What I like is no damn slides to tear up and there’s still plenty of room.

Bingo. These older gassers are good ways to get going in the RV world if you are a good mechanic. That Vortec engine is a good motor, if it hasn't been sitting forever.

How neat! Love this. RVing has become our favorite. ♥️ We’ve already made so many memories and are contemplating full timing someday!

[@RVshopandchef-Fun]

Us too!

Looking at a 2004 right now. Love them.

Just about everything can be fixed or upgraded. Just be sure you don't pay too much. The repairs will quickly put you upside down. I'd keep it near-free if it has as much work as ours did.

Correction, I was referring to the Georgie Boy. The Safari Trek is built better. There is room to put some money in her at the start. I think that exterior is all aircraft aluminum.

Thanks for making this video, we have a 2002 Safari Trek 2830, which is the same basic layout as the 2430 in this video, just 3 ft longer, with a larger bathroom with neo-angle corner shower, and larger kitchen with longer counter top with one more bank of drawers between the sink and the refrigerator.

HI Ike, send us some MP4 footage and we will get your video up on the channel- use your phone, a go pro, you name it, and we'll get you, and your Trek on the channel!

Awesome looking Safari Trek. It's a shame they didn't sell well. Why people like 35-40' motorhomes is beyond me. Not everyone needs or wants a 40' Class A. I know I wouldn't! For me, 25ft would be plenty big. If I can get it with a V8 Turbo Diesel, so much the better.

[@RVshopandchef-Fun]

Agree! loved the layout! super smart and by the way- the magic bed on Schwintek track has showed up in some super cool modern rigs!

What’s the mpg of Slopey?

8 to 12 mpg

Good name for her! probably around 9. Once we got her going we sold her, and did not track the metrics.

Intro way too long music blows

[@RVshopandchef-Fun]

Understood. We will record a new short stinger. Thanks for the guidance.
