Only way to show an old Foretravel was to turn every light on in it
You are right about that.  All of the tours and other videos we have ever done in our coach we had to have every single LED on inside to light it and even then we sometimes used another light to supplement.  For this tour I don't think I had any lights on at all.

I like lighter colors too. Slide in and no lights on.

Just curious as to how the paint is holding up, did you sand everything down to bare wood? Your coach looks fantastic!

Jim,
Yours is one of the very few U320's or U295's that I have seen with lighter toned wood. Is that maple in your coach? Looks really nice. Foretravel seems to have rarely used maple in their coaches...

Yes maple, Foretravel made 7 Designer Series over the years, and 5 came with maple, but think you could pre order maple if you had a new coach built at the factory.

We sanded the wood down pretty significantly, primed with oil base primer. sanded again, primed again and sanded again before painting. Before we put it into storage the paint was doing just fine.  There were a couple of places where we had let the cabinets shut before the paint had cured and it stuck and came off when we opened the door, but once it had a good week to cure we haven't had any other problems with it.

God bless you and your family. Love your family and the commitment you have to family and the Lord.
It's a testimonial to Foretravel that you can customize and use your coach for your family and your work.
