...but I guess it's time to move on. As much as I have loved my SuperNova, my wife and I aren't getting any younger. So we have decided to give an A class a try for a few years. On Wednesday, we are trading the SuperNova for a new Winnebago Journey Express. I am looking forward to a new adventure but am going to miss this forum and those who participate on it.

I want to thank all of you who have made this little fraternity fun and knowledgeable. Thanks for sharing your experiences and I hope I helped a few of you along the way.

I'll drop by from time to time to check on my old buddies here. I know I will certainly be a small player in the Winnebago forum community.

Travel safe and have fun.

I meant to post a reply earlier, but I joined TC a couple of weeks ago in saying farewell to Gulfstreaming. We traded in our Super Nova for a
Monaco Dynasty up at Bretz RV in Missoula Montana. We loved the GS and our time with it, but we felt we needed a little more room.

As an aside, our coach sold in less than a week to a couple that was thrilled with it. They will get many miles and hours of pleasure from it.

I echo TC's comments on the quality of the forum and the assistance we all shared with each other, and I too will follow the forum as a lurker.

Good luck to you all, and hope to see you on the road somewhere..

Well........I just can't believe you folks have moved on. :( I always looked forward to the knowledge I picked up ( :roll: as well as the fear factor worring some of the bad things might happen to us) for all the postings you did. Best of luck to you both. Please keep checking in since I'm sure you still know alot more than most of us out there. Thanks and please keep checking back in!

TC, good luck on your new unit! We moved from our SuperNova to the Allegro Red last year for several reasons, but I still like to check this forum to see what is happening. The RED has been a great unit for us and I don't plan to change until I get too old to enjoy!

Sorry to see some good members move on, but that is the way life is.

Mary and I are thinking the same thing. Now that we have most everything fixed or corrected, we want a smaller one. Something less cumbersome.

What could I expect to get on the open market for my 2008 6362 w/ 25,000 mi? I see figures of $120,000.00 and up. I would not mind finding a fast mover too. Wanted to get new one in the fall.

Thanks for all your help TC, you ARE the helpful motorhome guy. I've did the suspension stuff, and been very happy with the performance of the "Carrot" as we call it. I'm not un-sure I won't sour on the vehicle someday, but I've watched many many very expensive tow rigs with problems at the races over the last twenty years. Ran an 83 Pace Arrow for 10 years, towed a lot and only had the tow truck once, in my OWN driveway LOL All coaches take mechanical care, and proper sorting makes it all better. I'm not sure what i would replace mine with if I needed a replacement. Currently my blackwater flush sprays water on the floor in the coach??? but still did it's job. Looks like the tank will have to come out to repair, but it's race season, and just dump and spray down the John like we used to to clean it. the 8.5 mpg towing still makes me happy. this forum also makes ownership better. Thanks to all that help HJ :D
