Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerThom- Ken in Oklahoma - anywhere to see pics of your Airflyte? Looking for one to buy!
Re: Coachmen Mirada class A motorhomeRickWe bought a Coachmen 29 DS a month ago and have been in it the entire month. A few minor problems but overall we are really pleased with our choice. Yes, it is on the entry level compared to the other coaches but the price is hard to beat. Our dealer has been terrific to work with and hope we can buy another high end model when I retire an go full time in about 10 years...
Re: Coachmen Mirada class A motorhomeLittleJoeWe bought a 2012 29DS last year and traded it 4 months later. Nice looking but very cheaply done. Steering is loose. Cheesy curtains, no day/night shades plastic inside plumbing fixtures squeak, seating is horrible. Thick vinyl on couch squeaks, cushions on dining seats and couch are very uncomfortable. We play musical chairs every night trying to find a comfortable seat. Cabinet door closers are bad. The small plastic disc supplied for the bathroom sink won't hold water. Three burner stove doesn't have a cover. Not much bang for the buck. A few good features but a cheaply built rig. Don't do it.
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerKenI have a Reto Shasta 17 for sale. It is the red one and is lightly used. We have had so much fun, just the wife and me, but we now want to take the grandkids with us. I would part with it for $11,000. I live in Oklahoma and can be reached at (918) 510-7342. DONT MISS THIS ONE
Re: Coachmen Clipper Sport Camping TrailerTandEWe have a 2011 Clipper 107 and really like it. We added the furnace, A/C, cassette potty, and power lift and this camper certainly fits our needs. We camp with two adults, two kids, and our english bulldog and there is plenty of room. We downsized from a travel trailer and I must say I really enjoy towing this much more plus it fits nicely in the garage.

Re: Coachmen Capri MicroDon GloadDamn Sheri, I hope you aren't the one teaching your 6 year old how to spell.
Re: Coachmen Capri Microjerry burrisneed owners manual for an o7
Re: Coachmen M-Series small travel trailerGeoffI wish that the floor plan designers of small trailers would not always try to squeeze a queen size bed into every design. Take the Coachman M-series model 4180 for instance and imagine the daytime space if the bed was a convertible setee instead. I personally would trade having to make the bed each day for more daytime space anyday.
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroAZJudeI have loved my 16 foot "Ms Capri". I have traveled all over the US with it. I pull it with my Kia Sorrento and although I don't get great gas mileage it has been a great combo. I travel alone and have plenty of room and the bed is very comfortable...bathroom shower is large enough to actually move around. I will be selling it this year sadly...health issues are limiting my travel but I'm grateful for the 3 great summers I have spent in it. My email is judereed@earthlink.net if you want more info.
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroFred RI have a 135RE 2007 with the larger bed (full size). We use 1 season, trailer still looks new. We are asking $6000 for it. I pulled it with a Toyota Prerunner.Contact fnjryan@tx.rr.com We are in Dallas area It's a great trailer.
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroJudy RWant to sell 2007 Van. $7000 or obo. Great shape judyruehl65 at gmail.com - 6/26/2011
Re: Coachmen Mirada class A motorhomeJim and BriWe have a 2011 Coachmen Mirada 29DS, the shortest model and with 2 slides. We've really enjoyed it so far. A delight to drive with no real problems and a floorplan that we really like.
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerCindy and LarryWe just bought our 2009 Shasta from a dealer nearby! They have had it since new! We were able to get it for 10,500. We love it! - 5/19/2011
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerRick and NancyWe bought our Shasta Airflyte 12 in Oct 2010. It was new and an amazing deal! We love it. It has exceeded our expectations.
Re: Coachmen Adrenaline Blast toy haulerJoe & SybilI also have a 2008 Coachmen Adrenaline Blast 21 foot Travel Trailer and my ramp door is bubbling and pitting. One dealer told me what it might be. It has been that way for about 2 years now. email me at j12shadowace@hotmail.com and we can discuss this problem.
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroEd2007 Micro Capri for sale.used 3 nights.... $7,500.00 contact me @ edretired at hotmail.com - 11/30/2010
Re: Coachmen Concord class C motorhomecindy TBig Foot Quadra levelers. We had them on a 30 ft Class A. The best.
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroChris CoolingI'm interested in talking to anyone who has a 135RE. Neat design and seems like lots of interior storage for this size trailer. Your thoughts? Quality of build? etc. *dvdchris* at y a h o o.com (remove asterisks)
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerDavid ErnestOh, it is the red version.
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerDavid ErnestWe pick up our new never been camped in 2009 Shasta Airflyte 12 tomorrow morning in Little Rock Arkansas. That is about four hours away. We can't wait.
