About

***Unlimited Miles*** Luxury Diesel Pusher!! Berkshire by Forest River :)


Our Motorcoach is a 39ft Diesel Pusher which is a BIG advantage over other gasoline Class A's. It's quiet and gets better mileage (up to 10 mpg) and handles the mountains much better. With 4 Big Slides our motorcoach opens up with considerable living space. We love its ease of driving and great visibility. The video cameras on each side and at the rear make for safe lane changes and easy maneuvering into campsites.

Our Motorcoach has approximate 7ft interior height, so no need to duck your head. It has a luxurious queen bed and two bunk beds. The dining table converts into a full size bed. There is also a sleeper sofa for two. For more places, we’ve got two twin blowup mattresses.
There is a large refrigerator/freezer and an extra downstairs freezer/refrigerator. It has a Onan 8KW diesel generator running off of the main diesel tank that make boon-docking easy. There are six large storage compartments for stowing kayaks, and other camping gear. A bike rack can be added with deposit and charge. The kitchen is setup with cookware. Paper plates is best. You’ll need shower supplies (shampoo and soap. We are currently offering Unlimited Miles which makes calculations easier.
Note: This is a family friendly Motorcoach. Smoking AND/OR Cats are NOT allowed because of family allergies. Please do not rent this Motorcoach if you intend to smoke inside or outside. Dogs are allowed with pet fees. Also, class A RV or large truck driving experience or commercial driving license is recommended, but not required. Rving Experience IS A Must.

If you have any questions, we are glad to answer them for you. If you have special requests, let us know and we will try to accommodate them when possible.

Some tips:
- before retracting the slides, sweep and do all your cleaning before you close up.
- after final clean put all dirty towels and sheets in shower.
-consider a propane refill at the campsite before you leave.
-check for a dump station at the truck stops and dump while filling up on your way home near drop off.
-use the hand siphon to refill the DEF while topping off diesel ( if there is not a station for DEF when you refill).
-pick a local truck wash to hit on your way back near drop off. Or hand wash :)
-there is a dump station at the Army Corp park near my house. $4 to visit. Takes about 30 minutes if there is no line.

 

Recommendations

We've traveled to races with our Motorcoach and it cannot be beat for convenience. We park at the race site and wake up rested and ready to race. Its been great for Track and Cross Country meets. Lately we've traveled to triathlons and park at the race site. Last minute gear changes, bathroom breaks, snacks and clothing changes are quick and easy. Afterwards, its so nice to take a quick shower (like the Pros) and go to the awards ceremony or get on the road. Everything is packed ready to go within a few minutes. Heck, several have even showered while I'm driving.

We've taken some great family trips to Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons, Moab, Durango, the Maroon Bells near Aspen, the Petrified Forest, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, Salt Lake City, Lake Tahoe, Carlsbad Caverns, The Biosphere 2, Angel Fire and Taos, Austin, Seaside in Florida, Dauphin Island in Alabama and many shorter trips. We've Boon-docked overnight at race sites in the parking lot. Usually we tow our truck (pictured) to get around at our destination, but some have suggested just renting a car once you arrive at the destination.

Having the Motorcoach at outdoor events is great for taking a break and getting out of the sun and heat as well as making food and having drinks available. It is a true luxury. Its also very convenient to have food prepared while driving. With the Motorcoach, meals are healthy and quick. And, we don't have to stop for fast food or restroom breaks. Come and try it out.

Moab is great with lots of stuff to do- Highly recommended. Destin is great if you love the beach. Edisto Beach near Charleston was beautiful. The Luxury RV Park in Vegas is top notch. Lake Tahoe is awesome with lots of stuff to do. Angel Fire RV Resort is well designed and top notch. Yellowstone National Park is soooo big. Pick one area to camp near, I suggest north side, and enjoy. Overnighting at Rest Areas and Truck stops are easy places to stop for the night when you are tired. If you set it up right, waking early in the AM with slides closed to get started covers miles during the easiest driving of the day.

Other things to note

Consider the following when planning out your trip:
1) Strive for approximately 450-550 miles/day.
2) Drive early in the day so that when you arrive at your destination, you and your party can get out and explore.
3) Clean up each time before closing the slides for travel.
4) Clean the windshield every time you fill up with diesel. (Extension and squeegee in front passenger compartment outside if needed).
5) only drive when you are well rested.
6) reach out and ask if you have questions.
7) Getting there is part of the vacation, so pick scenic routes.
8) Use the Outdoorsy messaging to contact us.
9) If you want to add more days contact us and Outdoorsy ASAP. We will try to accommodate you when possible.
10) Choose 50Amp service campsites when possible. 30Amp may be okay too but not preferred.
11) Upgrade your insurance for comprehensive coverage of everything inside/out.
12) Report broken items/problems ASAP. Surprising us at the end :( may result in a surprise for you too :(
13) Expect that there may be a hiccup or two along the way. We will work hard to assist you as much as possible. Its RVing and so we expect things to happen.

Allow several hours for final cleaning, washing, refilling, dumping, etc.
