I think the data tag would be the proper way to end all the speculation about what this coach is or is not.

I think there are a couple of mystery Breakaways out there as listed in the data tag listing, perhaps this is one of them.

Rusty, I don't think I have ever seen a 30' Breakaway with the raised floor such as yours. Barth did improve the storage in mine over the previous years but still isn't the pass thru storage that you have.

Further, I don't think I have seen a 30' Breakaway with a 230 HP Cummins and 6 speed Allison and the Eaton rear diff such as mine. Been looking but--

The only other 30' Breakaway that I can think of that is very different is Beeoh Gillig/Cat chassis

Yep, the only four coaches I know of are the '94 28' Breakaways. Since mine (the prototype) was completed 4/93, I would have thought other later coaches would have that feature.

Not sure without some additional information but in my 91 30' Breakaway the bedroom floor is raised about 3 or 4 inches. You step up into the bedroom.

I think the raised floor in the bedroom is standard on all 30' Breakaways, I believe that that is for the cable and wire runs to the electrical panel at the foot end of the bed.

The seller provided me with the info from the data tag, but not a photo thereof. If I understand these data correctly, the coach has a 210 hp Cummins with a 4 speed trans. As with the '92 30' I had, this probably had air bags added after it left Barth.

In answer to the Generator, 6/26/07 Prior owner replaced entire Generator : I have the paper work of the cost but I do not know the reason.

9507-MOOO2-30BA-6B is out of the expected "sequence", with the "M0002" in a new series. This seems to coincide with the Barth RSV era.

Rusty, in as much as it was built JUL '95, I'm surprised it is not high-profile (with basement) and fitted with a six speed electronic tranny.

Ed, mine does not have a pass-thru either and it would be welcomed.

Hi All
I have a 95 regal gasser that has the large bsmt storage with a small height pass through.I love the storage factor...also under the lift up queen bed is a huge storage area Where the Breakaways'diesel engine would be located I am now in transit down to Palm Springs and Arizona and will see how everything goes as this is the first long distant trip I have taken in this coach

The Fords all have more basement room than the P30-32 frames dont they???

Rusty, when you say "air over hydraulic", what does that mean. My Breakaway has the airbags and it has shock absorbers.

Gillig chassis

There are three types of boost for hydraulic power brakes: Vacuum (most light gaso vehicles), hydraulic (Hydroboost), and air. In each case, the boost feature provides extra effort for the hydraulic brakes.

According to the documentation with my Aristocrat BB is the Aristocrat designation. 31BB or 34BB would be an Aristocrat. There is also no 6B floor plan for Aristocrat.

Not sure how I missed this posting when it made the rounds last fall/winter.

I have the 3-4" raise to the bedroom floor also. I am going to finish recarpeting the bedroom as soon as the weather breaks from it's 90's. I cant' resist the temptation to see what's inside the raised floor. Those of you have meet me know I have no clearance excess. I'll take a picture when I have it opened.

I got the front area recarpeted and new laminate in the galley and hallway earlier.

BA (beats me) any other guesses.

I think BS, BA, BB designated specific floor plans.
