Experts may say that the Tourmaster T-40 F by Gulf Stream Coach may actually increase your blood pressure due to the exhilaration of driving the amazing 330 hp Mercedes Benz powered motorhome. All kidding aside, owning the T 40 F can be very beneficial to ones health.

The Full wall slide Tourmaster T-40 F features a cedar lined, infrared dry heat sauna in the half bath and a large shower in the master bathroom in the rear of the coach for a nice cooldown. Because the sauna is infrared dry heat, this technology can be used safely in an area, such as an RV, without the risk of water or fire damage. The Toumaster boasts a 2000 watt converter, 50 watt service, 8 total batteries and 8.0 Powertec Catipillar Generator but because the sauna is so efficient it doesn’t even cause the Tourmaster to flinch.
