Anyone had a FC and a PT? - Scott Forman - 12-22-2005 05:51

Has anyone here had a FC and then upgraded to a PT?

I know the PT is a superior animal, but I am looking for opinions as to
whether the difference is substantial enough to justify the difference
in cost in the units. I have a wonderful FC that doesn't have a thing
wrong with it, but I am intrigued by the PT's (or SP's for that
matter). It looks like to find a PT in the same condition as my FC I
am going to have to spend maybe up to twice as much. That's a big
difference. I am not a full-timer.

Opinions?

Thanks

Scott, I have a PT and I dont consider it superior. I just never
like Cat. Every year the 90's model years get more affordable and
the early 80's are bottomed out. If you are happy, wait. I saw a
Pristeen 87PT which a friend bought for $35,000. I would love a
FCwith all the chrome and a Cummins M11/10speed Roadranger

---RE: FC v. SP We had 77FC33 then went to a 90SP.....Night
and day difference......SP drives like a dream!! Luxurious etc.
But sometimes, I wish I had the extra $100,000 differnce back and my
old BULLETPROOF 77FC33 back..........but then again, the 90SP is
usually always the prettiest and nicest rig in the rv park unless a
newer PT shows up! In summary,......you only get one trip...spend
the money before your kids get it!!!
That's my two cents.
Merry Christmas.

Greg
If your friend would like to make a quick turnaround $10k profit,
let me know. I will wire the money. Subject to inspection of course.

I know that owner of the $35k BB...you could offer him 30+K more, and I
don't think he'd sell. Or would you Curt??

Bill, I'll forward him the note but he's one of those rich guys that
updated with new electronics and lcd tv's. My point to Scott was that
I think there are deals out there.

I know Greg, and you are right and that sounds like a heck of a deal.
