Kathy has some good points and I agree with many of them. But I think all mid-entry door models are gas and all diesels usually have door in front of passenger seat. One of my pet peeves.
I prefer my Oreck vac over factory installed vac. The Dirt Devil (or whichever brand factory installs) bags are way too small and it usually requires going outside to change bags.
No Oven for us. A Microwave/Convection is a much better way to bake for fulltimers. Cookies, pies, cakes, bread, Turkey, bake great in our GE M/C.
Most MH's are limited with kitchen counter space, but if you're organized, you can fix Thanksgiving dinners in anything.
Two AC's should be standard on all MH's and most 5er's. Many 43' models have 3.
While some people prefer a King bed, we like a Queen. Much easier to change sheets without throwing out my back. And speaking of backs, we can use nearly any residential mattress type out on the market. RV Kings are harder to find with their odd size.