Re: Coachmen Brookstone fifth wheelMerry CalneI've had 2 Coachmen RVs, one great, one good. I like Coachmen. They say it's a great product at a great price with great value and I agree
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailersummerjennyWe own a Shasta 2009. This camper is awesome. Everywhere we go people ask if we restored an old one. It's easy to hook up, all of the appliances are top notch, flat screen tv is perfect, water heater is great, and a/c and heat works excellent! I would only wish for a little more storage space. Other than that is is the coolest camper out there!
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerJim and PatWe bought the new Shasta in fall 2009. Used it in the 2010 camping season. Love It! We get lots of looks and give lots of tours.
Re: Coachmen Concord class C motorhomeLanDrewWe are trying to find leveling Jacks to fit the 2009 Concord model 300TS. Anyone have any experience with this?
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerSue and LarryBought 2009 Shasta 12 airflyte in 2010, believe it was last one on any dealer lot in U.S. Loving it!! This is the easiest trailer, just hook up & go anywhere.
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroSamualHi!!! Can anyone tell me where I can find a owners manual for a 2007 Capri Micro!!!!!?????
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerSamI bought a Honda generator, it's quiet, I can take this travel trailer anywhere. It is wonderful.
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroSheriWe bought a brand new 2007 that was never sold off the lot as the door was in the back.With the full warrentee!!! WE LOVE IT!!! It's just my husband and 6 year old have so much fun with it last year we took it out 6 times it was great!!!!
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroBetsyI'm looking for a Coachman Capri Micro model. Wish Coachman would continue to make these. They are just what I need. Love the small bathtub and can pull it with my van.
Re: Coachmen Prism class C motorhomePat CallahanI am looking for the 220 model with the slide where the dinner booth is.....2doggie2(at)comcast.net 8/13/2010
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroLois and StephenHi!! We bought our 2007 Capri yesterday!!! It had been used just three times and is in mint condition. ( pd. $8500.00 ) Thanks soooo much for all of the positive comments on it! It appears that we have made a good choice. 8/11/10
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailerpat we purchased a 2009 shasta great camper. the dealer is great. but there was no owners manual and on line half of the manual is gone .can anyone help me ?
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroD.R.Too bad this model or somthing comparable is no longer in Coachmen's new line up after 2008. At 13 feet and under 3000lbs, my villager could pull it, but their new line of ultra lights are too heavy. Defeats the purpose of being called an ultra light...I'll have to look for a different brand of "lite".
Re: Coachmen Prism class C motorhomeJRMellWe also purchased a 2009 Prism M230 at the end of 2009. We are very pleased with it and have made some modifications such as replacing the pull out sofa with a fold down version thats bigger and gives you some room to walk by the foot of the bed. We also replaced the other sofa with a couple of swivel chairs and a table in between. Some doors were removed to open up the back a bit. We had the same experience at the dealer referenced by HHg and were quite surprised to find the mattress missing from the bed out first night out. We are also towing a SMART car behind this baby and are loving it.
Re: Coachmen Shasta travel trailertonyjust bought 2009 shasta camper, not only are they a beautiful camper inside and out, they are very light weight, and rare, only about 114 were made before coachmen sold to forest river rv
Re: Coachmen Capri Microreal.escapes@yahoo.comI saw a used 2007 Coachmen RV Capri Micro 159 DB travel trailer on a re-sale lot and fell in love with it but can't afford the dealer's asking price. Is there an older model having the Rear corner shower, toilet, rear corner double bed, refrigerator/TV above, double kitchen sink, 2 burner range, front sofa w/removable table? Please contact me by e-mail. Thanks.
Re: Coachmen Spirit of America travel trailerTonyI am thinking about buying one for permanent residence. Would I be able to do that?
Re: Coachmen Capri MicroRosemaryWe have a 2009 179QB Capri Micro and we really love it. But with the grand kids wanting to go camping, we need something a little larger. We would be interested in selling it, but I almost hate to give it up. The bed is really comfortable and enough storage for us. We live in No. Calif and our email is rcosta@frontiernet.net It s been used only 5 times in the 1 3/4 that we have had it. Very clean.
Re: Coachmen Prism class C motorhomeHHg in AustinWe have the 2009 Prism M230 and LOVE IT !! Cabinets are great, full drawer sliders, great use of space. The Freighliner chassis w/the Mercedes diesel does get very close to the advertised MPG,..as we get between 16-17mpg. The only issue I would mention is the dealer we bought from,....they may be "BIG",.....but their service is terrible,...so use caution when selecting a dealer ! HHg
Re: Coachmen Prism class C motorhomeToriyou all are all complaining about the price but have you really looked at what they are selling for? mid 60's! for the used units I have looked at by the time you buy it, repair and repair it, much less pay for gas at 6 to 8 mpg you would have been better off with the compact units!
