Build quality gas vs DP
I looked at a 2001 Foretravel DP. It was the U270, their lower line at the time. Loved it. Is there any gasser that has high end build quality like that? I'm assuming not.

Snowman,
I do not know of your situation - other than your post.
BUT...for equal $$$ (UNDERLINE EQUAL), it my personal opinion that a 'good' older DP is better than a younger gasser. There are SOOOOO many factors to consider like quality, proper maintenance, usage, etc that a decision can only be based on the reality of the coaches under consideration.
Therefor, my opinion (and it is worth what you paid for it - zero), is that you should look into the current age (what maintenance is needed), what improvements you want to make and your expected usage should all help you to make a decision.
Just one more observation - our three previous gassers had the usual doghouse between us and going down the road we had to shout to each other - with our DP (the big engine down the back), we can carry on a nice conversation as we travel - next stop, nights location, future plans. We will not go back to a gasser!!!!
