  1. Its a good question and am happy to answer. The 2023 LEII we looked had a composting toilet and although those that have them swear by them, we are experienced and comfortable with managing regular black tank/toilet setups. The '23 LEII also had the top tier solar/Lithium battery/inverter package. As you know, that is a significant additional cost and as expected the sellers asking price reflected that. We aren't off grid campers and have owned several campers that didn't have solar capability so we just couldn't justify the cost for the benefit. None of the accessories that the owners had were included in the sale. If I recall, they were moving to a 5th wheel and were keeping all of their accessories. Lastly, and hardest to quantify is the fact that it seemed to me that the '23 LEII wasn't meticulously maintained. For a unit that was +/- 1x years old, it showed some wear. I suspect it may have been stored outside. In the end, we ended up with a meticulously maintained base model unit that came with all of the accessories. The previous owner had Oliver Service perform to the Truma Aventa Eco A/C conversion w/ CP control and add the aluminum storage basket. He also did a GREAT job designing and installing shelves in the closet, an upgrade that greatly maximizes that space. Hope this helps. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask. Craig
  2. Greetings, My wife and I are the new owners of hull #962 (LEII), we bought it from Coach and JoJo last fall. We are coming to the Oliver family after being long time truck campers. Having a TC gave us the flexibility to also tow a trailer for toys and the like. Last summer we decided to change direction and sold the trailer, toys, TC, and pick-up. All summer long I watched the classifieds and waited. Back in Oct we drove to Missouri to look at a 2023 LEII but passed on it. Not long after Coach and JoJo posted their '22 LEII for sale. They had recently completed the Truma A/C conversion and as many of you know, Coach knows how to trick out a closet. So, we couldn't pass it up. This forum is amazing, both in terms of educational information and give and take between members. I enjoy going down some of the rabbit holes you all have created 😉 We look FWD to many years of Oliver ownership and the memories that come with it. Cheers! Craig and MaryLou
  3. Shoot, it would be closer to go to the factory 😉 Going to a rally is a great idea though, thx.
  4. Exactly. It's fine with me, it good business. I'm confident that a lead will turn up before long. Word of mouth will spread. Thanks again Craig
  5. Hey Steph, That's good to know about your wife's approval because mine is pretty convinced...😉 Best to look inside one and let it speak for itself. Thanks!
  6. Thanks much, I'll reach out to their sales team again. They directed me here as we are in the used market. Your right Mike, doing a call-out is a good idea. Any LE II owners with a twin bed floor plan passing through the area greater KC area in the near future? My wife and I would love to meet-up for a walk through. We didn't grow up here but this is where we retired and really like the area and the small town feel of Leavenworth. Thanks again, Craig
  7. That's awful generous of you Bill, much appreciated for the offer. With any luck we will pull the trigger before then. But, you never know... St. Joe is just up the road from us, will keep you in mind if things move slower than planned. Cheers!
  8. Thanks again. Before we go all in on a buying one, we (especially my wife) would simply like to see inside one. She's still a bit concerned about counter and fridge/freezer space. Your correct, we could drive to the manufacturer, go to a rally, or go to look at used ones that are listed but we thought we would start local if possible first. Thanks again! Cheers
  9. Cool thanks for the info. Do you know of any Ollie owners in the KC area?
  10. Thanks for your feedback. Do you know any Ollie owners in the KC area?
  11. Greeting, My wife and I are in the market for a used Oliver LE II and would like to look at one before we pursue one. Are there any owners in the greater KC area that would be willing to show us one? Currently we own an Arctic Fox 990 TC but since we no longer need to also tow a trailer, we have decided to move from a TC to an Oliver LE II. I contacted Oliver and the only way to take advantage of their "See an owner's Oliver travel trailer near you" program is if you place an order for a new unit and provide a down payment. We are not in the market for a new unit. I see your a very tight knit group and I'm hoping to leverage your owner network to come up with a lead. Any help from you all is welcomed. Thanks, Craig Leavenworth, KS
