My first motor home

[Lindaloo]

You know, I thought it looked real familiar. I think I LOST it back in 2000. I am getting older and you know how my memory is fading. Well, one minute it was in my driveway and the next it was gone. Oh, I forgot to report it, but, yes siree, it's mine. LOL

By the way, if you're driving to Virginia to see George you might as well drive up here to the Burgh and put that 40' wonder back in my driveway!!!!!

I was waiting on this. LOL!!

Wow, I think you got a "steal". Literally!

I think so too. The towing company does not have anything in it, except for the towing and storage. My boss wanted 5,000 for it, but since it was me, he let me have it for that. He knows I will not fix it then sell it for profit. I did all the paperwork on it and was able to get all the applications for title. I had a friend of mine with the Moss Point police dept run the VIN number through NCIC to make sure that it is not still coming up as stolen. I do not want to take it to the Alabama tag and title office only for it to come up stolen, which in turn they would have the county pick it up yet again as recovered/stolen, then we would lose it because another towing company would have it. That is exactly how we ended up with it. The only thing that really puzzled me was why the original owner in Utah would not give me the name of his insurance company so I could retrieve the actual title. The man at the RV business here in Theodore said it was "abandoned" on his property. He tried to get the paperwork (like I did) but when he tried to title it it came up as stolen. He was not too smart because who would abandon a 40 foot motor home? I would have had it run nationally instead of just through the state of Alabama and then went from there. He would have had the motor home free and clear because the original owner did not want it. I still believe there was some shady deals going on between those two. Why would someone NOT WANT it??

The inside does not look as good as the pics in the link, though. The man at the RV place was stripping it and was going to redecorate it the way he wanted it. He REALLY has bad taste. I MIGHT have to spend about 3500.00 to restore the inside to mint condition. In the end I will have a motor home worth way more than what I paid for it. It only has 30,000 miles on it too.

David, I will not be able to go far in that thing. lol. It has a 70 gallon tank on it.

Houston is closer than Virginia!! I guess I know who you like best.

LOL David. I guess I will have to take a major tour of the US to pick everybody up and go park in Karan's driveway.

Yep, I'll fill that sink up with ice, set up the bar on the counter next to the sink (bourbon, gin, vodka, captain morgan, crown royal and lots of wine. I figure we can put the keg on ice outside under the canopy. I'll get some ribs, sausages and steaks and do some grillin!!!!! You know how all you southerners say "Come on Down"? Well I'm sayin "Come on UP"!!!!!!!!

Linda you're gonna have a ball with "my" motor home. LOL

We have some nice locations here near the beach where you can set up camp (read: party) with you motor home.
