Don’t undersell yourself with Andrew. He is not a tech and your perspective, I think it’s more insightful that his. I have been following him for a long time and it seems he’s moved on to more high end stuff. Your videos are spot on and are very informative. Keep up the great vids!!
Pride in proper ownership maintenance, upgrades, garage storage and use is just as important for Coach longevity as the original engineering and manufacturing quality control. Fantastic find. As always, awesome inspection and education. To properly maintain, fix & inspect, Don’t fret or stress; Contact AZ Expert, He’s absolutely the best.
Very nice looking coach. Best part of the video is how excited and happy you are, nice to see you get to touch a well cared for coach and not just a poorly designed mess you need to fix. Stay safe and healthy James.
Your enthusiasm is contagious! Thanks for a great tour of this beautiful Country Coach, James. Also, thanks for pointing out the more typical problems with a Country Coach so we can know what to look for ourselves.
Regarding the roof: James: "Cause, you know, what channel are you watching right now??" Me: 😂😂😂👍👍👍 What a coach!! I do like the CCs!! Care & maintenance are everything. This owner kept up with the times. The best part is your enthusiasm James!
@@AZExpert I know the feeling. Forgot to give you a shout out in the video of the beaver you inspected last week and didn't remember to til the camera was off. You are doing an amazing service for the RV industry and you provide just as much value as any RUclipsr out there!
That might have been your best RV walk through yet. In any event that's some good insight into some of the things to watch out for with a CC. Thanks for opening the rear engine compartment. Can't tell if it's just signs of water run off or the beginning stages of a crack at the driver's side slideout @2:32. And some beginning changes in the metal on the driver's side slideout bottom (appears to be worse on the topside).
James, I always appreciate your honesty. Never seen a CC review that covers possible known areas of concern. A big thank you for that. No doubt this coach is ready to go and offers someone an opportunity to own a great built unit with all the upgrades and updates needed for the next 10 -20 years of ownership. Great job as always and thanks again from this Wanderlodge owner.
I am subscribed to your channel, Brian's and Mr. Steele. As I have been doing my research before buying, I realize that when I come across the right RV for the wife and I, if I am anywhere close to you your location, I am paying you for the inspection. All of you guys do a great job and you bring a different perspective to the process. I love seeing individuals doing what they love. Shalom
Country Coaches are the best of the best for the average Joe. The magic that happened in central Oregon back in the 90's and 00's has never been repeated
Wonderful video! Thank you for your time spent on the roof and thank you for mentioning the common trouble spots in a Country Coach. Super informative and loved your appreciation for this particular unit. Nice work James!
Absolutely beautiful coach. I too get excited at the smallest of details with a vehicle that shows pride of ownership and even love. My wife just doesn't understand the excitement. Great walk through and your opinion is worth more than any other opinion since you are a trained and highly detailed technician. Thanks for sharing and take care!
Beautiful coach. Cc was truly the industry standard, imo. There will never be coach’s like this again. Tiffin was doing a good job following the lead….tell they sold out. I understand that pre emissions cats are loved and have a cult following, but there parts and service pricing is just stupid insane. I contest that all the rv manufacturers that had to bankruptcy out of 2008-09 was due to the economy and they had financed the hell out of a large inventory of pre emissions engines when the rv market dried up. The goal was to legally build coach’s with pre emissions engines until 2010. Having financed the inventory of power trains there was no money left to cover the lack of sales during a recession.
Love that coach, thanks for pointing things out for us to watch for. I like Andrew’s channel, but honestly I prefer for channel it shows us more items to look for and keep up with. 👍🦅🇺🇸😎. Love it when you get “tickled” about a motor home. Your a great salesman, being honest sells.
Thanks for the walkthrough. I’m having an inspector look at the exact same year and model later this morning. I was madly taking notes about the things to look for, but like this one, the owner took fantastic care of it.
Have been fortunate to be able to store any of my Coaches in my climate controlled garage. It makes a huge difference.... especially when it comes time to sell it. And yes ......it's all about Pride of ownership.
Awesome info & inspection James ! 👍 Can’t say how much I enjoyed your passion & expertise . My wife & I are looking for a Super C though , have you done any inspections on those & if so what recommendations would you have for a certain brand ? ( Show Hauler, Renegade , Etc etc ? Thx again . 👍
FINALLY!! When do you know it's time to replace the air bags on the suspension. This review is the 1st coach review of that era that even mentions that part of the suspension. Can you give us an idea on when to consider replacing, what do you look for or do a video on that aspect and an expected cost to replace? Great video, I follow you and Andrew and that was a terrific review on a country coach looking at aspects of concern. THANKS!!!!
Beautiful Coach!! Would it be out of line to ask where all the work on this Country Coach was done? So many of us current CC owners are looking for vendors that do work like this owner had done! Great video btw. :)
Awesome coach. Always glad to see you happy. LOL. Great channel. Roof was great. Did they change the suspension air filter on the last service? Keep up the great work.
I wish I could find something that would get me that excited in my search. Unfortunately, I keep getting disappointed every time I look at another one. I found a really nice Monaco Signature series, but all the maintenance, tires, airbags has been deferred and it will need 15-20K of work to make it perfect and the asking price is 15k over book value.
Thorough video. The items you point out as issues with Country Coach are really issues for any coach. Soft spots in walls and rot as you said are from leaks or a lack of annual maintenance. Same with slide out cracks and delam, always from a water leak above; window, belt rail, roof to sidewall seam which all coaches have right? What manufacturer do you like? I would agree with you on bay door separation, they could have been designed better yes. That Advantium oven is original and you can confirm this with the serial number which is also printed on an 8.5" x 11" decal inside the bathroom medicine cabinet door FYI. Last, this coach is a solid $35,000.00 overpriced. GLWS
Started following a couple of months ago. Not sure why you're not a "Country Coach fan" given you appreciate well built RV's?? I'm actually looking for a well cared for Country Coach to purchase and would love some insight to any concerns you have about them. Maybe you and Brian (Premier RV) should team up and do a video exclusively on Country Coach?? Thanks for a great video!
Jim, you pointed out the exterior panel below the bathroom window. Mine is doing exactly that, noticeable for the inside limited to the width of the bathroom window and about 20 " down from the bottom. Absolutely no sign of water intrusion. Checked roof, gutters, and window and all are tight. Any idea what causes this? By the way I am an Engineer and told I am sick, because I get all excited about thigs like the tight fit on the TV and other things you mentioned :-) Jack C. 2001 Country Coach Magna 40' Tag Any answer you might provide would be appreciated.
Hey James, I'm in Glendale getting ready to make my way back home to Georgia. And my generator has decided to act up. Any chance you can work me in to take a look? 99 Prevost Country Coach. Thanks
You just showed me plenty of stuff wrong for a rig with less than 100,000 miles ! It would have been impressive if the owner had not spent 30 or 40 grand fixing up what was initially a weakly built MH.
good review James.....i wanted to mention that "pride" is 66 times in the bible and its never something good...we as mankind kind should never want to be proud of anything......The Father said He was pleased with His son, not proud of him....We as a society have been conditioned by the elite to to use the word pride as being something good......the correct word is integrity, or pleased not pride........Be blessed, Willie
So in other words...Stay away from Country Coaches. There are 2 types of Country Coaches, 1 with many quality problems and 1 that will have many quality problems

