Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / RVs / June 2006Retrofitted Slide on RV Today
Anyone see the recent RV Today where they remodeled (really rebuilt) an older Winnebago? Nice job--wonder if they REALLY did it in 72 hours-- that paint job alone looked like it would have taken that. Now whether it actually RAN is another story :-) Anyway, that slide is exactly what my 96 Allegro needs. Anybody heard of anyone actually doing that kind of job or anyone who's had it done? Opinions on Cost--Quality--Problems?  SignatureJud Dallas TX USA >Anyone see the recent RV Today where they remodeled (really rebuilt) an >older Winnebago?

Jud, I have seen vendors at FMCA conventions, etc. that offer slide conversions. Seems they were running something like $17K but not sure. Go to Charlotte in August and check it out for your self. There won't be a convention in TX until TX changes their laws to allow out of state vendors to sell in their state....

Usually there selling outhouses that eat their own crap.

Friends of mine had a slide added to their 93 Pace Arrow by a company in southern Arizona, possibly in Yuma. It held the sofa and dinette. They were very happy with the work and traveled across the US and back with it.

Probably not a problem with most of the diesel pushers or big block gas engines though. Ron > Anyone see the recent RV Today where they remodeled (really rebuilt) an > older Winnebago?

Had a friend that had one installed in his Bounder. It was a nice job and I believe it cost him around $15,000 which included some other interior updating. As I recall it was a company in Gilbert, Arizona. I don't have one available now but I believe they have had ads in the FMCA magazine.

If so, yes it was, along with a bunch of other work Signature-------------------------------------------------------- Personal e-mail is the n7bsn but at amsat.org This posting address is a spam-trap and seldom read RV and Camping FAQ can be found at http://www.ralphandellen.us/rv The "paint" job was a wrap, not paint. The slide was made onsite / custom built. They never touched the engine only added a steering stabilizer.
