mr died and the Mrs succummed to dementia . Kids just wanted rid of it so they didn't have to pay storage .
