Advise for a 100k budget

Bear in mind that asking a question like this on the forum will get you responses of about 99% of what to buy based on what the responder's own. Everyone thinks their coach is the best brand quality and layout and you should buy what they have. Not saying folks aren't helpful but it usually ends up that you should buy what they have. Floorplan is the most critical piece. Get a floorplan you like. Some brands may have benefits over others but the quality in all motorhomes suck. Sad but true. Gas or Diesel depends on preferance. Your going to get an older diesel in your range or a new Gasser. Again, it's what you want. The new gas v-10 is bullet proof. THe only real advanages to a DP is noise and riding comfort although gas units have come a long way. FR makes a nice unit and could be ranked against winnie (they have their issues too). Have you looked at Newmar? Brand goes beyond build too, you want support - you'll need it whateer you buy. Good luck in your search, be wary of strong opinions on brand bashing, and keep an open mind.
