How do you like it. Any problems, does it have enough torque? Does anybody know anything about Rexall? They seem to have some new product. Great floor plan. A bit pricey. They are running ads and I have looked on their web site. Not a lot of info. Would appreciate any imformation anyone has. What kind of mileage do you get. Thanks

This is a coach that I have a BIG interest in. But no east coast dealers at all. There was a gentleman that looked at it too but ended up with a HR UFO Vacationer...all because this company has no dealer network here and will sell direct (146K I hear--which is too high in this market) but not take trades.....If you know of a dealer that is selling these on the east coast...please let me know. Note that I checked the lists for the Hershey vendors and they are not even there.

When I spoke with Rexhall, they were inflexible in discounting off their retail price sheets listed on the web. Needless to say, it was a short conversation!

Thanks, I wondered what the big ad was for. 18% off is no big deal. I emailed then and they won't respond. Guess I'll just keep looking at the Adventurer T & R. Sure like the Rexall photos, but oh well. Thanks again.

We have one and so far the engine and chassis seem to be very good..however we haven't made any long trips yet so we don't know what the mpg is over the long haul...short haul we got around 9. The ride and the low noise level is great. We love the HR house by the way. Colton RV in New York has two HR38 PLTs on their lot. Really nice coaches.

We don't have one, but if I was in the market for a new class A, it would be a "UFO" model! Bagman.

I just bought a Rexhall 37' UFO gas pusher. At first they were'nt too responsive to my queries, but then I connected with another person (not in sales) and she was very helpful with my questions.

Flew from Missouri, bought it and drove it back. I took my wife and daughter and we made a mini vacation out of the return trip. No significant problems, but we had some minor mechanical items we are sorting out now.

I got between 7 -9 MPG on the return trip depending on how fast I drove. This is my first RV so I can't compare it to anything else, but I feel the acceleration is pretty good considering its weight and i was able to keep up with most traffic, even up hills.

So far I'm happy with the Rexhall. If I get the time I may give a first impressions review. I have'nt seen much other info on this model here.

Rich644,
I spoke with a sales manager at Rexhall. I was very interested in their coaches, but the logistics of being here on the East Coast and buying on the west was a bit too much. That led me to search and research the HR 38plt. I spoke with two other owners. They both love the coach so that helped me a lot with our decision to buy the Holiday Rambler and the dealer is just 4 hours away from us.

Why aren't gas pushers more popular? I'd love the simplicity of a gas rig with the conveniences of a pusher (generator up front, floor plan with front entrance door, etc.)

I think buyers and manufacturers (especially those that make their own chassis like Tiffin, Monaco and soon Fleetwood) are just not responsive enough to anything new..although at some point all things were new like slideouts, auto leveling etc. In the past I have been reluctant to buy any model of car the first year out, and waited for someone else to buy it and work out the kinks, but I knew that this is the best time for us to get a new coach so I got over my fear and now have a coach that my wife and I like very much.
