Oh I understand that but I just didn't know about they were acquired. Frankly, I thought COUNRY COACH went out of business in the early '00's.

Looks like a very comfortable ride for your upcoming travels. Sure hoping that 600hp is enough.  ;)

Is this a used Country Coach?  From my limited research it appears that Winnebago is no longer making RVs under the Country Coach name although they still support old Country Coach units.  It appears what they really wanted was the Country Coach plant.

If you want Cliff,  I can get you one of these to put on the front of your bus so it will ride like a real bus so you can run with the Big Dogs.   :D

Cliff had to buy something he didn't know how to work on so he could retire.

No, Cliff bought something he doesn't have to work on all the time so he'll have more time to work on our 2 strokes.  8)

He could claim it was a highly modified Model 01 with one of those on the front. Highly modified.  :o

Must be a misprint. Didn't you mean "run with the Big Birds"?
You don't have to believe everything you think.
