Thoughts on the Pleasure Way Plateau XLTS

The delivery.  Purchased it from La Mesa RV in Phoenix.  Took an out of state delivery - why pay the taxes!  Montana has no sales tax.   So here we are driving to Gallup, NM.

2005 TS , the 2020 FL and the 2023 Ascent  photo taken on my ranch.

I have owned several RV's since 2005 when I bought my first Pleasure Way Plateau TS.  Although the van based rig served me well over the years; buying the last in May of 2022, found moving up to the XLTS  a great improvment in comfort.   Although been winterized since picking it up in October of last year - live in Montana, and thus have not used the shower.  I find the liveability to be very comfortable.  I do travel by myself with the company of my three cats.  We  "all" love it.  Storage, both interior and the outside bays  offer plenty of room for all your items..
In my first real trip recently completed the economy was outstanding for a rig of this  weight and size; averging  19.62 gallons over the 5,980 miles.  

​

Added a Honda CT125 "toad"  to make living easier.  Now can run to the market for milk or adventures.  As you can see it is on a hitch carrier and really does not add much length, still pretty much drive and park where I wish.

Next trip is to Morro Bay the first of March - if I can get out of the ranch for now we have quite a bit of snow with more on the way.  I have to drive seven miles on dirt to get out, the first two are a bit worrisome  given this is not a four wheel drive!.    

Hope to bring you more reports and adventure of being in Morro Bay  and riding Highway 1

​I was so very blessed to have returned home last Friday; for as you can see in the photo below (taken 1/12) we received about seven inches of snow and more to come  Temps today are a high of -11  low tonight -33.   The  RV is snug in the heated garage and I do hope I will be able to get out to Morro Bay first of March!  

See You Down The Road
