Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Bought an RV...finally


Well I did it and I'm happy, I had it inspected at an RV shop not far from where I bought it. They only found a few small things that needed to be fixed like the Smoke detector needing a new battery among a few others. It is a 1998 Fleetwood Flair 26ft with 19500 miles. I drove it home (170 miles) and it had lots of power and and did well, it has a chevy 454, but I don't know what kind of transmission...I know I should have looked into it. Now that I own it, I was wondering if anyone would know if it might be an Allyson Trans., or how I can check on it.

 

Thank in advance for any help,

Roger

Congratulations! I think you'll like it. If I remember right, it has a lot of storage for its size and I still see plenty of them on the road and for sale from time to time. I'll always remember the one we looked at because it was the prettiest color of a light green. Enjoy!

 Thanks SnowGypsy, I am taking it to an RV shop to have things checked out ( even though it had a pre-purchase inspection) and serviced.
