Anyone out there seen the 1996 23 Ft. unit that was for sale a few months ago on e bay? She is the sister ship to my unit (I say this because the outside looks almost exactly the same from the outside), and was previously employed by the texas department of weights and measures. I would love to ask a few questions about it to its new owners.

Here, try this link. The respondent has a coach like yours and he is talking about about another coach from Texas too.

And in this link the new owner of that coach is talking about his purchase.

Kris and Tina, I bought the 1995 23 foot on ebay back in September. Looks identical to yours as you can see. I don't recall the 1996 model though

They were ordered at roughly the same time...Your unit has the old style dash (which i think is better because you have far superior visability) and a nice awning. Hey...when you hit your turn signals at night, does your running lights on the side of the coach flash at the same time? I always wondered if this was intended or a crossed wire or something.

This coach has the same paint scheme, but look at the stepped roof line



this is a 1992 unit.

You can see the OLD RV Trader Ad for this coach from when it was sold here

What do ya know...This must be a State of Texas Barth as well..Snazzy corrugated aluminum sides too.

Yep my lights on the side flash when the turn signals are on. Took me awhile to learn what all those switches were on the dash. Learning has been fun. I haven't seen the dash differnece but will take notice of that. I just turned 14,500 miles on last week. Plan on a lot more miles in the future

I am attempting to follow directions and post a pic of



my dash..

I trust you have figured out what all of the switches mean? If not I can explain..Do you have a thermostat on your coach or do the heaters work independantly like a hotel room?

Here is the Barth with the fresh paint...sorry for the glare

Looking good! Did you change the color of the stripe? It looks darker. Mine is alot like that except your "Barth" is over the headlight and mine is centered under the windshield. I figured out the switches .... the ones I didn't know were the "two spotlights on either side in the back......docking lights I guess they are considered. Thanks.....your Barth looks good. You are right about the dash being different in mine. Thanks for the pic. Gorman

It looks green in this picture

LOVE the green! also I am missing the chrome spare tire holder that used to be mine....I saw it on the coach in the original pics but someone removed it and the spare holder off the back beside the back door. I would LOVE to fine one and put it back original. I can see yours in the pic. By the way my heat is seperate like a hotel one

What is the third "light" in the back beside your door? Or is that a light? OR just a porch type light.

The stripe was changed to green but under certain lights it looks more olive. The light beside the door is a A.C. hallogen light just like the ones on your sides which is controllable from above the side entrance door. The spare tire holder should be easy enough to find at your local truck supply place or r.v. store for that matter....anyone else have a better suggestion?
