It's a 2007 Forest River Sunseeker, a class "C" just short of 30' long on a General Motors chassis.
We now have a dining table that's always set up AND a walk-around queen bed (that we can each get out of on our own side!) AND a sofa AND an everyday usable shower!
The 19' Pleasure-Way class "B" was working great, even with two of us, and had been for over a year, but the opportunity for the larger rig came along so we took it. Having a table that's always set up is great.

The title & other stock parts for the Pleasure-Way class "B" are in Georgia. We may convert the queen bed back to the U-shaped sofa, we'll see. So we're driving the two rigs to the beet harvest in North Dakota then back to Georgia, where we'll sell the Pleasure-Way after that.
The new RV needed a few things. A couple of tires & recharge the AC system were about it. I did have to figure out how to get the spare tire down and some of the switches, plus we needed to get a jack.
Now there are the things that need to be done to make it "right" for us. We're talking a coat rack, paper towel holder, spice rack, a place for the kitchen knives, a fold out counter extension, replace the 12v incandescent interior bulbs with LED and new radio. Stuff like that.
There are still more things for later like vent fans, covers for the vents and solar.
Solar! There is a lot of room for solar now ... Solar is magic and I miss it!
Moving from one rig to another while you're on the road is a project but we're managing...
Did I mention that having a full-time table again is great?
I have to admit that this was a project we'd talked about before, finding & buying a new (to us) RV. It was a big step. Doing it on the road is an added hurdle, but not impossible.
If anyone is looking for a Pleasure-Way, come November we'll have the title in hand :-)
