My Barn Find

You here of people finding a L88 67 Corvette that has been stored away for years in mint condition. I wasn't that lucky.
My wife has scoliosis and can't ride in my truck for any distance so we decided to buy a motor home and found one that is a barn find or garage find. This camper is a 2007 with 5000 miles on it the generator had 23 hours on it and had been stored since 2009. Every thing about it was pristine. It still had the clear plastic on the floor even the frame was clean the V10 engine didn't have a drop of oil on it the stove had never been turned on.
We have a trip to the Grand Cayon planed this fall and in the mean time some small trips and friends will be using it some.
Oh we WILL be keeping our HC. I would much rather use the 5er but wit her back we just can't.

Hi

My wife has a similar problem after a fall last December. Our TV is a 4 door Silverado with that large back seat. The last week of this month we are going to try having her ride in the back seat where she can stretch-out cross ways and see how that works.
