1999 Used Fleetwood AMERICAN EAGLE 40EVS Class A in Texas, TX. Dad bought this new in 1999, and we've updated it.
Brand new Michelins and airbags, two new oversized cold air conditioners, new awning covers above slides, new heated mirrors, new power inverter, chassis batteries, updated electrical system, replaced rear slide motor, lighted door handle and compartment hardware. Serviced backup generator, water heater, refrigerator.
The interior includes all new - furniture (both captains chairs, pull-out sofa with a 5-inch mattress (never been slept in), recliners (great quality construction by Amish craftsmen), dining chairs, queen pillowtop mattress (like sleeping on a cloud), headboard, matching backsplashes in galley and bath, floor coverings throughout, custom handmade cornice boards/lambrequins, custom Bali day/night shades, microwave, TVs, in dash stereo (AM/FM/CD/Bluetooth. Replaced various vents, lights and light covers. All plumbing has been checked for leaks. The LP central heat is checked out, has a working CO2 sniffer and works great.
It has original refrigerator and washer/dryer combo and both work great. They were checked out and serviced recently. We replaced some racks in the fridge. You may want to add an icemaker. The range is original, burns LP, works great. Furnace good. The LP system was checked out recently. The TVs are new flat screens, never used. There is also an external compartment to add a TV and possibly a stereo system for tailgate parties or camping patio entertainment. Cabinets are original oak throughout. We replaced latches, etc. where necessary. Lots of storage.
Miles are about 139,500. The unit sat idle for quite some time without running, so when I got it, the rings wouldn't seat and there was considerable oil blowby. You can't let a diesel engine sit. So now, the engine has new pistons and liners, main and rod bearings, rebuilt cylinder head, rings, seals, gaskets, lube and filters. The work was done by Industrial Power in Fort Worth, an authorized Cummins repair station. There is no other engine work needed or other pending problems. The Cummins engine in this rig is one of the big differences between motorhomes out there, and this one runs like a beast.
Working engine "jake" brake and awesome cruise control. Â Telescopic slanting steering wheel. Â Easy to drive on those long trips. Â
Needs help: front has baked-on 3M acrylic film; cover it with a new bra. Â It has a few blemishes, but it's still pretty. There is a small boogie in the rear fiberglass panel and bumper (see picture). Â Add a new patio awning if you want one. Â Get a DirecTV receiver with travel package or a portable dish, and your entertainment system is ready.
If you're a first-timer or used owner looking for a small upgrade, this is a very nice older unit with some custom features you won't find anywhere. Far from perfect, but ready to go. Put your personal touches on it and hit the road!
