Purchased our 1st coach with intent to try-out RV lifestyle and keep the coach 5-years. Turns out we bought our last coach first! Our Dynasty is now 14-years old and cannot find a reason to part with it. Coach seems to have gotten even better with age-116,000 miles on odometer. People often ask what year it is and are amazed when told 2008–they comment it looks new. The major factor contributing to the Dynasty longevity is the Roadmaster chassis. The coach rides quiet and comfortably on all road conditions with its 10-air bags and 10- shock absorbers. Can’t find anything like it at any price under 1.5 million dollars!

My father law joined us with is 38’ 2016 Allegro bus, we had equal their power. Anyone considering purchase of one of these Monaco rigs should be aware of the fact that Monaco went bankrupt in 2009 so documentation is hard to come by you can still order parts online.

We traveled across many months of highway in our Monaco, we have wintered in the south several years staying for several months very comfortably. The solid quality in workmanship in this rig is hard to beat. The solid wood oak trim is beautiful, none of that plastic fake trim. It has 4 slides that when open give so much floor space, it was comfortable to entertain guests and on occasion include extra family members to join us on vacations. There is more than enough room comfortably move through the coach when all sides are pulled in for highway travel. The central vac system makes cleaning so easy and convenient, having washer and dryer on board was essential at times on the road when there were no laundrymats in remote locations. But most important, riding the roads, weather it was highways, back country roads, or city expressways, this motorhome handles with easy, smooth ride, quiet. Even tight spots were easier to navigate than our other class B+ motorhome. The water system is outstanding, always enough hot water, great filtration system to make our water system safe. Even in cold weather, this aqua hot heating system kept us warm and the floors comfortable. The storage space in this motorhome is plentiful, we had enough room to store several seasons of clothing to take with us, every essential living supplies that we would need and not have to stop very often to replenish. There is so much storage space that we never even used all of the cupboards or underneath bins. The diesel engine has fabulous power, going through mountains, major highways, or anything we faced, we never worried that we couldn't handle the grade even with a tow vehicle. The large fuel tanks allowed for longer road travel times without the need to stop for refueling. The airbag leveling system made it a breeze to set up camp even in the most uneven campsite locations. Also the airbag system provides the smoothest ride going down the highway, it feels almost as if you are sitting in your easy chair in your living room. The video camera system allows the driver to keep a close eye on the traffic on both sides of the motorhome as well in the rear that allows safe lane changes as well as ease in parking and backing up. All of the windows provides great lighting as well as optimal views of the country as you travel the country and when you are stationary, you have plenty of light, fresh air windows and ceiling vent fans to keep comfortable and enjoy the whole RV experience. The master bedroom with the queen size bed has bedside windows to provide fresh air as well as to be able to safely keep an eye on what is going on outside around your rig along with the bedside security camera monitor that you can view all sides of the motorhome without having to go outside to check on anything questionable when you are in an unfamiliar location. The power window shade provide protection for your vision from the sun when it gets to a level that is in your eyes to provide better driving ability. The motorized entry steps provide easy entry and exit along with the lighted handrails both inside the motorhome and one light handrail on the outside. Makes it easy to find your grab bars in the dark for safety. So, as much as we absolutely love our motorhome, We hate to give her up, we are at a time for a new phase in life which predicts less travel time for us. It is time to let another family enjoy this beautiful rig and all of the experiences that come with comfortable travel to see this beautiful country of ours. She has many, many more miles to go and lots of power. This chassis and engine will outlast and outrun and get you to every destination of your dreams that you can go by highway or back roads.

Lovin’ our Dynasty. More like a home that an RV. Roadmaster chassis, Cummins 425 ISL engine, and 10 airbags makes this coach a dream to drive. ‘Gotta watch your speed because it’s so smooth. The floor plan is very spacious and I love the stone floors through-out the unit except for the bedroom. The bath and a half makes it easy to accommodate guests without sacrificing privacy. Conveniences like central vac and Aqua Hot completes this coach.

I absolutely love this coach especially with the kitchen in the front because of the ease of going in and out when entertaining outside. I also thought I wanted the booths but fell in love with the table and chairs because of the amount of room it affords when the table is moved in. I love the king size bed but had my husband build a shelf for my side as there isn't one on both sides when you have the king size bed. If I could redesign anything it would be the way the sinks are located under the cabinets....kinda tight! But all the coaches have this issue as far as I can tell. The coach drives like a dream and the self leveling is very nice. Probably my favorite thing in this coach is the aqua hot instant hot water system.
