Nick CagleThanks for posting the Data tag when listing this coach for sale. The Tag indicates that this coach is 32 feet instead of 34 feet.

bill hDoes anyone know the torque figures of the Cummins 230 hp ISB and the 240 hp ISC?
I wonder how a 32' Regency with 240 hp and a 32' Breakaway with 230 hp would compare uphill with a heavy toad.

Nope, not our window, we have

ccctimtationMy buddy looked at the coach last Sunday. Said in general it was nice, needed cleaning and had Pergo or similar flooring in the galley.

ccctimtationAmazing what benign neglect can accomplish, it is good for aloe plants but not for coaches. In some fairness I did not call ahead but I did not want to discover covered problems. All batteries dead. Genset coughed but would not catch and run. Never got the engine to start no matter how many batteries or chargers were attached. Probably a problem with the ground but?
No gas struts held the cabinet lids open. Pocket door between galley and head not moveable. All basement doors in good condition and all cabinets in basement in good condition and dry. It has a tow bar and brake buddy in one of the holds. 50 amp cord as well as cable TV and telephone cables included. Electrical holds have dehumidifier packets.
All seats, couches, beds etc. need to be rebuilt with new foam. Replacement of carpet will be needed soon. There is staining where the zebra bled out or maybe it is just coffee that was spilled and not well cleaned.
The roof coating is getting thin but seems in satisfactory shape until one gets other things checked off.
Could not find the code on the tires but they looked sound, on Alcoa wheels.
Disappointing but still better than the competition viewed to date. Wife is totally unimpressed.

Nick's coach and mine both are 32' and both have a GVWR of 29,640 lbs. That is 3,890 lbs more than that coach. That coach has a spartan chassis and ours has the gillig chassis. Where do you think the difference is at? My coach loaded with full fuel, full propane, full fresh water, with Anne and I aboard with everything we travel with was about 28,530 lbs. And weighed a little over 26,000 lbs with full fuel and propane, no water, and with me aboard. It is hard to believe that the gillig chassis would weigh more than 3,000 lbs than the spartan chassis. Thoughts?

ccctimtationThe Cummins is 1000 lb. heavier from what I can find. Could be the GVWR is stomped into the ground. I remember discussions about some MT weights approaching GVWR. on various brands and/or configurations.

devoloYou couldn't get the genset engine to start or the genset and main engine? Did you take it for a spin?

Dealer fiddled for about 2 hours connecting additional jumper batteries and chargers but nothing started. Gen came closest but mostly it just sent out clouds of partially combusted diesel vapors.
Forgot to mention it has a Pac-brake but it was totally unnecessary yesterday.

devoloBad fuel maybe? Since nothing would start.
