 Gday...

It would appear it is therefore well-named at that price - Long Reach

cheers - John

Cloak, why buy new??
Loose 25% as soon as you are out of the driveway.

There are always a few of these around second hand, and the mechanicals are based on a commercial truck and will last for years.
Buy a second hand one in good condition, and add any extras you need.

My $0.02 worth anyway, and the way I will be going for our next vehicle.

Regards

Peter.

More like "out of reach" @ RL

I like PJ's idea too. We need an upgrade but I don't want to rape the Super just yet at least not to that extent.

Keep looking.

Hi,
You have probably already made your decision on this. I have purchased a 2014 Avida Longreach and unfortunately we have found that they have had serious suspension, steering and slideout issues for the past 8 years. We have had to address all of these issues at our own expense. After sales service on expensive items is non-existent . They totally ignore any requests knowing that owners will eventually have new suspension installed to stop the motorhome you have paid so much for self destructing.
My recommendation is that if you are seriously thinking of buying an Avida product, pay the $50.00 to join the WRV club (Winnebago RV Club). It is basically a closed forum. There are so many examples of poor service and frustrated owners here that you will have a better understanding of the way purchasers are treated. Then make your decision.....
