I love country coach. In my opinion, they we're the best built coaches and have stood the test of time. What was happening in central Oregon in the 90's was pure magic, the guys who came from Caribo and started Safari, Monaco, Beaver, and Country Coach, and Marathon. Better than anything that came out of Elkhart Indiana
Winnebago needs to bring country coach back, although it would compete with their newmar brand which is likely why they won't.
True, it's sad that only Marathon is still in business.
Hey James your tour of all these rv's is much better than these so called salesman, keep up the great work 👍😎
Thanks Rick!
James we appreciate everything you teach us, keep up the good work.
I know I do too! Fellow Full time RVer and mechanic!
Thanks, will do!
Another outstanding video also I have been lucky enough to have James work on my coach... He is the man!
Hey Thanks!!
Oh, my. I think you just established a new shower sizing standard!!! Nice work, as always!
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for educating the masses, and that coach should be a blue print for how they are made. Beautiful Coach
No doubt!
Always good to see you showing us around along with your lessons in taking care of things. Your roof work has been most helpful.
Any advice on not scuffing up the roof. I wear soft rubber light grey bottom shoes but I always seem to scuff it up. I think the dust and fine metal (rusty dots aftter rain) falling from the sky doesn't help.
Shoe covers or I sometimes go up in my socks
Excellent inspection especially on the roof...I previously owned 2 Class A's. I spent many hours on the roof doing P.M. work....
Thanks for watching! :)
These look amazing.
Nice looking motor home. Thank you for doing the videos, I always learn something and you explain things very well. Stay safe and healthy.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Country Coach did make a nice coach. Thanks for all your expertise. Keep those videos coming
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Always a great inspection!!
Good job
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Nice intrigue. Thanks for the tour James. Happy trails!
Thanks!
There really was an intrigue in this video ... lol ...great coach and great video
I love all your video's, your hard work and common sense. Thank you so much for sharing and best wishes from the Midlands of England...
Thank you very much!
(I love England!)
Really enjoy and learn what to look for with the roof inspections. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
I Love the roof inspections! I am learning so much
Thanks for watching! :)
The only thing that I would like to see you add to your videos would be an estimate of the cost of the work that needs to be done.
I'm two years away from retirement and looking at trading my off for something bigger and better, so I tried to keep in mind repairs that might need to be done.
Thanks, you are truly a master at your trade.
Thanks for watching! These are customer units so I don't have permission
Nice work again James. What a pleasant surprise to see a well design roof hold up in the touch AZ climate. It will be interesting to see the asking price. One more public service/safety announcement - it's a good idea to wear long sleeves, hat, and sun screen when out doors as melanoma can shorten a vibrant life.
Agreed! You do have a vibrant, important part in society, your job and community!
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Beautifully built M H thanks much for showing,
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
love how you put your tool box on you bus
Thanks... appreciate the look. My coach has similar opposing slides in the living area and yes, the space makes you forget your in a vehicle.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Great roof inspection. The rear sewer vent is probably for the washer/dryer. Also I think some of those coaches came with the forward roof ac unit able to run on the inverter so over the road you didn't need to run the generator if extra cooling was needed in addition to the dash air.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
The Karl Childers of Class A motorhomes. 🤣🤣 Wish my front end would slide out like that. Would make generator service so much easier.
The washer/dryer was the reason for the vent near the back cap.
Every roof has its own story allways interesting
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Wow that's huge living area
James thanks for all the great info. My next purchase of an rv will 100% be influenced by your Information that you have shared.
Glad it was helpful!
I own a 1991 Country Coach Affinity 40 footer and it's just about as rock-solid as the day it was built. Mine has no slides, but it is the 102" wide-body and is very roomy inside. My only real complaint is the desert sun hasn't been kind to the clear coat over the fancy paint job, but overall it's as strong as an M1 Abrams Army Tank. It's sad they quit building these.
Thanks for watching!
Amazing coach for the age.
Agreed
Very nice Rig. You do a great job as a salesman.
Wow, thanks! but I'm just a tech
I enjoyed it. Thanks James
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for the roof education.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
My husband and I started watching your videos and wow! Very educational and you just enough information. We have been on and off RVers all our lives and are thinking about retirement and traveling again. So Thank Thank you for teaching us much needed information. But we are curious as to your favorite RV outside of a bus. Guessing not Winnebago ? Please comment if you have time
Tiffin
this guy is great.. come work in New England
Thanks for watching!
Appreciate it James. I do like those CCs!!
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Now I wants me a country coach
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
WHOA!! I didn't realize Country Coach was kinda known for water damage!? Please tell. Oh, if you do the Gerard slide topper on this Coach please make a video. I can't find any on UA-cam. Good video as always!
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
James, I really enjoy your Channel. Very comprehensive. I don't think you can beat the beauty of that wood in the Country Coach. The only curious thing that you said was that you felt that a fiberglass roof was just as good as an aluminum roof. I don't know if I would agree with you on that one. Yes if repairs are needed, an aluminum roof repair would be more extensive. However, I don't think you can beat a Newell roof.
Glad you enjoy it!
That is a remarkable roof! Gorgeous Coach. Is it on the market?
Nice rig!!! Thx for sharing.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Nice unit.. thanks for lap sealant link.. thanks.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
I always wanted to buy a Country Coach Veranda unit, but with it out of production for years now, was concerned I would never be able to get parts for it.
