Depends if it's actually got a MH enclosure on it, or if it is a straight tractor registered in another state for recreational use? CA will NOT accept any straight truck/tractors anymore for so called RV usage. Grab a PO Box in Arizona and register it there or pull a Montana LLC and leave it...

We ran into the same confusion at each scale house or Motor Carrier officer in site, within CA with our W900 and a 40' Toybox. They will only acknowledge a motorhome conversion if the sleeper is a large box as a ICT sleeper, or a manufactured toter box on a large semi with all the ammenties you...

Been there where your at. M-11 Is the best way to go if your really needing that much torque & HP. M-11 has a little more more variance on HP settings than a 8.3. The 8.3 is a better design for Industrial use than truck applications. Your limiting factor is the rear end and trans and maybe even...

Ya, no matter what ya do to a 53' semi trailer, or what you call it, it's a commercial truck trailer with the DOT. We pondered doing the same thing, only way around it is a custom builder like Wildside or 5150 trailer that starts life new as a RV Conversion. At least for us Californians! Some...

We run a fleet of heavy equipment haulers in So Cal, worse freeways around. We've mounted centermatics on everything, and will continue to do so. As Geofkay stated to inspect truck for worn componets first, but these things are the bomb! Work excellent and have reduced premature tire swaps from...

That is the correct statement (NON COMMERCIAL CLASS A) in a lot of states now using large trucks for RV Towing. Not all states are as anal like California in checking and or in pushing enforcement, but would assume its heading your way soon like everything else started here! We were chased...

Yikes, I see he added that the "Yellow Beast" has spray foam for insulation on that ebay ad! Our older toyhauler had that crap and damm near burned down due to a minor electrical short from the tail lights in the door grounding out one night. It was like pulling a plane crash down the freeway in...

Speaking of Geofkaye, did you spring a deal with that "yellow" KW you were bloging with? A buddy of mine went to look at it and was interested, figured it was a nice starter, but now for that kind of money! Needed too much to come out ahead. Guess the agent said the owner was stuck on getting...

They're not bad for the money. Steel frame on 12'' centers, alum exterior (smooth). Actually not built bad. They just keep it simple, focused on a minimum of special effects. Were thinking of having them build one for us of which we will finish off the inside ourselves, just having them do all...

It's surly an interesting rig! Some work and it could produce a fairly nice coach. I agree, the paint color is a negative from the start for most. I would be suprised if your buyers could get financed anywhere nowdays. That vintage is a cash out <which is not likely in this economy> or someone...

Anybody know where Matthees conversions at at on the web? Don't know if I even spelled it correctly. Are they a decent builder of coaches?

Try Drive-Progressive Insurance 1-800-925-2886. I have a full blown KW 900 long hood three axle with them for RV use. They know it's a commercial vehicle used for sole usage as a 5th wheel RV hauler. Full Tilt coverage $320 a year!Alls they requested was to place "Private not for hire" decals on...

Checked into it. He lives by me. It's actually a camp trailer mounted on a truck (obvisouly). Clean retrofit of this nature and extremely nice rebuild on cab, but not really a "real toter" style rig in design. Guess it's all about what toots your horn?

We looked at doing the same thing. Problem is you own the truck out-rite, so most require a add on to your title or release of title to them for liability should you default. Contact Kevin at RV Lending, he assisted us with our stacker transporter, pretty easy to deal with and straight up with...
