Thank you for the quick reply. We live in AZ and have a home rented in CT end of July. We were going to rent an RV but at $6K for 3 weeks, we started looking at ownership. We figure we could use the $6K as a deposit, and just own and get a lot more use out of it. The biggest issue is our budget around 80K and the features we want in an RV. ie: Bunkhouse, sleeping for 8 to 10 etc.. were found more with Gas coaches in the last 5 years. What we found was a lot of the older Diesel models, didn't have the bunk houses, and when you get below a 2004 model, the interior becomes too dated (wife factor). However, when we started looking at review sites, the Gas models came with lower quality materials and a lot of the reviews weren't very good. That is why I posted here. We found a Berkshire Diesel that we are going to look at in the next two days. However, we found a very clean coachmen Mirada that has all the features we like, but the reviews haven't been that good. There is just so much to learn about these vehicles, that is the reason for the post.
