1995 35' 250 HP cummins
I am looking at a 1995 diesel pusher model. I have only seen the advertisement on Craigslist here in Charlotte, NC. Entrance is immediately behind the passenger seat. Owner says it has a propane fuel genset. Is this likely to be a Gillig chassis? Has about 40,000 miles on it. I have owned diesel cars and boats, but am very unfamiliar with rear engine bus chassis. Any special concerns I should have?

Looks like a new one for us. Nice looking coach, and a good sales video.

Sure looks like the larger "Breakaway"; there was a 34' that sold some time ago here in FL.

The dash is Breakaway, but there were very few with the Cummins 8.3L (AFAIK, the 5.9Ls topped at 230 HP).

In any event, there seems to be a lot of "blending" of models during Barth's last years...

I went to Denver NC and looked at this coach about 4 years ago. It is not a breakaway, I believe it was a monarch or xl or something like that. It seems to me that it was on a spartan chassis also. This one had been discussed before.

It is the one you saw in Denver, NC. Data Tag is 9408-3927-34MI-9B. So, it is a Monarch. Central rather than roof air, 8.3 Cummins power. Spartan Chassis with leveling. I appreciate everyone's willingness to help out a newbie.
