FINDING ONE

Findable — a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Gulf Stream is a volume manufacturer. Estimated from build volume and production span — not a count of live listings.

THE READ

The short bunkhouse — rear bunks in a 25 ft coach, which is unusual and the reason to hunt one down used. Small 24 gal waste tanks are the trade-off.
