NEED HELP - salt_water_frog - 02-16-2011 11:42

I am considering going back to a motorhome and have 'zero in' on a pre-owned
Bluebird or Wanderlodge with a 4 stroke engine. Are they the same or are they
two different coaches? Any and all comments would be appreciated. .Thank
you......................Julian

Hi Julian
Because the Blue Bird Wanderlodges (same coach)were made for 40 some years we would like to have more information.
And will be glad to share information with you.

Fred and Ernie............thank you for the info. Now what about engines? I just can't endorse a 2 stroke Diesel and am most likely a Cummins man. Any comments would be appreciate. While in Alaska last spring I hooked up with a Wanderlodge and a Winnebago Via. Both were very nice units with each having advantages of the other; like more room and a plush interior vs mileage. Thank you...................Julian

Are engines your only priority? What about size, age, cost?

There are Cats, Detroits, and Cummins in various Wanderlodges. There are
2-Stroke and there are 4-stroke. There are sizes from 31 feet to 45 feet. There
are ages from mid 60s to mid 00s. There are narrow bodies and wide bodies. There
are slides and slideless. There is a cost range from aroun $10K to around $300K.
Hard to give advice without knowing more about what you are looking for.

If you want Cummins- either a Lx or BMC will do quite nicely.
Ernie- 2 stroke
