NEW PRICE!!! 2006 Roadtrek 190 VERSATILE SE 4x4 with 144,800 miles $45,000 OBO

This is not your father's, and much less your grandfather's, RV but instead the perfect vehicle companion for daily errands, overland travel and/or off-road adventures. This is a fully functional self-contained motorhome built on the Chevy Express 3500 Van chassis 6.0L gas V8. 12mpg. Original owners. Non-smokers. Pets. A few bump and bruises due to off-road use and dogs, would be glad to take pictures of blemishes for those interested. Title in hand. Runs well. Just drove through Central America (Phoenix to Panama and back) Sep-Oct 2013 without issues. Maintenance records and appliance owner's manuals available.

One of a kind vehicle and WILL GO FAST!

Have been a fan since you posted the off road video years back.

Maybe I missed it in all that info: does it have a low range transfer case?

Hmm...if I end up buying it I will get new decals that say "Off RoadTrek".

Thanks for being a fan. It is a VERY CAPABLE OFF-ROAD vehicle. And the interior craftsmanship by Roadtrek is well known as an excellent product.

Nonetheless, the transfer case has 2H, N, 4H & 4L.

Hope that helps and again thanks for being a fan.

Still here? What happened to your three offers of $35k?

All three claimed they found other choices. I am not a sales person, not to mention I have NEVER sold anything in my life to anyone. Because of that, I guess I struggle with convincing others this is a great vehicle and now a steal. Interestingly, some of the comments I have gotten is that I am "too honest" with my ad. Not sure what that means but being "too honest" makes no sense to me, as being honest should be enough.

Ok I'm confused. Your thread title and first post says $30,000 but in your last few posts you say $55,000 and then reduced to $50,000. So which is it?

not that hard to figure out, $55k was the original asking price. He has reduced the price a couple times over time.
the OP has updated the headline and original post with current price but not throughout the thread.
At $30k it is a sweet deal for someone!

Thanks for pointing out the timeline. Because of your input I went back and made changes to the thread title as to not confuse others. Thanks for the endorsement as well, much appreciated.

$30,000 NEW PRICE!
