2015, Itasca Navion 24J, Diesel, 6 cylinder, Low Mileage (50,279). 2015 Itasca Navion 24J optioned with the all-important Full Body Paint in Arctic Silver ($6,370 add), CabOver Bed. Power SkyLight/Roof Vent, Heated Drainage System and Rear TV in the bedroom. There’s another TV in the kitchen. There’s a Zamp 160 Watt Solar Panel with Charge Controller added prior to delivery. There’s also a Winegard In-Motion Satellite System for the two televisions. There’s a hook-up for a third TV in one of the storage compartments on the awning side of the RV. I’ve never used any of the satellite TV’s. I think you have to subscribe with Winegard, and I never did. I always took plenty of books to read. No TV or satellite required for that. There is a quarter-sized blemish on the hood from a rock chip. It was sealed with touch-up paint. There’s a clear paint protection film on the leading edge of the hood. It has some stains, but they are on the film, not the paint. As in most RVs the gray and black tank level indicators have ceased to function. The generator had its oil and filter serviced at 99.5 hours of run time. It’s now only at 145 hours. The generator, which runs on propane, runs great. An installed electric trailer brake controller has been installed. New OEM Continental tires were installed around 40,000 miles. The mileage is now only 50,279. On the passenger side, the doors on the storage compartments have a shallow horizontal dent that runs across. I’ve included a picture of it. Stand back 10 or 15 feet and it’s hard to notice. On the most rear compartment door, the bottom right side is flattened for a few inches from running across a rock. There’s a picture of that as well. None of the doors leak as a result of their injuries. They just have some easily fixed cosmetic problems. The passenger side front wheel is peeling the chrome. The other wheel is fine. There’s a picture of both wheels. Now some good stuff. The refrigerator operates three different ways: Propane, Docking AC current when you’re connected, and it also runs off the RV’s battery when you’re on the road traveling. There’s an automatic mode shift that doesn’t work, but you can shift the mode manually as needed. I’ve been told the refrigerator’s auto shift is a problem with a circuit board. It’s never inconvenienced me, so I’ve never had it repaired. When manually changed from one mode to another, the fridge runs around 45 degrees. If you want it to shift from one mode to another automatically, you’ll probably need to get a new circuit board. Something I’d probably do if I were keeping the RV. The driver and passenger seats in the cab slide forward and backward. They also swivel so they can face toward the rear living area. Best of all, you can adjust the height up and down. The leather seats are scuffed in spots from use, but they are still sturdy and strong and there are no holes or rips. The front window has an accordion-like black-out blind that quickly glides across the windshield for privacy and darkness. On the driver and passenger windows there are black-out curtains that adhere via magnets to the side windows. You can’t believe how handy these have been. Also, I put in a black-out curtain between the cab and the rear of the RV. That makes it WAY easier have some privacy, and more economical to heat and cool the living part of the coach. It conveniently opens and closes on a ceiling slide. It’s one of my favorite RV add-on features. The main bedroom also has a sliding black-out curtain. Very handy. Oh, the seats around the table convert into a bed for two. The kitchen table comes out and fits down into the seats and the backs of the seats fit over the tabletop to make a good sized bed for two. It just takes thirty seconds or so to turn the kitchen into a bedroom. I can’t say enough about the added 60 pounds of propane. You’ve got the tank that comes with the RV itself, plus the two thirty pound aluminum tanks I put on the rear. If you like boondocking, you’ll love the security of having a lot of propane for the generator and refrigerator and stove and air conditioner without worrying all the time about using up and possibly running out of diesel, which can get you stranded. That happened to me with my last RV which used diesel for the generator, which is why I made sure to get a generator that ran on propane with this RV. With all the added propane, you’re able to boon-dock comfortably without worrying about running out of diesel and not being able to get back home. On the rear where I have the 60 pounds of propane, I also have a rack for carrying two five gallon diesel tanks. Having a way to carry an extra ten gallons of emergency diesel is nice too. I’ve never run out of diesel, but it’s a good feeling having some spare just in case. I’ve been changing it for fresh diesel every six months. Though I’ve been told it’s not necessary to do it that often. The cabinet under the microwave oven came like a closet for hanging clothes. But to me that was entirely too wasteful of good space. I took out the rod and put in shelves. Now I just fold the same amount of clothes and still have lots of room for a ton of other stuff; including breakable glasses, cooking pots, pans, shoes, and whatever else I can slide in. For me, it’s way better than the way it came. It would be easy to switch back if you wanted. I put in a removable wire clothesline from the ceiling for wet coats. I’ve used that A LOT. Turns out it sometimes rains while you’re RV’ing. Who knew? With the wire, you can hang wet stuff and dry them out. THere’s also a rod in the shower, so you can hang wet clothes there as well. Also in the rear, there’s a rack for two bicycles. I’ve only ever used one of the racks though. I always carrying an electric bike with me wherever I go. I would park the RV and then travel locally on the electric bicycle. It was a lot easier than prepping the RV for the road over and over every time I wanted to ride down the beach, go to a restaurant, or run to the store for eggs and bread. The electric bike would charge while the RV was traveling. You could also charge it with the generator or when docked. The bike, in case you’re wondering, is not a part of this auction. By the way, the rack for the bike, diesel, and propane, can easily be removed if you don’t need them. There are two ladders. One for getting on the RV’s roof. It’s affixed to the back of the RV. There’s also one for climbing up into the over-the-cab bedroom. It’s removable. I’m also including a class-C full cover. I’ve never used it, so it’s still in the box. There’s also a sun-screen that zips from the awning all the way to the ground. I blocks much of the sun while still allowing a breeze. FOR PAYMENT, I only accept WIRE TRANSFER or cash.
