Default Scenic Cruiser owners

Am I the only Scenic Cruiser owner left? I hardly ever see any posts of Scenic Cruiser owners. I believe the last year they manufactured the Scenic Cruiser was in 2006. Then they were replaced as the top coach by Friendship and now by TourMaster. I know my coach has been a wonderful coach, but I was wondering how other Scenic Cruiser owners are doing with their coaches. Sure feel bad that they stopped the production of them or else I would have bought me another one. All I see is the little logo picture of the forum on the top left of the screen of a Scenic Cruiser like mine except that is blue and mine is like a light gold, brown and some other color. Would like to hear from other owners to see how their coach has performed for them.

Any owners here ? I have a 2000 Scenic Cruiser. It has been in storage for 2 years due to a roof leak. I am about to tackle that job. Has anyone had experience with that?

Coach streamr. Good to see you. Can you tell me what fuel filters are used for engine. I am going to do my 1st oil change and I would like to change fuel filters while I’m dirty.

Can anyone tell me if changing transmission fluid is a do it your self job? Never worked on Diesel engine before.

Default New Scenic Cruiser Owner

Hello, we just bought a 2000 SC 8361. I was looking for forums about it and found this. I hope that it continues since it looks like it started back in ‘05.

On my way home I noticed a few issues. The parking brake light started flickering and now it stays on. I guess it is the switch and I also guess that it is under the parking brake release button. I also noticed that the cruise control do not work when I turn the headlights on. Is this a safety feature? When I got home I noticed a hydraulic leak behind the radiator. Is coming from a 1” line, is there an oil cooler on these?
It makes me mad because I checked the coach before buying and it did not show any of these signs. I am more worry about the leak than anything. Anyways, hope to hear from other GS scenic cruiser owners. Thanks

Hi, just bought a 98 Scenic Cruiser. The inside is in rough shape. Going to do some remodeling. Outside in good shape, previous 2 owners did nothing to keep it up, shame they are nice coaches. Have a speedometer issue, it and the odometer turn 10x faster than it should. Not sure what to do.

I still monitor this forum and post

As a reminder, it helps to have your Coach model/info in your Forum Signature.

A month ago I purchased a 95 Scenic Cruiser MPV-8340WFD in Phoenix AZ.
I was looking for an affordable rig that was road worthy. What I liked about this unit was that it has no slides, 34ft, Cummins 12v 5.9 with Allison 6 speed, new tires, low miles 86000, was being used regularly. The roof had recently been sealed professionally, and the interior was well taken care of. I knew I had cosmetic work to do inside and the paint was faded although most of the rig is unpainted fiberglass.
The seller was less than honest and bold face lied about a few things like cruise control working and a few other minor items. I put that on me for not fully testing everything.
The good news was the AC (roof and coach), generator, Fridge, water, gas, solar, engine, trans, roof, windows, floor all good working order.
I changed the oil and fuel filters, had my tire place torque the lugs and I was off on my first journey. We left from AZ and headed to VA, RI then to ME and back to AZ with no major issues and she drove like a dream.
Things I found out along the way, cruise didnt work and was completely disconnected, one of the leveling feet threw a spring while driving, the engine brake did not work, and I also figured out some mystery switches since there were no manuals provided.
I also learned how to stay between the lines with a widebody rig and what all it took to stop 23000 lbs
I replaced the rear air springs and am looking forward to more upgrades and adventures.
I paid $15k for her and am happy with the deal in spite of being lied to. I had a good feeling about the chassis and rig overall after having looked at quite a few up to $50k.
Upgrades will include navigation system, removal of picture tube tv up front, new wallpaper, carpet and maybe a paint job.
Thanks for listening.
