Thank you Bill for your advice. Yes my husband, Rollin and I like the older ones. We will be looking for $quanderlodge on ebay to see her pics. It has been fun looking at these on line and hopefully someday soon we will get to meet one personally. Best wishes on the sale of yours.

Hi all, yes the name $quanderlodge is the present name of the coach,
itbelonged to the previous owner, butit willbe put it up on ebay to the highest bidder soon LOL.
I love this part of the country but like anywhere it has its pitfalls, parts availability, and comardareship with other owners. We have attended a few rallies but travelled many miles, the closest was about 1000 miles.
We have used our coach somewhat, not anywhere as much as I would like to, and I don't really care about the cost of fuel, (presently $1.32per litre)the bus is to be driven LOTS, and it likes it best that way. We took it to a friends 50th anniversary in Lethbridge Alberta, return trip about 2000 miles, what a pleasure to drive and stay in.
We have two dogs and don't have to worry about places to stay and things like that.
Without the trailer, the bus feels like a "Porsche", it has lots of giddyup and go,not so with the trailer behind.
With the PT's I
do not know of the gear ratio's, but with the FC, it depends where one lives. Living in the hilly country of BC, the 4:11 gear ratio is tootall, and from what I understand the 5:29 would be too low, I think the 4:88 or 4:56 would be the best all roundcruiser, both on the flats and in the hills.
Jim - yes 78MPH top speed at 2600 rpm, and with new shocks, new tires and everything else that seems to work right, it does not wander or steer bad either - a real pleasure to drive.
Deborah - don't overlook these older coaches, they are nice, and some folks have done some nice modifications to them.
There are enough experienced people on the net here to look at a coach with you, and don't be shy in asking, most of us would be more than willing to go along and help you out.
Good luck - don't forget to look in those barns that you pass either, who knows there might be one hidden
away.
