Its new owners should not have to do much of anything to it, except to personalize it with extra enhancements. If you need a small classic RV that is all ready to go, then this might be the best one for you, even if you are not that close by. . Now ‘Read More’ below to see the entire description of the many features of this unique Toyota RV; there is also a link to paste for 110 photos. If after reading it you are truly a serious buyer, please CALL US rather than type a reply: 626-798-4566 (no texts). - - - Restoring Toyota RVs has been our hobby for 25 years. My assistants and I have been carefully refurbishing this Toyota Itasca Spirit for multiple months to be optimally usable for the next owners. We are experienced in what we do and take pride in our work. There is a lot of satisfaction in putting one back on the road as it was meant to be with everything working again as perfectly as we can make it. . "Way above average" aptly describes this coach. The reasons will become obvious when you read its many features and upgrades. Most Toyota RVs that come up for sale need a fair amount of time and attention, and probably a good amount of money to make them comfortable and trouble-free again. Here now instead, is one that is ready to take camping right away. What you will read about is at least 100 different tasks and items that the new owner WON’T have to deal with because they have been fixed or improved or added already. First of all, this model is a Winnebago Itasca Spirit, which it is considered to be the best built of any brand of Toyota RV overall, but nicely-restored ones like this are rather hard to find. Secondly, it has a V-6 engine (not a 4 cylinder) so you have more adequate power for climbing hills, and you have the ability to tow a moderate load. Interstate speeds of 65 mph are easy to maintain. The ride in the cab is much quieter and the seats more comfortable than earlier models. Toyota engines are known for their longevity and great gas mileage especially compared to any other RVs of the same size and price. The chassis with automatic transmission can get up to 16 miles per gallon. Thirdly, this engine/chassis has quite low miles on it -- only 71,000. We personally know of several well-maintained Toyota Winnebago RVs like this with over 200,000 miles that are still on the road and being enjoyed as much as ever. And just so you know, this 1993 model is the last chassis year that any motorhomes were built on a Toyota frame = as new as you can get. In the last few weeks, it has had the engine and chassis inspected by a mechanic to make sure it is as roadworthy as possible. He could find no immediate issues. There is new hood insulation added for a cooler and more quiet ride. With all of the engine/chassis maintenance items taken care of, you can have confidence that this RV will perform better than most. Specifically, it is MUCH more apt to be free of all the unexpected surprises that often come with used RVs that are for sale because sellers just want them off their property for whatever reason. The tires are Yokohama Y-356 brand (in the proper load range D) with only about 2000 miles on them. This vehicle has the full-floating one-ton rear axle and six-lug wheels throughout. It has just had brand new leaf springs installed on the rear to provide a more comfortable ride for passengers. The exterior of the RV is flat-sided fiberglass — more contemporary looking. It has now been professionally polished and detailed. Even more significant is that it now has fresh, sparkling exterior stripes that make it look almost like new. Additionally the outside mirrors and other previously-shabby portions have been refurbished and painted to look presentable again. If you didn't know, finding an exterior as nice-looking as this on a Toyota RV is a hard thing to come by. You can be proud to drive this classy-looking RV. There is an 11’ roll-out patio awning installed on the side to provide shade while camping. On the rear is a newly-installed carrying rack with a roomy cargo box (including an interior tool tray). The cargo box can be removed to roll your cargo to a different location if desired.