Me: 😂😂😂👍👍👍
What a coach!! I do like the CCs!! Care & maintenance are everything. This owner kept up with the times.
The best part is your enthusiasm James!
A 2007 coach with 2018 upgrades. It’s Beautiful, Wonderful, Great.
Stunning! I wish I could afford $220,000. One of these days. Thanks for making the videos so fun. You cant fake joy my friend. God Bless
Glad you like them!
Such a beautiful coach
Beautiful coach! Nice to see a roof like that! I'm sure Country Coach didn't rely on foam and 1/4 luan for their roof structure!
Great video James 👏👏👏Thanks for the shout-out in the description!!
Any time! I meant to do it in video but my brain forgot as I was rushing to wrap up the video.

James, you rock!
And kudos to the owners of that coach for keeping it so impeccable!!
That would make me happy. Thank you for the tour James. Happy trails!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
You are by far one of the best walk through reviewers out there!!! Excellent channel!
Thanks for watching! :)
Someone really showed that coach some love. It looks great.
Once again great video. Great roof LOL. Really really nice coach. We learn so much from your videos they are awesome
It does my heart good to see you not disgusted by a build lol. Enjoy you video's immensely .
Wonderful video! Thank you for your time spent on the roof and thank you for mentioning the common trouble spots in a Country Coach. Super informative and loved your appreciation for this particular unit.
Nice work James!
You are my favorite rv site on RUclips. Always honest and very very knowledgeable.

Oh man this is such a nice unit! Owner has effectively spent the price of a new RV just upgrading this one!
It's very nice!

Rare and far and few between.Beautiful Coach.You did superb job standing in for Andrew.Thanks for the tour.
Great looking coach! A+++

Great review James! Andrew and Brian should take some delivery tips from you. Very informative presentation thank you
Outstanding vid and coach!

The amount of money put into upgrades into this is insane! What a value. I mean who replaces the wheels?

I've done several videos on Country Coach
@@AZExpert Now that I've took the time to search, I see that. Thanks.
Going to look at a discovery on Tuesday 2015.
40 g
Your videos are much more informative than Steel’s
We do completely different things, thanks for watching
James i have plenty of roofs to do we can get you going today. JK. Thiss is a nice coach
Hi James... you're right, the attention to detail is amazing... is this coach for sale?
yes it is. The contact information is in the description
Impressive indeed! I'll be happy to travel with the owner if the wife won't.....
WOW
The puck lights I would love to change on ours out if I mean if you could direct me to a site for them and ours are dimmable
Jim, you pointed out the exterior panel below the bathroom window.

That's a beautiful coach, well taken care of, but I think it's incredibly overpriced, big time.
Hey James, I'm in Glendale getting ready to make my way back home to Georgia. And my generator has decided to act up. Any chance you can work me in to take a look? 99 Prevost Country Coach. Thanks
Is that foam coming loose an easy repair? Seems like you could just take the door off and reglue it.
Looks like he was preparing for long term, sad it never worked out.
One day..
Who is selling this coach?
Did you ever hear what it sold for?
Not sure, I don'ts sell them
Is this Coach still available?
I don't think so.
Someone spent a lot of money on that coach then spent a lot of money on the upkeep and service
You just showed me plenty of stuff wrong for a rig with less than 100,000 miles ! It would have been impressive if the owner had not spent 30 or 40 grand fixing up what was initially a weakly built MH.
I thought it was nice, most of the money was put to good use for long term use and protecting the RV. Thanks
Kind of seems like you're being "punked" lol
How much $$ are we talking?
21:30
Disregard previous question... sorry. And between you and me, I'd much rather listen to your reviews than Andrew's... but don't tell him.
You might want to take a cold shower now!
good review James.....i wanted to mention that "pride" is 66 times in the bible and its never something good...we as mankind kind should never want to be proud of anything......The Father said He was pleased with His son, not proud of him....We as a society have been conditioned by the elite to to use the word pride as being something good......the correct word is integrity, or pleased not pride........Be blessed, Willie
So in other words...Stay away from Country Coaches. There are 2 types of Country Coaches, 1 with many quality problems and 1 that will have many quality problems
no, they're nice coaches just need to look for the more common issues.
