Monaco Pre Rally 2015 in Pahrump, Nevada

March 14 - 21/2015  Weather 78 to 83 forecast, night low 59  - quite good for an elevation of 2700 feet.  We have moved 50 miles to the west of Las Vegas to attend a Monaco International Pre Rally.  The club rally is being held in Pahrump, Nevada.   When we told someone at the RV park in Vegas we were going to Pahrump the comment was "why?  there are only horses and whores in Pahrump"......   nice guy!  Well there is ranchers and brothels here that is true!

Actually there are quite a few nice RV parks in here and we are staying at the Best Western Pahrump Station RV Park while some of the others are staying at Preferred RV Resort.

All the Rally events are taking place at the Golden Nugget Casino.  There are about 150 Monaco coaches coming into this pre rally.   The big rally of 2,000 coaches will be in a few weeks in Pomona, California (near L.A.) but we are not attending that one as we plan to head east and meander  across the USA then north to Ontario, Canada in the next month.

Agenda for Rally includes breakfast, dinner, entertainment and seminars
There are activities and information sessions everyday for 4 days.  It gives you a chance to talk to other Monaco Coach owners and the Manufacturer about questions or travel that might be just what you want to know.   We hope to make new friends, learn lots, have some fun and of course preview the new Monaco model coaches for sale! 

Monaco Preview Party
A few years ago Monaco brand was bought out by Allied Recreation Group, and the Monaco will continue to be in production.    ARG has many coach brands - Fleetwood, Monaco, American Coach, Holiday Rambler, Trek, Safari and Beaver.  It is always a good idea to own a coach that is still in production as the company will continue to service your older model.  Ours is a 2003 and we have had many conversations with Monaco Service and been extremely satisfied with the service response and ability to still buy service parts and get assistance.  Something to keep in mind if you are looking to buy a used coach.
