I own a 1997 Rialta, i bought it back in 2020 with only 80,500 miles, for $3,000 here in Yuma AZ. The first thing i did was put a transmission oil cooling system and changed the transmission oil. The main problem with the Rialtas is that their transmission breaks down quite often, because of the excessive heat and wear people put because of over loading and driving them with a heavy foot on the gas. Mine came with the corner full size bed, and a third seat, i took the third seat out and other things, like the a/c and installed a 12 volt mini split, a tankless electric water heater, the small fridge, and replaced it with a 12 volt fridge and freezer combo, took out the old wineguard tv antenna and replaced it with a Tesla starlink for mobile internet, the old generac electric generator i replaced it with a new portable generac electric 3,000 watt generator. Put three 200 watt solar panels and two 300 ah lithium lifepo4 batteries. I also replaced the carpet floor with wood floor.

Thanks! It keeps getting better and better. We just did a 2500 mile trip without a hitch.

I am glad to see that you made provided example of tossing on a full bad. Wife is questioning my current search for T4 Rialta. Also like the view of the two seats removed.

I love the bathroom situation, so clever and gives so much more space. I wanted to do van but I always thought that van would be to tiny to have a decent sized bathroom, so I was looking a class c rvs but they are so expensive.

[@mothershipadventure5004]

My friends made a bathroom door with cupboards that close into the bathroom/shower space in their Ford Transit

The Rialta is a class C! Winnebago coach built on a Eurovan chassis.

Paid $25,000 for my 1998 RC twin (beds) a year ago. You can find them less $$ and some more $$.

I have a 98RC twin. Was looking for an instructional video on the awning. Mine has a carefree of Colorado Freedom II awning. I’m not sure how to put out/up the awning. 🤷‍♀️

Did it make a difference in your overall gas mileage?

[@Heather11268]

what kind of gas mileage do you get?

[@mothershipadventure5004]

The sticker says 16 to 24 mpg in reality 18.

[@yamatodamashii1179]

Is there anyway story behind the name?

[@mothershipadventure5004]

A friend began calling it a mothership and the name stuck.
