Jay,

I can only tell you why I looked for a LOOOOOOOONG time to find my 97
and I am sure others will have other reasons.

I wanted a "classic" bird and with researching, I found that the 97
chassis is basicly the same as the 93 (last of the LX series). This
chassis major difference was the lower rear floor which allowed for a
walk in closet and east-west bed.

Other than slides, there is almost no difference between the
mechanicals (series 60 etc) and the 93. Since no two birds are alike,
every time a 97 came up for sale we looked at it, no matter where in
the country. We saw this one and we were sunk.

Another reason I wanted a 97, this is the last year of riveted birds
and big headlights ( I can *REALLY* see at night while driving).

To us this was the ultimate crossover model, all the goodies of a 93,
all the looks of a 97 and a whole lot less money.

You asked about prices, as we bought ours 3 years ago with only 25k
miles and traded our much newer Monaco in on it.

I'd be pleased to discuss more with you, just e-mail me, spambate at
whata dot com.

One caveat, make sure ALL recalls are or have been performed, some
were very important.

I guess I never answered your original question. No cons only pros IMHO.
