MY HOME ~ The LILYPAD
The Lily Pad is a 26' 1999 Class C Fleetwood Tioga
motorhome, Ford E-450 chassis, Triton V-10 engine with 53k miles,
purchased in August 2007.
I love the floor plan with the entertainment center over
the cockpit. There is a pull-out bunk drawer just underneath that and I
have converted it to a storage drawer. The double bed is a walk-around
and I have two hanging closets.
She came with a few extras and add-ons:
- Banks exhaust system
- Backup monitor
- HWH hydraulic levelers
|
- Fantastic Fan
- New Pergo® flooring
- New carpet in cockpit and bedroom
|
Since then I have added/upgraded:
- New leaf springs
- Bilstein shocks
- Rear air bags
- KWH stationary auto satellite dish
- Full solar system
- New tires
|
- Rear brakes
- New toilet
- New microwave
- Wireless doorbell
- Propane Extend-a-stay valve
- Catalytic heater & inside connections

I sold my motorcycle and little trailer and now pull a 2000 4WD Suzuki Grand Vitara, purchased
used in March 2008. The "toad" (or towed) is now appropriately named
Polliwog.
I use a
Roadmaster Sterling All-Terrain tow bar which has been wondergul and use a
Brake Buddy Vantage
for
brake assistance.
