Re: Thoughts on a 1992 Silver Anniversary Reply #25 – September 10, 2018, 03:07:56 pm Curious: Looking at my nose & the 300 nose, there is no stainless bumper. Does the 300 have a traditional steel bumper back of the fibreglass nose? Looks pricey if there is a front end 'whoops'. Quote Selected

Even though they appear similar, completely different front end "cap"design.On the U300, a "whoops" just requires basic fiberglass repair. On yours...have you ever tried to locate a new stainless bumper?And yes, there is some steel behind the U300 fiberglass "bumper", but it wouldn't do much good in a frontal impact.

Re: Thoughts on a 1992 Silver Anniversary Reply #28 – September 10, 2018, 10:30:00 pm The posts here on the value are convincing me of the negative financial consequences of painting a coach.No one serms to want to pay for the paint on resale. If $35k is too much for new bags and tires and paint I will never paint ours.Or paint it then drive it for 15 years and get my moneys worth. Quote Selected 2 Likes
