Chevy Vortec vs Ford V10
I'm looking at a 2001 Coachman Mirada which came with both the Vortec 8.1 and the Ford V10. Which one is better for gas mileage, power, and reliability?

Isn't the Mirada a Class A? If so, I'm not sure the foot room or handling comments apply.
I too was not sure about the foot room as some of the Class A's use the engine cover but some raise the floor above the engine. Really never heard of saw a Mirada Class A. But many of my friends say the handling comments seem to stay on the class A's. But in our part of the world 24 foot or less wide 2 lane roads are the norm and where the pavment ends there is often a 10 to 50 foot drop. So hanling is a big deal. Also 30 to 50 mph cross winds are common for us. Most people do not need to deal with these things. Having lived in Fla for many years handling really makes little difference there.
Still say buy what you like best..
