Title: foretravel factory new total paint
Post by: esaulten on January 07, 2013, 07:40:08 pm
I just picked up my new paint job at the factory and couldn't be happier.  Was treated well and they fixed any fiberglass issues including new roof paint as part of the job.  Created new side fuel panels and did a big redo on inside.  Cheaper than a new coach but still makes it feel like new.  Elliot

Just curious as to why you needed to reprint an 08?  It looks beautiful.  David

David I had been privileged to buy a new Foretravel every two to three years for the past 10 years.  Things in life change both economically and fundamentally and I decided that the purchase of a new coach was not a rational thing to do at this time of my life.  However no one said I was completely sane, so a complete redo starting with paint was in order and worked for my economic situation.  I now have a virtually new motor home with very little investment in it over my initial purchase.  Its increase in resale value probably is worth the cost of the paint alone. So, for a child that has never fully grown into manhood this is my latest "TOY".    Elliot
