I just listed my 2006 fully loaded Grandby on craigslist. http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/rvs/3382872595.html Lance 206-849-0079

The condition looks kinda rough. From peeking through the windows it appears to have couch, ice box, propane stove, furnace. Looked dry inside. I am almost tempted to get this for myself, it would be a cool project.

Here is a 1979 FWC Blazer camper on a 1975 chevy blazer 4x4. This is not my vehical, It for sale on the side of the road near my home. Enumclaw Washington. I figure that there is someone that would just love to have this rig for a project.. The price is $1000 obo. Here are the pictures I took...

I agree with leaving the roof racks out. Unless you really need then, its just another place to leak. Granted I am in a very wet area, and you are in a dryer area, but these are for traveling. I had Yakima racks on my 2001 Hawk, and aluminum racks on my 2006 Grandby, and they both leaked. Just...

Just did a few small trips. 99 ford 7.3 diesel 2wd stick shift. No camper 21 mpg. With grandby fully loaded on truck and pulling mountain pass got 18 mpg. I'm very happy with he setup and mileage. Think it might do a little better if i spent less % of miles in the mountains .

Great MPG info. I just picked up a 99 ford 2dw 7.3 diesel with a 6 speed manual. I figure that this will be a great mpg combo. Will be mounting the grandby next week a doing a small trip. Will posts mileage. Hope to get high teens :) Lance

Great idea with the single handle and the soap dispenser. Now you got me thinking of adding a soap dispenser. Lance

pull out sprayer

Just installed a much needed new faucet in my 2006 Grandby. The original faucet does not extend far enough into the sink, and water easily spills onto the counter. The new faucet is a Aqua Source #0308415 This new faucet works much better and even has a pull out sprayer. You do have to drill a...

How is your mileage with your FWC camper ? Im running a 1988 chevy 2500 with a 350 TBI and getting 10 mpg. I fugure this is a little low. Thinking of getting a dodge diesel. I think my old ford 7.3 diesel was getting about 17. What #'s are you guys seeing over the road ? Thanks Lance

Stan, is it a direct replacment? Drop it in and go? Is this a direct replacement for the Suburban dd-17dsi ?? Lance

Thank you. That is exactly the info I needed.

For the type of traveling I do, the the porta potti is the perfect solution for late nite or emergencys. I dont think many would appreciate a person with thier pants down squating on a pad. Thats for the outback and desert camping. I want to know what make and model fits under the seat of a...

I Just got a 2006 Grandby with room for a porta potti. What make and model fits ? I looked at the dimensions of the Thetford 135 and it looks like it would be a tight fit. what fits and what hits ? Thanks Lance

My new 2006 Grandby. Just picked it up last weekend. I got it from the original owner. He said he only used it 3 times. Showroom condition :) Not a nick or scuff anywhere Lance

Thanks for the update. The guy finnally sent me and email. Likely the same one you got. He made it sound like he had lots of interested partys and was trying to get a bidding war going. This is the first time I had heard of an "open house" for a camper. Not going to drive 15 hours without first...

ITGUY, Thanks for heads up on the 2000 grandby. The guy also had this camper for sale a few months ago. In my opionion, its in pretty rough shape. I have looked at it in person. Roof leak and damaged paneling back right side, left rear camper jack was bottomed out, and torn up. Frame appears...

2004 Eagle $8900 on Seattle craigslist. http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/rvs/1814718481.html

I sent an email to the guy in San Fran with the 2003 Grandby an hour after he posted. Still havent heard back from him. I have sent two emails with my phone #. I was ready to drive down this weekend with cash, but something must be up with this seller. Maybe he thinks a buyer from Seattle is...

Thanks to those who post new alerts. Im currently shopping ( ready to buy ) and really appreaciate it. WTB newer Grandby Lance

Thanks Stan. Will do. Lance

Im currently shopping for a Grandby and would like to have my tie downs installed and ready to go when I find one. Does anyone have measurements on where to locate them in the bed ? Truck is a 1988 chevy long bed. I had a great Hawk a few years ago, and look forward to getting another FWC...

Galen Thanks. I will send you additional pictures. Lance

thanks I may spend the time peeling off all the goop the previous owner applied, if I get the time. Thanks for the tips. I think your right that it only leaks if it sits.
