This beauty has been well-loved and cared for in the three years she has been with me. She is road-worthy and also big enough for full-time living. I lived in her full-time for two years, and for the last year she has been sitting on a pad, plugged in with space heaters or out on the road on adventures. We are island-based, have done trips around here and also took her across BC and into Alberta for a month-long road trip/tour in September 2024.
Engine has been regularly serviced and updated with new parts when required. House is in original condition, solid wood cabinets, leather pull-out couch, wood/laminate floors. Walk-around queen bed in bedroom, shower/toilet/sink/closet in center, and kitchen/living area up front (the three sections can be divided by wooden doors which slide out).
I am sad to let her go! But know we are not using her to the full-extent and now that I am not living in it is time for her to maybe become someone else’s home, or adventure. These are well-built units and the Sahara is a very sought-after model for many reasons, including their large tanks and the paired ability to be off-grid for long periods. No mould or serious issues – she is an old girl but in good condition.
I have owned this unit for three years and have spent $14K (at least) on new parts, maintenance and services. More specifics listed below, including any purchases/maintenance/updates I added during ownership. Text or call for more information, showings will be arranged for serious inquiries only.

COMES WITH:

ISSUES:
- Onan propane generator not-serviceable *I have hunted for many techs to fix this but haven’t found anyone who will work on propane generators, everyone has told me to “purchase a generator and attach it externally” if I really want one… I didn’t need one because I had access to full hook-ups.
- Back arm of awning doesn’t extend smoothly, sticks and needs part replaced *I have tried to source this part over the years with no luck. Awning is usable but back arm can be annoying to extend/retract
- General wear/tear on wallpaper, plastic panelling for engine gauges has a crack
- Water damage around skylight in bathroom. Apparently, it was from years ago when the skylight broke, and is on ceiling only. No change during time of ownership.
- Fridge works off of power/electric but have not been able to run it successfully off the propane. Have had techs look at this too.
