Subject: Re: BMC or WANDERLODGE Author: Bill [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 05/ 31/ 09, 3:42am In reply to: Bob Neary 's message, "BMC or WANDERLODGE" on 05/ 29/ 09, 3:43pm I believe the major difference was that BB tried to make a lower cost Motorhome, and used another chassis, I think it was a Sparton/Cummins. Also eliminate a few options. The BMC it still a very nice coach, Only a few years in production . [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: BMC or WANDERLODGE Author: Rich D. [Edit] Date Posted: 06/ 3/ 09, 11:12am Bill hit the nail on the head. In an effort to boost sluggish sales Blue Bird started the BMC (Blue Bird Motor Coach) line. They used a Spartan chassis which has a lighter weight capacity and was not purpose designed/built by Blue Bird. Blue Bird added a fine body and interior which, while nicer than most any other motorhome out there, there are differences with the Wanderlodge that was built from the ground up by Blue Bird. The reduced weight capacity made it essential to cut down on the size of things such as engine, generator, battery banks, tank capacities, frills, etc. Overall, I agree with the others; it is a fine coach.
