The Chase Commander Scout, with its sleek styling, is worth looking into! Beneath its good looks, you'll find the same Ford Super Duty chassis that is found in every Chase Commander. Virtually every feature that can be found on a conventional Chase Commander will also be found in the Scout. |
So what makes them different? Well, honestly, not a great deal that is readily apparent. The original Chase Commander is built with an all-steel framework that conforms to federal shuttle bus specifications. The Chase Commander Scout is built to recreational vehicle (RVIA) standards and utilizes an all-aluminum welded framework. This unique construction gives it strength that can't be found in other RV coaches built with a wooden framework. Also, it incorporates a trussed roof system, which supports a rubber roof, the latest technology in the industry. The interior trim levels are somewhat more modest than the Chase Commander. An example is that we utilize laminate countertops instead of Corian®. There are other differences too, and we encourage you to compare the spec sheets on both units. Oh, yes, there is one other item that distinguishes the two - the Chase Commander Scout is priced about $15,000 less than a comparably equipped Chase Commander.
Also available in the Chase Commander Scout format only is a 23-foot unit which is great for shorter trips. It has no water system (toilet, shower, sink, water heater, or holding tank) and can thereby still carry a full size balloon system while still being just inches longer than an extended cab pickup truck. This handy runabout is ideal for many types of outings other than balloon adventures. |
