New 2003 Avatar Class A owner

I just purchased this motorhome from a owner who put only 10,000 miles on it in 12 years. I have been searching forums in all the Class A RV forums for anyone who has a Avatar and have not found one person who is currently listing the Avatar as their motorhome. If there is anyone who has one, please contact me.

First 5th wheel was 97' Jayco Eagle, and would still have it, if the owner hadn't stored it for three years using a couple of bags of mothballs, that just would not go away, not how much we cleaned.

Look forward to talking with everyone.

I used mothballs outside to keep mice away. Glad I did that.

There were probably less than a couple hundred AVATAR's and FIRENZA's made so finding many owners will be hard.

Thanks for reply. Did not know that Jayco only produced a limited number of these coaches. Kept in climate controlled warehouse except for the past six months, when the owner was trying to sell it. Switching everything over from 13' Toyhauler in the next week and heading out for first trip. Only issue will be changing out the pre-digital TVs.

Thanks again for replying.

We just bought a 2003 Firenza; not sure what the commonalities are between the Avatar and Firenza, though.

Avatar is diesel pusher and the Firenza is a gasser, cabinetry and incindentals may have a connection, but that is about all.

Change all your belts and hoses and new coolant. New trans fluid.
