Gardner,
The bottom of the mirrow has caught a many fellow not thinking. I bet if you had
a room of 100 bird owners over 75 could tell and show you their scars. An there
are plenty of other places in and around a Bird to ding the noggin. I wear a
Marine Corp summer hard hat for protection.

Todd and Sarah,
My wife and I flew to Florida from New Jersey to see James'
coach. We visited him on Sunday and did a complete walk through with
James and took it for a drive. I also had a person I hired to
evaluate it come with us. I didn't ask his permission to use his
name so I won't mention it, but he was a knowledgeable and provided
some enjoyable conversation along with his advise. The coach is a
real winner and the price is definitely low for the condition. My
wife and I have only tent camped and gone for a cross country trip
in a van (a long time ago) so we are new to the BIG RV. We basically
chickened out at in the end. It was only a short time ago that my
wife and I came to an agreement on buying an RV, and James' coach
was such a great buy that I had to see it. In the end I need to do a
lot more research and learn a lot more about the systems before I
dive in. I will buy one, but maybe not this year.
James' coach is a magnificent example of a Bluebird. The interior
is impeccable and the exterior is in unbelievable condition. I
climbed up to the roof in very hot weather with the sun bearing
down, and the surface was barely warm to the touch. James used a
paint he obtained form some NASA friends that somehow insulates from
the heat.
The bottom of the side mirror is ecstatically the same height as
my forehead, and I have the scar to prove it!
So you owe me for declining to purchase. Keep the forum updated
with your adventures. You have a great coach.
