using it as a mobile office (and sneaking in a fun
journey from time to time). It gets about 9.5mpg
and I believe I could pull a bus behind it if I wanted! I paid low $40's which is about what I had expected to pay for a five or six year old Chinook with a nicer interior, but fewer features
(slide). I am delighted thus far.
How much cost insurance? Thank You.

2005 Trail Lite 213 B-Plus w/ 6.0 Chevy
My gravel parking pad is next to the old barn and on a slight grade down into the rest of the property.
The upper part of the parking pad is flat-level, while the part the RV is parked on, is about 7* tilt. Got tired of doing the 'level backing on to board/etc' method, so I finally got around to doing a bit of polaski/shovel work, to lower one wheel & raise the other a bit.
Now sitting absolutely level, and really seems to blend in with the rest of the scenery now!

I read thru them, they had a good bunch of tips in there.
Should have printed it out I guess.
set out last week to camp in Central Oregon.....
managed to get not quite to the top of the Santiam Pass....when the motor first weakens considerably (limp mode?) then dies, restarts, moves along then dies twice more.....all in a non-shouldered 2 lane section. Very dangerous.
Heavy traffic, managed to fire it up one more time & move to safe off-road area.
Flat bed tow bill to nearest repair shop was just under $400....which the tow operated said (not related) but it turned out that he was over his weight limit 400#.
The 6L 213 goes in to the shop tomorrow. When the Reader of the Chicken Bones comes up with a diagnosis I'll post more woes.