Valid fear
Awesome coach
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
MASSIVE!!!! PURTY, REAL PURTY🤩👍😍🙋♀️🇨🇦‼️
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
I have a 2016 KZ E17FKTH. The problem is on roof. Awning side. The awning drip edge mount that screws into the trailers roof. The screws keep backing out. So I put silicone in them and screw them back in. But the problem I have is they are stripping out. I asked the dealer and the manufacture but like always the dealer was a little more helpful they said it may not be a wooden stud but a C channel stud so a long Ribbit would work a lot better. I said what about taking the ceiling apart inside to look what’s in there. He said as a tech I don’t recommend it because it is a pain in the butt for us and we know what we’re doing to put those ceiling panels back in. So since you’ve done so many roofs in your 20 years what could you recommend. Because I really love this camper I take care of it I watch you other channels to keep up with the maintenance on it it took me six months and a lot of research to find one that will do exactly what I bought it for. To carry my Trike motorcycle and to save on hotel cost to the places I like to visit.
I would first drill holes inbetween the exisiting holes and see if there is anything there first.
I have heard other people use tooth picks to help a screw grip a hole that gets too big. Silicone is soft and won't hold a screw. I would drill it so the hole is clean and then dip toothpicks in epoxy and jam a few in the hole. Wait for it to cure then drill small hole and put the screw in.
Great video James. That’s a very nice coach. Looks like it has been well taken car of Also it looks like it has more sq ft than my first house did haha.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Maybe the roof vent at the back is for the dryer ? still wondering where you got that huge dog from 🤔 thanks for the tour
That is a really nice rig. With such a nice roof where does the not uncommon water damage come from?
I, for one, have only ever worried about you cracking your skull on the shower.
🦅😎🇺🇸👍 great info as always 👍
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Thx man
very nice for 2008
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Thank you for so many great videos! I have a new Southwind with an TPO roof. What should be used on it to protect it? I was thinking about using 303 on it.
Nice job god bless
Thank you! You too!
Like your video, you do a great job.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
That's a nice looking rig! Thanks for the video
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Thank you so much for educating the RV community. What brand of roof wax do you recommend for a Winnebago Journey
Always go with manufacturer recommendations
Nice unit
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Just finished the video. For being 16 years old that things nice. And yes I can see that things got a lot of room. If you’re claustrophobic that one would be good for you to get. I’m sorry but I’m afraid of heights so when your arm reaches out I close my eyes. Lol.
It's really not as scary as it looks
I don't know why you would say your not much of a salesman, have you seen some of the 'professionals' selling RV'S on UA-cam???.... Most of them don't know there product very well at all, which includes some very high profile RV centres. I would buy off you everyday all day!
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Oh yeah, a couple and their dog could EASILY full time in this rig. Very nice.
Good job showing it off.
Did everyone see how easy the blinds went up and down??
I gotta figure out out as they can be a pain in the Bee You Tee Tee ....
If ya know what I mean....Haha ..LOL
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Nice review dont know if id like the toilet on the slide though just more stuff to break!
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Rear vent on roof is likely for the washer drain
James what is the difference between the gel coat roof and the fiberglass roof material on the Winnebago?And if I understand Dicor shouldn't be used on the Winnebago roof but the Country coach has Dicor on it. Proflex Geosel should be used on the Winnebago not Dicor,correct? Thanks for another great video. Jeff
We are about to buy a 2006 Country coach inspire, 36 ft RV, is it hard to get parts ? I am little concerned about it
I own a 2003 Country Coach, could you elaborate on the water leaks? I haven't found anything wrong with ours, but might be looking in the wrong places. I'm the 2nd owner up until this summer it never sat outside unless it was being used parked in a heated garage. In fact it has never been winterized and we're talking Ohio weather. We are moving to TN soon our new home has a 30X50 RV garage so again it'll be parked inside.
Have you ever installed a pvc roof. And if so could you please make a video on doing it. I want to make sure that when I do mine that I do a really good job and make it smooth and clean looking.
I have many videos showing rolled roofing install
I have a typical rubber roof (2021 Thor Outlaw) that is garage kept.
How long should the roof last? Do they dry out in a garage?
Hey James, your videos amazingly helpful for a novice like myself. In another video you did, you pointed out a vent cover your did care for. Well have two like the one you pointed out that need replace. What's a good vent cover to use?
The combination vent and cover in 1. MaxxAir
I built chassis’s for Country Coach 1998-2006
Cool!
I would defiantly buy a Country Coach if I was full time and needed a diesel pusher.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Never mind
Where's the washer dryer?
No storage under the main bed but is there engine access? Is that a feature no one offers anymore?
There is access
am i able to walk on my 2022 forest river gray wolf black label toy hauler?
The average adult should be able to
It's a shame that CC went under, they built darn nice coaches.
Yes, CC goes under but so many crap builders are still around. Go figure.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Is that the vent for a rear washer/dryer drain?
What kind of collapsible ladder is that?
Nice , I would guess that rig is fairly heavy . Nice editing .
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
James love the country coaches do you think allegro coaches are comfortable I'm looking at both just hope I can afford it the gas or the diesel should I say when that time comes when I meant tiffin allegro boss of that same year
Tiffin products are among my favorites
@@AZExpert I'm leaning towards tiffin only because the only good place to work on a country coach is Oregon and I'm in Michigan
I'm surprised it doesn't have a stacked washer/dryer.
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
Washer/Dryer?
He shows the combo unit.
Love all your videos but man you get close to the roof edge. I learn something from everyone of them. Be Careful
Vent is Washing Machine vent... ?
Is it for sale?
I think it might have sold. I don't sell these, just inspect
Pretty decent coach kinda a deal breaker the tv 📺 is too small lol 😆
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
If you fall off the roof, that's on you.
Please post the video of it ...
It will be in the bloopers
2 slim or 2 curvy people in the shower.....lol
Very nice coach...
Hey, Thanks for watching! :)
You need a haircut, you hippie!! Lol.
Just trying to keep my head shaded
It dose look like your going to fall off!🤣
