Must have fixed that trailer wiring to be in such a humorous mood. Now, just where are all the rest of the 370s. Perhaps you and I have the only 2 left that are still on the road .

1994 36 Classic

Truly the next gen of MH for AS (at the time).

It has the shape of the Landyacht (The nose ) but has the rounded appeal of the Classic.

AS changed the shape and a major overhaul of the front end in 92- 93 (I believe). The last model I have seen is a 96' and there are even a few diesel units out there.

The units have all the bells and whistles like leather interior, Corian countertops, convection oven, Hydraulic lifts, cypher lock on entry door, tinted windows, oak cabinets, rear queen bed and many more.

I love it!

Smiley,

I've seen a few of these units personally, and more pictues on this Forum site. Do you have one? I'm a little confused because your picture gallery shows a trailer. Did you move to a MoHo, or do you have both? Also, what is the front made of? Is it aluminum or perhaps fiberglass? The interior pictures I've seen look very much like my 1989 370LE - almost identical. I suspect A/S did some mechanical changes to the drive trains? Or were they mostly C 30 Cheverolets with 454 gas, other than the few diesels?

Looks like Rutger Hauer now has a trailer. His web site shows a vintage AS, I have the photo of his 370, I will scan it in if I can't come up with the link. A 360 ( gas 454) just sold on Ebay for a giveaway price, it was owned by T Mobile, and then someone else who had it repo'd. The lucky buyer (if the mechanicals are all ok) got one that looked pretty good, and would be easily brought back to a higher level.

Changes

The front end is all aluminum.

The interior is similar with the exception of the dash and the Television.

The Classic MH that I have does not have all of those little in dash indicators lined up at the top.
My television is mounted forward of the dog house and recessed in the dash.
My Lift controls are on the passenger side of the dash.
My rear view camera display is dash mounted left of the steering wheel.

My dash is very deep to the windshield and covered with white leather.

As for pictures, I have not posted any of my new Coach. The pictures in my photo section is of the several trailers I have had and I believe there may even be a picture of my Landyacht MH.

Very pretty rig. Thanks for all the info. Sounds like A/S put some things where they are much more convenient to use. Having the TV up front is much more logical with the LR layout. Also, I've found trying to view my back-up camera by looking up above the windshield to be very difficult in some situations. Thanks for the info. and the pictures. One final (?) question - what type of transmission does your 36 have?

ALANSD,

Would love to see the picture of the 370 that was Hauer's. Thanks for working on that. Interesting that he has an A/S trailer. His web people wrote me that he had, and he may still have it, another brand of motor home. By the way, haven't heard from Julia Roberts web folks yet

Hey Chaplain,

The 370LEs are really getting organized ! We're up to 4 on the survey! We could start a whole sub-group. What do you think ?

Well, I wish I had a 435 but it is really a 345. This darn program won't let me edit a mistake. It says Illegal eror and shuts down.
