Pot of Gold Lands At Tom Johnson Camping Center

Tom Johnson Camping Center recently decided to expand our Class C motorhome line-up adding Coachmen brand motorhomes to our already great line-up which includes Fleetwood, Four Winds and Winnebago brands.  Our Concord store received their first model to sell the other day, a Leprechaun 320BH and it showed up just in time to take to an outdoor event at a Kannapolis Intimidators baseball game.  A Class C was the very first RV my wife and I ever owned so I was interested to see how this would be and boy was I amazed!

The first thing you notice is the striking full body paint on this version but when you get closer to it, you start to see the beauty is more than skin deep.  Starting from the front you notice the fiberglass front cap then your eyes are immediately drown to the front sides where you see side cameras.  Yes, side cameras on a Class C and they are integrated with the back-up monitor so you can see your sides and out back on the in-dash screen.   The next exciting feature is the outdoor entertainment and it is no ordinary am/fm player, there is also a TV and some serious outside speakers, all of which you can enjoy under the power awning.  Moving out to the back you also discover large storage areas and LED taillights. 

Now when you first walk in the Leprechaun you are immediately stuck by how luxurious it looks with sleek countertops, well laid out kitchen, slide-out drawers,  two toned driver and passenger seats and a wood grain look dash.  Functionally you have a large bed in the cab area, easy slide down conversion dinette and a large couch across the way which slides out with the kitchen.  Moving back there are twin bunks on the slideout that also houses an immense cabinet layout for the master bedroom.  Across from the twin bunks is a spacious bathroom with cabinets.  Out back in the master area is a large walk around queen bed, the aforementioned amazing cabinet storage, a flat panel tv and large window.

The real test was how would it drive and once again I was amazed.  After 8 miles driving on road construction in which 1/3 of my lane was a different height I could not believe how well this motorhome handle the inconsistencies.  Road manners were fantastic and when the road opened up again, 65 to 70mph was extremely easy to maintain.  The cameras worked well in passing situations, the ride was quiet for a Class C and everything about it was enjoyable.

I was excited when I learned we would be carrying Coachmen Class C models as they are currently the best selling Class C in the country.  Now all I can say is, Tom can I keep this one on a permanent loaner for the Marketing Department??
