A U295 would not have the same 450hp engine, it would have been the 8.3.

I know that but descriptions are not always accurate.

Our 98 had a 10 kw with the 3 cylinder Isuzu power tech generator, so different years have different engines on the generators

I notice that around the generator door on the front what appears to be screw heads or buttons for a bra.  Anyone have anything like that?  Also it looks like the carpet may have been removed in the toilet  and tile installed, but not everywhere like under the toilet and along the wall.  Some pealing of the decals on the back.  Probably a good buy at $50k unless there is a drive train problem.

Good eyes, Jerry.  Looks like the "bra" covered from base of windshield to bottom of front valance, with cutouts for the headlights and a separate section for the genny cover.  Since it's a Florida coach, I'm thinking it might have been a "Lovebug" screen?

Not ignorant at all, too many in Florida - see here What Are Florida Lovebugs?.  If bodies are left on your vehicle and not cleaned off promptly, body fluids will start to react with the paint and leave metal exposed.

The private toilet layout takes away the room to put in a washer/drier, correct?

Now this really fits the definition of TOO MUCH INFORMATION.
Hey Gary, when I answer a question, I REALLY answer the question.  You DID look up and read all the references in the foot notes, did you not?

Was tracking this coach out of curiosity. EBay oboe saying unsold? Thought it was a no reserve deal. Wonder if seller got cold feet?

"This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available."

Somebody in that local area probably made them an offer they could not refuse.

If for some reason it gets listed again, I'll be in Bradenton after August 19th and have gained a lot of experience and would be willing to check it out.
