We are in the Spirit Lake Casino RV Park in Devil Lake, ND. There is an older (96-97) Excel Classic about 35ft. It looks like a permanent fixture here. No one home, but will keep checking!

We saw 2 Excel's heading North on I-35 in Iowa north of Des Moines today. We're staying at Cutty's Des Moines Camping Club in Grimes, IA. There are 3 here that we've seen so far. Have not been able to connect yet. It looks as though 2 are here permanently.

Tim,
You should have just driven a few more miles to Guthrie Center, IA and stayed at Tom's (wrongway) place! Just pull in the concrete drive and plug in. Don't look for any big night life in GC....The hiway is quiet as church mouse after 8:00PM... but Tom does gets a little grouchy after you've been there a week! Nice folks in GC, IA! Mighty nice.

He probably would help out by freshin' up your old rig with new one, could get you in just under the wire for the $2,000. rebate!!!

We are in Red Trails Campground in Medora, ND and yesterday a 97 Excel Legacy pulled in. I introduced myself. Dale is new to Excel as he recently purchased. He is internet active, so I gave him our site address and a happy invitation. Hope we see him in here to join in our family fun.

Since we bought our Excel, the only ones we have seen were on the dealer's lot & one that belongs to a friend of ours down the street. We have been around Texas & to Florida & back without a single sighting.

I have to agree, we've been to TX and TN this year and we've seen 2 Excels on the road. The last time was middle of July on a weekend northbound on I-65 north of L'ville. My wife said "there's the other one". I had to laugh.

We finaly saw our first Excel on our three week RV Trip of almost 4,000 mile trip. On Saturday August 16th at 12:00 noon at Doolitle rest area in Newburg, MO., mile marker 176 on West bound I-44. It looked like a new Excel rig, pulled by a white pick up. We had already past the rest stop when we saw it, otherwise we would have pulled in to meet the folks.

17 August 2008 Greenville, Texas Walmart parking lot. 36 TKE pulled by a white F-350. The coach was hitched to the truck, but the super slide was deployed. Didn't see anyone around. Not sure of the model year, but it was newer than 05.

Hello this was my 5 year at Big Vally Jamboree in Camrose Alberta Canada Aug 1st till the 4th on our walking around with our Dogs we spotted another Excel I walked over & said hello they were Terry & Linda Hanlon from Alberta also A fellow Canadian they have a new 36 TKE. We had a nice friendly chat we are hoping to get some Canadian club started as they are not many Excels in this neck of the world

We are in the Portland Fairview RV Park in Fairview, OR. Spotted a super nice and clean '97 Excel Classic 35 ft. The lady said they bought it just to live in it temporarily, while their home is being built. The lady said she had lived in it this winter here in Portland. Couldn't believe how well insulated this unit was. She said the Excel would be for sale soon. This one looks like it was setting in someones garage most of it's life....it's that nice. Oh BTW, it had Bob and Jo's RV sticker on it! (Tom-wrongway's dealer) Tom

Just pick up my 2009 33RKO and I seen lots of new and nice used Excels at RV CENTRAL in Sheldon Iowa. My first pull was 350 miles to Mt. Pleasant Iowa. Didn't see any in between. I'll keep lookin.
